too fat for last years leathers
Hi all. Would appreciate any tips for ordering biker gear online [any dodgy ones I should avoid?]
Going to treat myself to summer two piece leathers. Could just about squeeze into the winter 'gortex' c/o too much red wine and mince pies, so there's no way I'll fit into my current summer gear [ short of a gastric band! Haha] So far I fancy the ' HELD ' website or 'GEORGEWHITE', both in uk. Thanks for your thoughts Dawn x |

Re: too fat for last years leathers
they all seem to size abit different Dawn so id go to a shop direct to try on specific suits and when one fits Right get the size and order it on line.

Re: too fat for last years leathers
I am with Kwak, I purchased leathers on flea bay thinking ohhh a bargain, tried them on and didn't fit, so next ones bought a size bigger, still no good.
Go shopping and then look on the net, but there are some brill deals in the shop at the mo anyway. My RST's are so comfy and look ok ish. Happy shopping

Re: too fat for last years leathers
Yeah, sizing is very variable. You really need to try them on. You might get away with a jacket, but trousers can be very different.
PS, lose weight! |

Re: too fat for last years leathers
Try them on Dawn- honestly, Hein Gericke in particular seem odd size wise- I've got 3 different sizes of their trousers!
Then buy online, cheaper. |
