G-suits - other than green?
 

Silly question of the day - I promise there's method in my madness.

Would like to find blue. NASA seems to wear blue flying suits for various functions, and as far as I know has had G-suit-eligible aircraft in the past.

In days of old, pressure jerkins were a slate blue canvas and the g-pants also skate blue. We also had white AVS as popularized on Dr Who before the Daleks.

Any chance you could translate this bit PN?

I saw a hi-gloss red patent leather one. It was in a store in San Francisco.
