Who hates new leathers?

[True Blue]

I got new leather trousers, jacket and gloves today .
I was riding about in them though and I could hardly bloody move, steer or pull the levers they were so damn stiff

What make gear did you get? I had no problems with my Alpinestars leathers
But don't worry they will get looser, they should stretch about 5-10%

i love new leathers, means you've just got yourself another present!!

Got another pair of belstaff vega jeans, Omega jacket and Rapido gloves.

I'll take a pic of the stuff and post it so you can see.

I actually went in to get Alpinestars stuff, but there you go.

I was almost going to get a new pair of boots too but mine are away to Sidi to get fixed ( zip keeps busting ) and they may give me a new pair anyway.

Go take the stuff back and get Alpinestars

Yeah, Alpinestars stuff is nice but the shops round here mostly just stock one piece leather suits.

Belstaff leathers seem to be top quality. I'm well pleased with my purchases, I think I'll hang on to them

Best thing to do is just wear them round the house as much as possible. You move a lot more in your house than you will ever do whilst riding your bike, so the leather becomes really soft really quickly.

And then my family tell me i look like a prat. Did the trick though - nice soft flexible leathers
