I'm new but I like my SDS armour. I did my first troop a few weeks ago and some of the more experienced members gave it a good look over and said it didn't seem as thin or brittle in places like previous SDS they'd seen.
It fits me really well, 5'10 and a bit, 34" waist and I don;t know if they were being nice but they said I actually looked really good in it.
My experience of dealing with the supplier was very good, helpful etc. I don't think everyone's had the same but I can only comment that it was good for me.
