Default Who makes good leathers?

Hi folks

It’s been a long time since I’ve shopped for leathers and apparently it shows . I’m still rocking a race suit I bought when I was a teenager and I’m getting a lot of sunburn on my wrists not to mention the occasional button popping open thanks to misieur Guinéss .

In my day Alpinestars were an okay brand ( if a little posey) I’ve now learned they’ve been bought out by Oxford Horrors who it is alleged produce unsafe tat.

Can anyone tell me who still produce quality (ideally tested... by someone else!) leathers - 1.4mm or thicker. Hideout used to be a good name but seem to
remember them being mostly made to measure and also misty out of my price range . Are Wolf still good? What about Furygan? Any others ?
