I bought a nice leather jacket (not a bike one) from ebay a while ago, very nice fits lovely but creaks like a gimp suit. Any ideas on how to stop it, bear in mind I don't want to reek of WD40...

Use that soft leather wax on it that is used on horse tack...works wonders, plus keep the leather conditioned too... Thumbs Up

Wear earphones?

My sisters KA has been making some god aweful noise for a while I told her she should get someone to have a look at it and she told me she knew how to fix it. She then turned the stereo up Laughing Out of ear out of mind.

It's not a gimp suit, it didn't come with a mask. It's a gimp jacket Rolling Eyes

Anyway, looks like standing in the rain is the only solution that dosen't involve me paying for anything, I only have huge studio type headphones, I don't want to look like a nutter now do I Laughing

Don't ask me, I clearly know nothing about it. It just creaks when you move...

I also have a boot that makes a squelch sound even when it's dry, you can hear me coming Laughing
