G'Day guys. Well, decided it is time for a new jacket so have started having a look around. Went to MCA yesterday......unimpressed to say the least. Have had a look on Ebay but a bit wary of buying something so important online and not being able to check for fit beforehand. Anyway, any suggestions boys on places to look etc?
Cheers

Hound_dog,
If your ever in Melb, checkout Mars Leathers in Elizabeth St. I got a denim lined Brando jacket off them probably 25yrs ago and still wearing it but it is a little tighter now. Still in top nick too. Had to replace the zip a few years ago and get one seam stitched up Value for money I reckon
. It's a black one too
This guy looks pretty well tuned in on the latest leather fashions, maybe we could find out who his tailor is.
Jeez Hound dog you got some shit in your responses here.
I have just got one from http://bikersgearaustralia.com/details.php?TiD=MTcwLTIyMC0wLTc1Mg==&Txid=a60d589aed1ca1ce186f91d517600e0b I bought the Harley Jacket but am now thinking maybe I would like the Brando style now. Not that there is anything wrong with the one I have got, the leather quality is really good, the workmanship is good, the fit is good (I called them to describe my size) & the price is really good, under $200 + postage. Bought some gloves, from the same place, they are great & am now awaiting a pair of leather chaps. I am gearing up for a big (for me) ride across the big brown land from East to West & back next week, so I will be able to give a good road test on them in a cou;le of weeks time.

Got my black one from these blokes and am more than happy. Just used a tape measure and ordered, spot on.
Hey Delux, that ' worn leather" one with the shoulder pads from the early 80's big boy is mine you prick, and I even gave you a reach around FFS. You told me I never left it at your place, you said it was left at the "beat" while we were break dancing with the old Greek guy
And to think I even made out I was a "bird" and "swallowed"
All jokes aside, jackets are VERY IMPORTANT, which is why I always have my pototoes in their jackets, stops them from being "mashed"

Hey Walka, mate I dont know MUSIC??? Is that the guys screen name here?
Yes ,,, Send the guy a PM,,,, He has Jackets the Same as Biker Gear and about $50 cheaper
Hey there, i got my jacket back in '07 off ol' e-bay from bikers gears, it's a brando style (like Mr Presley would've worn). $160 delivered to my door, 5xl man, that's pretty cheap, considering there's a shit load of leather there, it must've taken a full grown fresian to supply the hide at least
look on usa ebay, some great bargins, postage is around 35-50 US...buy all my stuff from their...
hey hound dog.... how about puttin where ya are..... makes it easier to give advice .....
CC leather on the NSW central coast.... Gypsy leather on Parra Rd in Silverwater.....
