Found the best fitting jacket EVER at the Cycle World show saturday. Soo soft, 1.4mm leather, Knox elbow and shoulder armor, and Knox CE2 back armor is a $40 option. Nicer than any A* or Dainese I've seen. The sleeves are even long enough for my gorilla arms. The WebBikeWorld review says the same things I thought on trying the jacket on. Only one little niggle was the zipper is difficult to start.

Funny thing is, it seems like they're based out of San Diego- not the UK. :lol:

Yup. Apparently they bought out Belstaff, which was big in the days of Nortons, BSAs, Bultacos, etc.

WBW seems to really like their stuff, and all the old fogies at ST.N drool over the textile jackets.

As soon as I find the money. Things are real tight right now. I won't be able to use it for probably two/three months anyway.

No doubt. I'm hoping to ride in 5 or 6 weeks.
