Olympia Moto Sports Phantom One Piece Rainsuit

[Buck Blades]

Hey folks. Well heres my review of the above rainsuit.
From the beginning.
I was looking for a new rainsuit so like the rest of you I look around to see whats available and came across this suit. Nice looking suit. I do my home work, check the forums check Youtube, it seems to review well so I bought one.
Well this thing was falling apart as soon as I got it. I had'nt even used it, I'd only tried it on twice and one of the seems came apart.
I'd bought it online and didnt have time to send it back for replacement or repair ( iwas using it for a lengthy trip I was leaving on that weekend) so even though I knew it was a deal breaker I fixed it with epoxy.
I left on my trip and it seemed like it was holding up UNTIL...I found some rain. For about the first hour it seemed tight and then DRIP. One of the arms was leaking. Its about this time that I really begin to form opinions about this suit. Then my chest begins to feel cool. When I touch my chest I realize its not cool its wet and then shortly after that the other arm leaks. At the end of the day when I'm looking to see where the crotch leaks I find another seem has come apart.
So I manage to get home without this thing falling right off me where I begin to place reviews on various forums.
After a few days I get an email from someone saying maybe I should contact Kevin Rhea he might help, so I do telling him the same story I'm telling you.
In about a day he emails me back. His email was polite but dismissive. He starts by saying they would've been happy to fix the suit at no charge ignoring the fact that I didnt have time to send it back (I told him).
He says that one seem coming apart is rare, let alone two. 'It just doesnt happen' is exactly what he told me! He goes on to say that leaking suits is also very rare 'check the testimonials' is what he tells me. WELL GIVE ME A f---IN BREAK!  Not only have they sold me a lemon but they're not to quick to stand behind their product.
Lastly he says if I'm thinking of buying another product be very careful no product is going to be 100% waterproof especially under extreme conditions. Well if you watch his Youtube video he repeatedly claims waterproof, at least in regards to the venting zippers and the pockets and to be fair the pockets didnt leak but the venting zippers all leaked except the back ones.
Well thats my story for what its worth. I understand a lot of people have had good experiences with their products and maybe I got the one lemon in the whole bunch, but I got it and if I can get one you can get one and if thats how they treat customers they'll do it to you.

Sorry to here about your problem with the Phantom suit, I've had mine for 3 years and been very happy, no problems. I've ridden in below 30 degrees with snow falling and hours in the rain and never had a leak or wished for an electric vest. I also have their AST jacket and Ranger pants and I can say they hold hope very well in a crash. Went down at only 35mph after some idiot in a car cut me off, but other then scuff marks, no damage to the gear.

I cant describe how disappointed I was with the Phantom Rainsuit or Olympia Moto Sports.
Like Ive said, if you buy from Olympia Moto Sports I hope you get a top quality suit (like most people do) because if you dont you're essentially going to be left 'holding the bag'. And that comes right from the top.
Im not suggesting anyone has to see things my way, Im just saying thats my first hand experience.
Take Care

Their products seem to be hit or miss. Several people have had excellent results with the products. My results were similar to Buck Blades. I went through three bad AST 2 jackets in one day. The vendor I bought the jacket from refunded my money after the 3rd one. YMMV
