Think Arlen Ness do a set. I have there normal cow leathers and they seem OK, never crashed tested them yet.

Seem to be quite a few racers now wearing Arlen Ness leathers so the name is getting out there.

Logyk - bought myself the Wolf Kangaroo leather trousers last weekend - fantastic. Really comfortable, good all round fit and all the protection you'd need. Can't fault them, going back for the jacket just as soon as I've distracted the Bank Manager !!

I tried the Arlen Ness, the All Stars and to be perfedctly honest none of them really did it for me. Pulled on the Wolf ones and walked out with them on (via the till).

I bought Wolf kanga leathers about 18 months ago really comfy and very light probably 1/3 lighter than my old set.They have worn very well and would certainly recomend them.
