1.2 - 1.4mm and yes it does have removable armour/lining.

£114 off ebay, they look 'as new' in the pictures.

hardly worn and in perfect condition. No scuffs, scrapes or wear.


Worth a flyer.

Yep they are good quality. My mate crashed a few times in his 2pc set and they held up well. He still has them despite not having a bike for nearly 10 years.

Got a Wolf one piece, picked it up on ebay for £100, only worn half a dozen times. After trying on a new one at Excel in Feb it's the only make I've tried that fit me (I'm not an odd shape either lol). So when this came up I jumped at it. Very pleased with it, would certainly buy Wolf again.

As mentioned you can get the genuine stuff made in the uk or buy off the peg kit from retailers that is made in factories abroad, probably the same quality as other kit of the same price tag.

I have read the UK made kit is good quality and speccable. https://www.harpers.eu/msg3.htm

I have a wolf jacket. £50 from ebay. Bargain. Only had one issue and that's the rubber bit that goes on the zip ripped off the zip... :/

I have very short legs and a long back, so he did my 2 piece and its top notch!
When I took the better half to be measured he had made a lot of stuff on the pegs to sizes he said were more suitable to english average sizes and not long legged germans etc, which the factorys tend to use. Her who digs ribs fitted perfectly in a pair of bottoms and he put her a matching zip in her jacket for free while we waited! Thumbs Up

This lot just turned up today. The quality is top notch. Better stitching, more supple leather and sturdier zips than my previous A* shite.
