Hi girls I need some ideas of where to go to get some large bike trousers for a pillion, we have got everything else, jacket(Duchinni Extra 28, 8XL),gloves, boots and helmet but the troos are frustratingly elusive.
She is quite short in the leg too just to complicate it more.
believe it or not I went to J&S in Doncaster, tried on several items that a lovely(!) young man offered me to no avail.
Was about to walk out very disappointed and spotted Tanya. She took one look at me, said follow me ... et voila ... Lewis Leathers!
Yup, short in leg, and fitted me to put me on over winter til I get the FT pair I also bought taken in for the Summer.
My advice is to go to a shop, try on several items and more importantly ask a female sales assistant to help you! I was getting really frustrated and upset go with plenty of time dont 'pop in'!!
JTS in Coalville were also really helpful but I couldnt find exactly what I wanted there. They go up to around size 30 apparently, and do make them to measure if necessary for a reasonable sum.
Hi Rowan ....yep we got all her gear from the Gearbox so far(great place to get gear from).....but no troos
