Alrighhhhhhhht, gigedy gigedy. That's more like it

Oooh someone watches Family Guy... lol

Gracie they look good, but they also look huge... they sure they're yours? I thought leathers were meant to be a neater fit than that.

I like the black and white look though.

Oi you - I'm just trying to be helpful! We can't help if we can't see them in the position they're meant to be worn in!

I know.. I soon changed my mind to agree with you

It's difficult to judge the fit of leathers until you see them on the person and that person on their bike. Just remember that a good set of leathers is perfect for riding in, not walking around in. My one-piece looks like crap when I'm standing up, but fits like a glove when I'm in the racer crouch position.

definately mine - i designed the suit

riiight ok, went out on the bike in them today - couldnt even get my leg over the bike at first - required some very interesting positions on the pavement with my friend laughing and pointing

as far as i can feel they are tight in the right places, the stretch panels stretch and all that, but they are too long in others -everywhere with padding is snug, but the arms seem long and the body is long too - like i was meant to be an inch taller. i already planned to ring up and query this but as i know they're closed atm for easter i cant, and i personally think its a hell of a lot safer to ride around with leathers that are too long in the arm than with the ill fitting textiles i was using before

Well it's good that everything fits in the right places - shame about the sleeves - hope they can sort that out for you. I am in no position to talk - my trousers (textiles) dont fit properly... but thats what I get for being a skinny waife with hips. Size 6 and they are still too big.
