3 years ago we had two pairs of motorcycle pants made by french leather, We got them made in a sports style, which we had a picture of. they were absolutely fantastic and the most comfortable pants we have ever had.
We got them made of cow leather which is tougher than the lamb leather that is used most of the time in bali, and to get the colour we wanted in the pants such as white or red etc, we got them to do piping, and put sections of colour wheere protection is not so vital, as in at the bottom where your boots are and between the thighs, and for the waist band part. They also put an elastic stretch section above and behind the knee, for flexibility. and put padding on the knee and hips, with extra leather.
The pants cost 90 dollars each, compared to the $390 dollars per pair which were what the original pair would have cost.
