What do folk reckon to the Romero jacket from Triumph? I know it's retro styled but I reckon it would look good when riding any Triumph. I'm thinking of getting one.

Anybody know what's tops in leathers?

Fit and Finish
Durability
Crash protection.

Just wondering what everybody wears.

MJK Leathers - made in Holland. No idea if you can get them in the US.

They crash and protect exceptionally well......repeatedly!

I had a set of "Z" custom leathers made and they were absolutely top notch in every respect including price-you get what you pay for here. I used them for several years and sold them to a friend who used them for several more crashes/years. The company replaced my name with his and repaired the damages very reasonably. Good Stuff and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I'd say Vanson is at or near the top in quality and crash protection. I have their two piece kit, and a perforated for hot weather.

I have a Vanson peferated jacket that I've had for about 10 years. Problem is that it's starting to shrink. (read, I'm starting to get to fat for it)

s3hooligan,

Ah yes an honest man!!!!! My Vanson stuff has done the same thing!!! Maybe if we all complain to vanson....nah they'll just send us to weight watchers....

on a sidenote, I've discovered the most significant break through in the history of weight loss. It is mental, not chemical and will unequivocally cause any male to lose significant amounts of weight. If anybody would like to learn this important break through in weight loss just ask....oh, it's free. This is not a sales pitch...just a simple imagery that will have you dropping weight like crazy.
