Hi Folks,
Bought ok but cheapish gear to see me through DAS and tests over winter and also to make sure that biking was for me. It is and I’m hooked! but now want to get some decent gear for when the weather gets better. Looking for good jeans, urban boots and a leather jacket. Not too impressed with J and S stuff. Any recommendations in the West Midlands greatly appreciated.

There's a big J&S Accessories opened recently on the A41 out of Wolverhampton.

Edit, sorry didn't read the 'not impressed with J&S stuff', sorry.

try in the comfort of your own home - no unnecessary interactions with others - no sniggering when it doesn't fit - just the sympathy of a loved one who loves you just how you are - a fat bd.

provided you keep them clean, try on bike to see if the leg length really does cover your boots and protection doesn't dig in - 'cause once they're worn they ain't going back for a refund if they don't

as long as you have the capacity on your credit card, purchase several brands in different sizes then send back what you don't want free of charge

take magazine kit reviews with a huge pinch of salt they are just bks

If you do consider online, have a look on Sportsbikeshop. I can't recommend them enough. Ordered all of my kit from them, free delivery and free returns on most things as well I think.

And they price match on everything, i've bought quite a bit from them and has always been faultless!
