Smile Great leathers, good prices

this is not the common idea but i thought i would let everyone know. we just had new custom tailored riding pants made. heavy leather, emphasis on heavy. high quality, good craftmanship. 180 USD. if anyone is interested let me know and i can get it done for you. things like this are pretty cheap in korea and i have plenty of time to do it. classes are finished this week. finals are over and i have 2 1/2 months of vacation. i am not making any money on this but know how hard it can be to put together the pennies for really great armored pants. we didn't need jackets but the little shop also makes them. these are definitely not summer pants. however, i wear heavy leathers all the time. you don't scrape any less easily in the summer than in the winter. full armor pants and jackets all the time for us. you younger riders can stand more impact and use more appropriate for the weather gear. we just pour water down the pants in the miserable heat and soak our shirts. helps. anyhow, pm me if you are interested and i will make a run up to osan with your measurements and get it started. you can make arrangements for payment in a message.
