Hotfoot Posted April 19, 2009 Report Posted April 19, 2009 I'm starting to shop for new leathers. Who do you know in Southern CA that makes custom race leathers? I am female, and would love to find someone that can make a nice set of women's leathers. I know about Z Leathers, that's what I have now, and I may very well go to him again, but I want some other options, too - my Z suit is great, but it looks like a man's suit. So, if you have a hookup on someone who does women's leathers well, please let me know. Thanks for your help! Quote
Cobie Fair Posted April 29, 2009 Report Posted April 29, 2009 Thes guys are up PCH It would be nice to have a list of the guys available, but here are few more: Bates--Long Beach. They have been around a while, had some repairs done there, work was good. NJK I think in San Clemente, don't know them but one friend liked his set. Quote
peevSTer Posted May 1, 2010 Report Posted May 1, 2010 Have you contacted Juan Lindo at Zooni leathers? He has an excellent reputation, and has done women's leathers. The Z leathers read like they weren't made for your measurements. Zooni has an website where you can play around and "build your own" leathers. A decent taylor can supply the measurements, or of course, Zooni in San Jose. I took a couple of days with "Class" and Reg Pridmore and a number of the staff there, including Reg's wife, Gigi, were wearing them. They appear to be high quality. "BARF" has some good information on leathers...(Bay Area Rider's Forum) .....sidenote: didn't know California very well. Spent some time in Lompoc with the Air Force, and a girlfriend up in Concord at one time. Juan tells me he's up in the San Franscisco area, not Southern California, so this might not meet your desire for someone local. Quote
