have to agree, never heard of them

I definitely wouldnt be sending anything to them just yet
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Big shock, I'm going to say knock off! Pretty bold though, using Ducatis logo, photos and all. No contact info at all... yeah no.

Knock-offs.  Run away screaming.  I have seen a good handfull of these come through the shop.  They are garbage.  They almost look the part in the photos, but if you see it in person, you see what trash it is.

It even says right in their ad copy that they are "reproductions".

That guy has been around.

they are low quality, thin leather.  a guy in nyc bought a set.  they don't look bad from 10-15 ft away, but i would not trust my ass in them.

But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Can't you order one from the USA from Dainese D Store in San Fransisco for less than $1,000 ?

that seriously shows the markup they have

but in saying that the dollar has been really good lately so that helps
i dont care if you have been a mechanic for 10 years doing something for a long time does not make you good at it, take my gf for an example shes been walking for 28 years and still manages to fall over all the time.

Yes it is a company that use to sell on ebay also, the jackets are repliaca and are made in very high quality leathers and workmanship, email address is: info@ducatileathers.com

they are decent quality, but they are not for riding.  show only.  no armor, nothing.  leather is somewhat thin.  funny you get on this board and post twice just for this... shilling for ducatileathers.com  [thumbsup] and then never post again.
