Who makes a good 11s GOLD chain?

I don't know my chains. Always went with whatever drivetrain I was using. Who makes a good 11s GOLD chain?

Thanks.

KMC is what you want. I just bought a new gold 11 speed SL, I have them on all my bikes.

I was gonna say Flava-Flav, but you're probably correct; it's Run DMC!

When it comes to chains "good" and "gold" should not be in this same sentence.

YBN makes some. I like mine, and the ones customers have bought. The one customer who is an actual good (albeit sample size of one person) tester of gear, has gotten 10-15% more miles out of his YBNs than his DA/Ultegra chains.

Please do.
I got one but couldn't get myself to use it after I put it on...
Just too much bling for me.
