Where is there a large range of Alpinestars / Other leathers

[reAnimate]

As per the title - I'm after a pair of leather trousers, probably Alpinestars but would like to try on lots of pairs, with sliders.

I'm based near Maidenhead / Slough - any advice where to visit?

P.S. I'm 6' 4" tall so if they cater for the taller bloke then all the more better.

Who's sliders?

Possibly another member of the Village People tribute act they're forming?

Hein Gericke have a reasonable range.

Hein Gericke have lost the plot recently - their latest range of jackets and trousers (I forget the ranges name but perfect for track days) have different zips so you can't zip em together (essential for track days) unless they make a "zip converter"
Also no built in slider velcro.

They are out of stock anyways.

Or, do what I do, take advantage of the exchange rate any buy from the states. My Race Replica cost me £717 instead of £1,500.

again, a good idea but I still need to try it all on somewhere.
Where is that somewhere tho?

I was looking in a branch of J&S a little while back, they had a big range of A-stars gear, they are national so maybe one near you......

I just bought a set of Hein Gericke Pro-Sports for £179, (sale) you can zip them together but the zips won't line up unless your top and bottoms happen to be the same ratio as they designed them for. You can still zip them together its just not that stylish. My trouses definately came with velco pads too.

I have Teknic leathers which are very good quality for the money. £250 for the jacket and about £180 for the trousers with sliders. Knock armor

very please with them too

My pro-sports zip together and have velcro too. never been happier with a set of summer leathers.
