Not saying this as a whole,
but usually stuff from markets are fakes,
made from inferior materials, although its your life, they might be absolutely fine, but you wont know till you crash and you need it!

Shoulder back and side protection, comfy, with removable inserts. I've got the same in black, crashed in it twice, I'm fine. £26 off their ebay shop.

There's lots of reasons they might end up on a stall.
Could be 'last years design' or maybe a known minor issue with stitching coming adrift - worth a chance isn't it.

That's not Guv, the guy in that picture looks far too respectable.

Sorry should have said, search 'voto' on ebay. I have some jeans and the black jacket from them, cost me 72 posted, both are quality items.
