(Weighted) Powersuits

Does anyone have experience with powersuits? These are the things you wear under your clothes with rubber weights. Do they work and help build muscle? The ones I'm looking at range in price from $150-$400.

Never heard of them before, interesting looking.

As a note though. I am a serious Roller Skater, and guard at the local rink.
I started a couple of years ago wearing 1lb hand weights, now up to 2.5lb wrist weights.

This is several hours of Hard aerobic exercise, yes, but I have Arms now.

I'm 53 and I can say I almost have Big Guns, well relative to the skinny arms I always had.

So the concept works, I don't know how the full body weight would work.
Strength in general, but I don't know about toning specific areas.
