Did you ever have any joy finding some made to measure motorcycle clothes?

do a search on "Motorcycle Leathers Hull"
2 very good companies PWR and Speedsport who cater for a lot of race teams, any design any colour, and certainly half the price of BKS |

Scott leathers, but they are up in Barnard Castle so maybe too far away from you.

try christine at carrera leathers on 01763-247-365. They produce leathers tailored rather than custom built for the likes of ewen magregor and his mate charlie, and the lovley Kate

A friend of mine has BKS leathers - they cost £1,400 but are worth every penny. (so he says!)
You can get pretty much any design made to your specification. I for one would much rather have these than pay £1300 for 'off-the-peg' fashion brand leathers like Dainese that aren't anywhere near as good in terms of fit or quality. |
