I'll give you my experiences:

3 shirts- two navy, 1 powder. The powder was fitted perfectly, but both navy had really tight cuffs on the upper arm, mde me look like Ed Hoculi (?). The shirt material is the softer kinda, not like the Honigs shirts. I've had a couple of small pulls from where my velcro from my mask hits. Overall not bad.

Two Jackets: Arms seemed short. Everytime I made a signal it rode up halfway to the elbow. My biggest complaint is that the liner ripped/pulled/was undone after just one wearing and washing as directed. Complained about the first one, got the second one as a replacement, and it did the same thing. I'm taking them to a seamstress to get relined, one with a mesh, and another with maybe a thicked mesh or fleece type thing (Early spring games in the north).

Pants: Haven't worn these but have had several partners that have. Seem to be a little fuller cut. More like the athletic cut from Honigs. However in my opinion they seemed to look cheap, like walmart editions. Could have be older models but just what I thought. Also they seemed to wrinkle easily and snag/pull/pill in certain areas. I noticed that on some of the pairs. Also it seemed like they developed a noticable wear pattern in the knee where the shinnie rubbed.

Again this is what I noticed. I think that the products are getting better though. I had one partner that had the navy shirt that the collar was shifted around the neck and one side was lower than the other.
