    perrini jacket

    im looking for a new leather riding jacket and i found one called a perrini that looks to be great quality but i have herd very little about them. does anyone here have any experience with these? price range looks good and they appear to be suficiently padded.

    Never heard of them, there seems to be only one crappy website selling them. I'd be concerned about the build quality of them.

    how much are you looking to spend? I can attest to Rev'it's crashability.

    I think in that price range, you can do far better than a brand that is iffy at best. You can get good deals on almost all the website's closeout sections.

    Moto Market (Acton MA) has a good selection of jackets and is close by.

    Dainese is one with slimmer cut (I know they don't fit me ;-)

    They also have a sale rack that has a bunch of slimmer sized jackets.

    you should be able to find something in your range at motomarket and you have the added bonus of being able to both try it on and support someone who does a lot for motorcyclists. If you have never been there it is a really cool shop

    MotoMarket just started carrying a line of gear from the UK called Weise. It's pretty moderately priced and the quality seems to be top notch on it. I picked up a pair of the Weise Daytona gloves a few weeks ago and couldn't be happier with them. http://www.weise-clothing.co.uk/

    Just got a shift vertex suit on closeout. It's really well-constructed. Lots of good reviews too.
