Hayabusa Fightwear Carbon Elite Rashguard

So, I ordered a sleeveless Carbon Elite rashguard from Hayabusa Fightwear tonight. They describe it as particularly good, but I can't find any user reviews anywhere.

If anyone has used one, uses one, knows someone who uses one, or anything, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

fairly new company from what I understand... some guy kept plugging them earlier, not sure if he worked for them or what... sounded like it, or a nuthugger... whatever.

in my years here, no, havent seen any reviews on it.

ps: I find it funny how "they describe it as particularly good" rofl... ofcourse there not gonna say "my gear suxorz"

it better withstand bullets and make me super strong, otherwise i would never pay that much for a rashguard. I think there like 44$ before shiping, correct me if i'm wrong.

Yeah... for an Elite style.

I ordered a Carbon Elite style, which came to $54.99 American before shipping. The advantage though, is that shipping is a flat rate of $7.00.

It's expensive, but I figured I'd give it a shot. It has a list of features that this particular rashguard contains - things that my Atama rashguard never claimed to have - so I bought it.

At the very least, it looks nice, and Customer Service is very good. I ordered a Medium, but emailed them asking if I needed a small, and they switched it for me. In three hours from ordering it.

It sounds like the rashguard is pretty decent. I'll post a review for it after I get it, and use it a couple times.

What features you talking about?

I mean there's only so much a rashie can offer imo? You know, not riding up, sweat wicking. What makes this special?

haha I did. First time in about 7-8 months that I've had some extra money, and my gear was getting in need of replace.

As per the 'special' features, go to the official website - www.hayabusafightwear.com. It has a rather detailed rundown of their two styles of rashguard.

We'll see how it holds up. I'll write a detailed review once I give it a few runs.

Their rashguards look good.

However, since they are a Canadian company, I wish they allowed you to pay directly in Canadian dollars (I live in Canada too). That way I don't get the extra conversion fee added when VISA/bank converts from CAD to USD.
