I just saw a pic of the suit Bockel was wearing. I am sure there have been other strings about this, but does anyone know what suit that is? It doesnt look like the new octane suit, looks more breathable than that. Probably a special edition pro suit. I was just curious, because i would love to get a short sleeve suit.

If you've never seen one in person, the fabric is very thin and light. The cut on it looks the same.

There were Pearl Izumi logos on it so I agree with Heath, it was most likely a special version of the Octane

Hi trigeekjb,
I can confirm that this is an Octane suit from Pearl Izumi with some tailored tweaks for Dirk's fit preference.
