Smile

Took a trip to J&S today. Went with the intention of buying an A* 2 piece that I tried on previously. 'Cept when I eventually got there, they didn't fit aswell as I remembered.

Blah blah, tried on some IXS ones. Seem to fit well, leather seems softer etc. But I don't want to buy them if they're going to fall apart, so just after some info.

cheers Thumbs Up

Got an IXS jacket.

Lining in one of the inside pockets was ripped within 4 weeks but I put that down to a one-off fault because the rest of the jacket is ace. Thumbs Up

i have some ixs leathers. The 'build quality' isnt quite as good as some leathers but is ok. The trouser zip stiching has come aprt on mine, but that is gonne be partly due to my growing waistline.

For the same price of the nearly new ixs leathers, i later got an older scruffier one piece dianese which is much better.

Id suggest getting something second hand off ebay that is cheap because its a bit scruffy
