One of my friends from Russia, whom I met at one of the European motorbike festivals in Berlin in 2004, told me about his first experience of purchasing motorbike leathers at a reasonable price. Frankly speaking, he even said, what kinds of leathers he used in order to protect himself. That’s just the story, originally written by him and then translated by myself in English. Don’t be excited by prices of equipment given below, because in Russia they are somehow different. So, enjoy the special Russian view on motorbike leathers.

“To my mind motorbike leathers are not only a stylish thing that helps you to stand out of the crowd. The main function of the leathers is, of course, protecting a biker’s body in case of an accident. So, you need to choose motorbike leathers very carefully. Having done that, you’ll get aware from different problems, which are met by big number of people, riding bikes.

And really, nowadays you have a great possibility of getting high-quality motorbike leathers at a reasonable price. For example, let’s have a look, what I’m having at the moment.

Helmet – IXS HX 244 – about 160 $. A good helmet at not a big price. It meets all the European standards of safety, presence of ventilation, excellent glass during a rain does not collect drops. Nice thing, I’d like to say.

Jacket – IXS Rexton – 150 $. Another high-quality element of motorbike leathers at a pretty nice price. One very important point there – the protection of the back had been thrown out (it’s not a protection at all) and in addition more serious one Pro Back R was bought for 27 $ and installed, which hadn’t taken much time and effort. That’s an excellent summer variant, but in spring and autumn you need some additional things not to feel cold.

Trousers – IXS Raven – 267 $. Pretty good motorbike trousers with protection of knees and even ankles. Also there is a special heater for spring/autumn. There is a lightning for connection with a jacket, which is somehow like overalls.

Boots – Sidi Vertigo – 296 $. Very pleasant and convenient motorbike leather boots with the maximal protection for feet. Good ventilation and couple of additional features make the boots nice addition to motorbike leathers.

Gloves – AlpenStars GP Pro – 221 $. Leather gloves with carbon protection and presence of ventilation. Excellent!

I had an accident wearing all the leathers mention above. And I’d like to admit, that they executed their protective function for 100%. I hadn’t any trauma, so I was quite happy about purchasing the equipment. Beginning from that moment I haven’t even thought about saving money when buying motorbike leathers!”

Frankly speaking, I completely agree with my Russian friend and highly recommend you to purchase only high-quality and protective motorbike leathers, because they are the thing you safety depends on during riding a motorbike!

Good motorbike leathers are a symbol of your individuality. They combine style and comfort in order to be integral part of biker’s life.

The comfortableness of motorbike leathers is determined according to a position of the motorcyclist during movement. It means, that jacket should have longer sleeves with possibility of their rotation. It should be more space for shoulders, and in connection with low position of a back the motorbike jacket must be longer than usual one in order to cover the rider’s back completely. The fasteners on a motorcycle jacket should be strong enough to let neither rain, nor wind.

But notice, nowadays the motorbike leathers become more and more expensive. Due to that a lot of people ask themselves a question: “Why does that occur?” The answer is simple. High-quality leathers are produced with the use of expensive technologies, therefore the difference in the price between usual and special motorbike leathers becomes bigger and bigger.

But try to find out how often do you use your motorbike leathers and how long have you been using it. Take this total sum of days and divide by the jacket price. So, you’ll see, how much your leathers cost per day.

Or you can find out the number of kilometers which you have passed wearing the leathers (or will probably pass) by the jacket price. It should turn out, that a single kilometer cost not so much, but remember – that’s the price of your safety! Therefore it is not necessary to buy very cheap motorbike leathers, because one day they can become a thing to save your life.

Just try to imagine a biker. What comes first into your mind? A powerful motorbike (probably Harley-Davidson or Indian), long road, blood-red dusk and of course the biker himself smoking a cigarette and wearing black motorbike leathers. Really, it’s impossible to imagine a biker without those details.

The motorbike leathers are one of the main parts of biker romantics. They will say a lot about the biker himself and his temper. Every biker tries to add something special and original to his leathers that will make him stand out of the crowd and show his personality. Nowadays there are different kinds and types of motorbike leathers and each of them has its own special points. Many stores offer various clothes for biker from different leathers-producers.

Of course, if you have quite a big deal of money, you may think over the possibility of buying custom motorbike leathers,. Notice, that customized leathers are much more expensive than standard ones available on sale. But let’s be frank. Everybody knows that it’s pretty hard to find a really good tailor, who will make exactly what you need at a reasonable price. Remember, that meeting a tailor, who only measures your dimensions, but doesn’t want to listen about your design requests is a waste of time. Don’t do that! Don’t flash your time and money down the toilet!

Fortunately, there is really great choice of motorbike leathers in the Internet-stores. Nowadays they are selling everything beginning with gloves and ending with trousers. Frankly speaking, you can find a good thing at a reasonable price, because there are lots of different sales and bargains. So, don’t be afraid of standing out of the crowd!
