Title: Dainese Stripes Jacket
Post by: MonsterDark on April 24, 2009, 01:23:49 PM
Anyone have this jacket?  some how my other Dainese jacket has shrunk in the closet over the winter months and to be realistic i dont see myself fitting into it any time soon  :-\     So up to a 54 i go.

I saw this jacket at my local dealer and love the looks of it, nice and plain and i know the quality of Dainese is great, my old jacket took a low side and not even ripped stitching.  Before i spend $699 CND on this, does anyone have any other jackets that are the same quality and have a nice plain look about them that is a bit better on my wallet?

cheers

I have one of the Stripes in Tobacco color.

I like the starkness of the Jacket plus the vintage appearance of the leather.

The Jacket kind of looks like a fashion leather Jacket since the word Dainese is in the same color as the Jacket only raised.

It's a very nice Dainese Jacket. It is much different than all the others I have.      Dolph

Well, if you're looking for just a plain black leather jacket, check out http://www.foxcreekleather.com/ (http://www.foxcreekleather.com/).  I just can't say enough about the quality of their leather.  Prices are fair, and they'll work with you to get the fit just right.
