I am not trying to put the WV equipment down, it's just that for me, the fit / feel did not sell me on the product. Just the opposite.

Try them on, then decide for yourself. And not just on the outside, put on a shirt and pants over them to really be sure how they fit / feel. But try them on before you buy !

Here's my choice, and get this, I own the honigs K-1, Wilson, not sure what model, has a cusion in the chest area, gray in color and the new GD. My wife is about to kill me but the K-1 is by far the best fitting to me. The only thing, I did not have the lower part that protected the navel (belly button) area.

Now, I just bought the GD this year and it feels good, light. The Wilson, it's bulky, I lost some weight and it maybe too big for me now. But I do like the cusion, I have taken two off of that and it just vibrates. The Wilson seems to create a more suspension or recoil after taking a ball off of it.
