I have some perfectly good jackets and pants that are too big. As most people get bigger as opposed to smaller, I figured that maybe some of you have jackets and pants that are too small.
How about a gear trade?
I have a size 44 Vanson perf jacket, a size 42 Vanson jacket, adjustable waist (around 38 waist + or - a couple inches) Vanson textile pants and adjustable waist (34-36) Vanson leather pants.
I will probably post in other sections later, but I wanted to try local first so we can easily see what we are swapping.
I have a 42 Non perf Vanson jacket with zip open vents. Both sleeve zippers have been replaced with YKK zips at Johnson. They did the vents in the front as well. It a little faded but still perfectly good. Comes with Hard armor in the back and elbows/forearms.
Also have 36 Pants with Hard knees. This seems close to what you have but if you want to make a deal for the vented jacket let me know.
Im gettin fat.
Hi Tim
I may be interested in the textile pants. I don't have anything moto related to trade but I'm sure arrangments could be made.
Do I sense a clothing swap starting? My inner fashion-forward side thinks this is a great idea on a larger scale. I know my girlfriend has some perfectly good Dainese boots as well as pants that she just doesn't use. Occasionally I find that I'm not wearing some gear that often anymore. It might be beneficial to get it all posted in one place to see if others are interested in swapping. I dunno. Maybe that's just redundant with the For Sale section working perfectly fine here.

I am all for this turning into a swap thread for all. What size are the boots and pants? My wife may be interested.

Sure, I like trading things for slips of paper with dead president's faces, as well ;)

Nothing hides fat like perforated leather! I am up for trading my perf, but your stuff is still a bit too big. I am hoping for a size 38 or 40 jacket and size 30 to 32 pants.

Sorry I missed you while you were in the city. Yesterday's events kept me away from looking at the DMF.
I don't "think" I need any gear. Probably be intrested in bling for the bike though.

I've got an excellent condition Ducati (by Dainese) Historical Jacket, Size M, that I'd like to trade for a small.
...or sell so I can buy a small. 8)
I can post pics if anyone wants to see it.
