    Goatskin motorcycle gloves?

    Thanks, I have had the dubious pleasure of kissing the tarmac a few times with textile composite gloves sans knuckle decorations and emerged unscathed. Ill fitting protection can be as bad as no protection at all. Returning to the outerwear element of this forum I have to admit that Foxcreek...

    Goatskin motorcycle gloves?

    Darwin was definitely a Hells Angel.....I will be trying out Foxcreek Elk gloves but i will need undergloves since i over calculated the fit. I am not personally keen on plastic knuckle protectors on composite gloves or any studding that might aid abrasion....speeding fines in Finland hmmmmm

    Who makes Cafe Racers in Europe?

    I suppose real cafe racers spent their low wages on their bikes.....be aware that Schott USA and Schott Europe seem only connected by brand name. Scott ( not Schott) make very solid jackets.

    Technical Gear versus Horsehide on a long trip.

    my personal choice for coming off and skittling down the road is leather and the thicker the better, By technical I suppose you mean textiles with armour which are far more comfortable especially in heat and with detachable linings are more versatile so it is a question of informed choice after...

    My New Alexander Leathers 4 Pocket Roadster Smooth Steer
