nman1 Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Wouldn`t bother personally unless they had chipped in to pay for me new gear. Having said that I do sport Fat Face and FCUK shirts so I`m being a bit hypocritical.Go for it mate if you like the look. How you getting on with them by the way, I`m still considering the AVRO for next years gear as mine is near death. Quote
hammer5 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Posted December 6, 2011 The new avro's feel like the best set of leathers I have ever owned, I tried everything from HG own stock through to Alpines irrespective of the price, just wanted a good fit. I was made up with them, took them out for a good twisty ride from Rochdale up to Devils and over to Southport met a mate, had a couple of coffee’s then flew back via A580 - was dark and cold For the 4 or so hours riding they were great, until I came to unzip them and the stitching had come away from where the zip is attached to the bottoms. If they were cheap 2nd's I would have sewn them up.Off to HG for a replacement pair. Picked them up Thursday of last week, had to get them shipped in from Germany. Not wore them yet, need to wear them in a little around the house, might do that today...They are Dianese so I am guessing the machinist had a bad day, as I wouldn't expect that to happen. Anyway 2 years guarantee to if it happens again, full refund will be made.,Ref patches, I just fancied my name on my arse and a few around the usual areas, don't know yet, just playing with the idea.BB Quote
nman1 Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 They sound good, apart that is from the dicky stitching that is butas you say Dainese is a good make and you may have got a shoddy one.I`ll take a personal rain check on giving my arse a name mate, but I know I`ve seen it on these racer blokes. Does help the comentator I suppose. Quote
Guest philgale Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 i thought about my name on them, looks good on track but if i saw someone on the road like that you would just be called a bellend and everyone will just think your a carpark rossi.don't bother...imo of coursealthough i do know somebody would can do sponsor patches if you want to do it Quote
hammer5 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Posted December 6, 2011 Get that point I'm pricing up, a good looking set of leathers look better with a variation of labels...Should stop watching TT3D. Quote
