    Peoples, am looking to buy a leather jacket, not that I'm going to need more
    protection than my R-jays jacket if I come off the postie, but a leather
    jacket is a tad more versatile once off the bike...

    Suggestions?
    Looked at Mars Leathers in Elizabeth St, they have one I like, basic clean,
    no buttons or buckles all over the place for $500.
    Alternatively I'm told the Vic Market has them for $100...
    Quality difference for sure... how much of one? What're other people
    wearing, pay for them?

    Comments, suggestions and flames appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Adrian

    Thanks.
    Just looked at Underdog's and Torrinis - both these suppliers either have
    brightly coloured jackets, or so-called Brando jackets.
    Is it too much to ask for a plain black leather jacket, with no obnoxious
    flaps, studs, buttons, buckles etc?!

    Will go visit the Vic Market tomorrow. Anyone in Melb know if all the stalls
    are open tomorrow?

    Cheers,
    Adrian.

  8. So you missed the bit (or 14 bits, rather) where Underdog tell you that you
    can and are, indeed, encouraged to choose your own colour scheme... all
    black included.

    You don't HAVE to be counter cultural ALL the time IK - you can go with the flow
    occasionally, your dick won't drop off (and if it does stick it in the drawer
    and call yourself a lesbian :)

    Check Thursday's Trading Post. There'll be a flood of cheap Daineses
    after Saturday's auction in North Melbourne.
