Longer Leather Jacket .....

Discussion in 'Clothing, Gadgets & Equipment' started by spxxxx, Jul 6, 2016.

  1. Hi

    I have full race leathers but sometimes like to wear armoured jeans and jacket .. problem is the jacket measures 24" from neck to bottom so like most sports ones is a little short ....

    Anyone have anything to suggest that is in the 29" approx range

    Also anyone with the Ducati scrambler jacket care to measure the length of the back for me .. can't seem to find the info online

    Thanks

    Simon

  2. I got a Dianese Mike that I wear with jeans on my monster.
    I wouldn't call it long but, on the monster, doesn't expose any builder's bum.
    The leather is really nice but it's a complete pain cleaning the flies off it.

  3. Have you tried baby wipes Wally? As soon as it gets a bit grey chuck it and use a fresh one.
    Works for me.

  4. Cheers ... I'll have a look at the suggestions
     
  5. I have just bought a jacket to give me the same option; I went for the new Alpinestars Motegi. Take a look; it fits the bill for me. :upyeah:

  8. Buy some bigger pants that go up to your nipples and keep wearing the short jacket - hey presto, no arse cleavage! Just saved you £400... My fee? Just £199.99...:smile:

    Seriously though, I have the same issue and wound up buying an armoured textile jacket from Alpinestars to go with jeans; similar protection and obviously longer but doesn't look as good IMO.

  9. Thanks Guys ....

    I've got plenty to look at and the trail master looks good but I'd have to loose the belt as it may scratch badly ...

    I've tried on a Ducati Downtown jacket which is the longest "normal" leather one I've found and is a good 5" longer than the sports jacket I have
