I've been looking for a new jacket for 2 yrs. now. I've got a vintage one handed down to me from my dad when I was 15 but I've outgrown it. So I finally found one that I fell in love and bit the bullet.

It's vintage and perfect! It's a Bristol and really nice quality.

Hiya , i got a new , well second hand jacket, it cost £30 , i am almost in the nineties now ! though it looked very eighties and would clash with my  pink crash helmet.  red boots and black leather trousers oh and blue gloves an yellow, white and blue bike, its bit tight acrossthe boobs as its a guys jacket. Also has padded shoulders so i look "real hard" and scary chuckle ;D
