I got the same suit, just hoping it's made better than the gloves which fell apart at the seams.....

did you get them recently?

they seem fine, and if they fall apart they will be going right back to the shop, but I hope they dont, because they fit so well, the best fit ive ever had of trying on soooooo many leathers over the years

The gloves or the leathers?

I know only problem with taking them back to the shop is you might have extensive gravel rash! Anyway I'm gonna stop thinking negatively now, I've had a little off in them and they were fine

Gloves on the other hand : it's angry email time.

Do you get an annoying little fold of leather behind you knees by the way? That's one thing I've found with them - might be more to do with the fit though.

I was asking about the leathers, if you have done many miles in them? Ah right, falling apart on impact is not that good, I hope they dont :S
I think the safest thing to do is just not fall off

me too!
Had them almost a year now - not had a lot of use though as I use textiles in the rain and it's never dry.
