Looking to replace my A Stars Jaws leather jacket that got cut off me after my last spill (only got to wear it about 4 times Crying or Very sad ). Looking at the same jacket going for £250, but wondered if anyone knew of some place I might get a better price, or a similar, good quality jacket for less before I take the plunge?

Ta.

FC-Moto. I've bought numerous things from them and as the Euro is quite weak at the minute I have saved about 20-30% on my Dianese stuff. It does take a long time to arrive but I haven't had any issues so far although I did have to return some kevlar jeans at my own expense (£30 which sort of wrote of the the saving I made in the first place).

Not sure if they stock the same jacket but definitely worth a look. Thumbs Up

That's where I'm looking at the one for £250. Can't imagine getting that jacket new for much less than that, but wanted to see if anyone had recommendations other than that jacket (but in that style) as well. Good to hear that FC are a reliable source Thumbs Up

I was looking at Ixon Fuellers last night, sportsbikeshop.co.uk had 40% off them, I was quite tempted. They seem to have a lot of reductions on at the moment.

Good call. I was tempted by that jacket when I worked at Oxford's, but went for the A* as the quality seemed a bit better, and the discount was very good. But had forgotten about the Ixon stuff. Another one to consider.

Tried Richa stuff? I have an older version of their current Imola jacket and it's well made. Mega Motorcycle Store (Swindon so not far if you haven't moved house yet) are selling the current version reduced down to £120 (from £189).

I always find them to have only loads of small sizes in stock usually. Might take a drive up to have a look round again though. I used to work at a place that sold Richa, and thought it was ok back then.

Was there on the weekend, not sure what size they had the Imola in (already own so wasn't looking), but they had the Sport S in 48" and bigger and the Spear (tried them on). The Spear I liked if I'd had £150 to spend I would have bought it, the Sport S though seemed like one of those "distressed" look fashion things with no thought about comfort.
