Bought a new set of leathers of ebay a couple of weeks ago.The set has no sliders and the velcro patches are unsightly.

To be honest my knees will never see the road and im looking for idea's to either cover or remove the patch to which im afraid there will be brand new leather underneath and will look discoloured if i took them of........

I was thinking of buying a cheap pair of jacket and cutting the patch shape out then sew velcro on and attach to the trouser to hide patches.

WILL THIS WORK
or will the boots just keep taking them off???????????????????

You know ..your probably right it cant be that bad.

Its just i got a fab deal on a set of richa leather 125 in total included postage.

These are like brand new and i have check ebay and the closest price i can get is 130 for the trousers on ebay.

it just seems a shame to wear such a great set with no patches,i have searched ebay for a set of richa sliders and they nearly work out more expensive than the set of leathers i bought.

thanks anyway
