Good place to try out leathers in London?
 

Hey, I'm looking for a place in London with a good selection of leathers to try on from a variety of manufacturers under the £300 budget, can anyone recommend a place?

Cheers!!

Get down to your local Hein Gericke
I've always found the staff really helpful (albeit over at Farnborough)

Also get yourself signed up to 4theride They're linked with Hein Gericke and you get some good deals. Latest offer's 20% off your next purchase when you spend £300+, 15% off when you spend £200+

I like Harper's in Forest Gate because the two guys there seem to care more about appropriateness than making a sale: I've seen one of them sell a cheaper textile suit to a guy who came in looking for full leathers, just having done his DAS.

They do made to measure leathers too, think they're Wolf or some similar brand.

Me too. I bought all my lids and leathers from these guys. Always found the very helpful and friendly and pretty good price wise. Chat with them long enough and they always ended up giving me their web price instore! Bonus
