    Degsy's right. Brockton is the Fieldsheer distributor and they'll have the size and color you want in stock. They usually have good prices to, my friend and I bought our leathers there, mine were on the rack but my friend wanted a different color. The guy behind the counter said they had the right suit in the warehouse, and by the time we had paid for the suits, he had gone to the warehouse and picked it up for us, not to mention they were in the process of closing. We were very happy with the suits and the service was awesome! Good Luck!

    I bought a Fieldsheer Airspeed from Brockton Cycles... love it... I actually bought it at the Americade Rally in NY from them... so I got the "show" price... $169... lists on their site for $239...

    Anyway... that would be the place to go... I was pleased with their service as well..

    Yup, I'm with Vince!! I guess we'd be better off wearing a T-shirt and shorts! If there is a reason, I'd love to hear it!

    its a good idea to try them on and then order online like you said. You can almost always find it cheaper online. As far as RI shops having stock, I havent found any with much. Razee's in NK might have a few.

    If you're sold on Fieldsheer, Brockton Cycle is the place to go, especially since they are the American distributor for them. But, Fieldsheer has had a bad reputation for poor quality materials and stitching.

    Joe Rocket has a better reputation and can be found almost anywhere.

    Since you're in Warwick, you might try Vanson. They are located in Fall River in one of the old mill buildings. When you walk in, immediately on the right, they have an overstock and seconds rack. Take a look at the stuff available there. They usually stock some used stuff from track schools and other things that they need to get rid of. It's not unusual to find new, one or two piece suits, normally $800-$1500 go for $150-$350.
