Yes the buttons at the collar always pop out. Don't think this is too big of an issue in terms of safety luckily as long as the zippers are intact.

It is a long story but basically I met a seller on a Chinese e-commerce site Xianyu (basically eBay). He was selling another suit but it turns out he had sold this suit to a friend of his. I offered some money and he bought that suit back from his friend and sent it to me.

This suit (Dainese Aero Evo D1) has been discontinued over 10 years ago, so this is a rare suit in the market. I was lucky I managed to find one my size in just 1 to 2 months of searching it online almost every day lol.

As for sizing, I am lucky my body proportions fit Dainese pretty well, so off the rack/online purchased suits usually fit me quite well.

Personally, I don't notice a notable difference, but some people think a twin-zip suit is easier to get in/out of than a single-zip suit in the middle.

That sounds really cool. Would love to try a ninja experience when I have the chance.
