That's an oddly specific number - it's as though you've been counting. I would suggest there's a higher number of defenders than that.

My issue has been that the painted stitching rarely looks good up close, and any torn areas with revealed skin, hasn?t always looked the best.
Engineering wise, I don't see how they could do a skin tight suit at that scale that looks worth a damn....I can't even begin to imagine what material they'd use - at least a material that everyone wouldn't be scared of buying for fear it'll deteriorate in a few years.

They should sculpt the suit, but Engineer into it a way to loop real threads that would be the best way. If it were my company, in the areas where the suit is split, and skin is showing I'd have layered silicone inserts, actually under the suit in that localised area! I dread to image the cost, but that would certainly solve both problems.

This very well may be my first JND piece depending on how it comes out.

General preference from everyone on ordering JND in the states? Direct, or through a retailer?

I've purchased once directly from JND and once through another retailer, and my preference is direct for the customer support (when ordering from a retailer, all support requests go through the retailer, who acts as a middleman with JND). I also had to pay an import fee for the JL WW that I purchased directly from JND, but that may have been due to the higher retail cost. All in, I think it's pretty much the same cost as buying from a retailer after you factor in shipping/fees. Rewards are a different story if you purchase from a certain retailer more (JND does offer rewards though).

Just need confirmation on whether those are real white stitching or if it’s painted on? For me, fingers crossed it’s all fabric etc.
