    Howdy, was given an old bike and would like to buy a black genuine biker jacket, particularly the ones with the criss cross padding on the upper arms/ shoulders, anybody know where to get these jackets

    Cheers

    Any bike shop. Where are you based?

    You'll need boots, trousers, gloves and a decent helmet too.
    You'll also need lessons.

    Cotters seem to be the ones most recommended on here, never been there personally. Link to their site: http://www.cottermc.com/webshop/

    Sound, thought you were a beginner. If you've been off bikes a few years I'd still recommend a lesson though.

    This to me is more of a "Heavy Metal" jacket than a biker jacket, I had one many moons ago!

    Used to be a shop on the 3rd floor of Stephens Green Shopping Centre that did these, not too sure if it's still there though
