Himalaya Leathers?

While looking at crash reports on moto-jackets, I came across Himalaya leathers. The jackets look OK. Not much detail about protection. One guy had a 50mph getoff and says that the jacket does a good job of abrasion resistance. They have race suits for less that $200. Not sure if I'd buy that without reading any real review / crash test report somewhere.

Another review of this company

Anybody have experience with these leathers?

At the very least it gives them a tag line:

"Soft as Mr. M's Butt."
