leather jacket brands

Hi

I've been looking at used Dainese & Alpinestars leather jackets on an auction site. Are there any other brands that I should be looking at that are as good quality as these?

Erm

Scott, Joe Rocket, Hein Gericke, Rev'it, RST, Weise, Spyke, Spidi

Loads really. The main thing is the quality and thickness of the leather and the armour.

Look around, Alpinestars and Dainese are not the be all and end all.

Personally I wear Hein Gerikce textiles as I find leather a bit too restrictive and warm.

If you're buying new then try out sportsbikeshop as they have a huge selection.

Wait till the 24th November and go to Motorcycle Live, many bargains to be hand.

I got my Arlen Ness jacket for £150 instead of the £300 retail price.
