    Decent ladies' leathers?

    Hey Ladies!

    I know there are a few of you out there who do a fair bit of track time and who know your stuff… so I have a question.

    Who do you get your one piece leathers from? I'm a size 8 and have really struggled to find a decent one piece that actually fits…At the moment I use a 2 piece suit made by the lovely Kerry at MSW, but there are some awesome looking suits out there and I want one! Any recommendations/ideas would be much appreciated

    Whilst I'm not a lady...I often ride like one. Get hold of Dusty at Leda Leathers. There's nothing that comes close to a taylor made suit when it comes to eating asphalt. Don't ask me how I know this. But his gear is top shelf.

    Size 8 - fark woman, eat a pie

    I recently purchased an Alpinestars Onsie. The Stella Anouke Suit to be exact.
    http://www.fc-moto.de/Alpinestars-St...C-Leather-Suit

    Looked everywhere, talked to local dealers, even went upto Aucks in search of one. All the dealers I went to didn't have alot of stock to choose from, they had catalogues for you to order from

    So we looked online, then went to the local dealer to see if they could match the GREAT price but unfortunately they were going to charge almost $700 more.

    Have a crack at Motomail.
    I have purchased many leather suits in one form or another and have had great success.
    Plenty to choose from and you can try before you buy to get one that fits good.

    I can't believe it took 7 posts to turn to smut.
    Cause any lady in leather gets a big ups from me.....

    i tried a 1 tonne the zips are shit, but the rest ain't so bad, not sure if they do ladies.
    Never crashed in it though.

    NZ custom made would of course be bestest.

    Can't Kerry design and make you one?
    Or how about Qmoto http://www.qmoto.co.nz/custom-gear A bit off the beaten track for you, though.

    Go to MSW, Kerry is really good.
    A suit that fits is safer and better looking.
    Off the shelf suits cannot compare.
    And she is cool.
    And you support a NZ business woman.

    Awesome, yeah their Stella suit is gorgeous but I'm just scared to order online incase the sizing isn't right… how did you find it? I do have the Alpinestars Vika gear which is awesome and fits well, but I'm a 36 top and 38 pants so a onesie might be tricky… If you found the sizing accurate though that's a good sign!

    And yeah, funny you say that I just finished Steak and Mushy pie for playtime food haha! Great minds think alike aye

    Thanks all, it's looking like made to measure might be the best option, Kerry at MSW is rad but I just like the shiny flash A-Stars and Dainese ones with titanium bits and cool colours haha… yeah, too much of a girl sometimes!

    You're all right though, better fitting is safer.
