I picked up a track suit on ebay for very cheap. However, I have no idea what make it is, the signature plate is illegible, and may be in german?
The suit is used, but in very good condition, and I've worn all sorts of wet suits for swimming and surfing, but damn this thing is tight. I gather from burning1 and other posts, thats the way it should be. I'm planning on using it for goofing off at the local tracks and maybe some ATV/DB trails, so I didn't want to spend too much dough.
Here's a pic of the label, I just want to know who makes it:

Any takers?
I think that company used to make (not sure if they still do) the old retro cafe racer helmets from the 50's - 60's
Man, I have no idea, there is a tag inside that says Echtes Leder, and on the the soft tag, its in german first, so it probably made there. Does that narrow it down at all?
Figured it out, matches the Dieter Braun signiture, and I guess he made leathers as well as raced?
Company probably doesn't exist anymore, but its cool to know who made it!
Echtes Leder just means Genuine Leather in German; it is not a company name.
