Black Skulls Women�s leather Jacket
Guest review
Something for the ladies�
The Black Skulls, a cool and unpretentious bunch from Hackney, went from a passion for customising their bikes to developing a clothing and accessories range and thank god they did!
As a biker who is always on the hunt for cool gear, I was excited to hear that they had started to produce a women�s range, and when Gareth arrived with a package for me to review I was excited and slightly nervous! Getting women�s biker clothing right is tough and producing something that is functional but cool is no mean feat.
So imagine my pure delight and relief when I opened the package to see a beautifully crafted, high quality sexy black leather jacket in size 6! The jacket is thick cow hide, but not over bearing, the zips are beautiful but feminine and after I slipped into it� I literally refused to take it off
The attention to detail is spot on, the zips are quality and stylish and there are seven pockets, all of them functional and packaged up with a lovely quilted lining. The design is based on a classic motorbike jacket with a custom twist, and all handmade in London.
Unlike most biker jackets, the waist also fits perfectly � the Black Skulls seem to really understand a woman�s proportions and how a jacket hugs you when you�re riding! Actually it was down to shed loads of testing and their pattern designer Joseph Nigoghossian.
It feels luxurious and snug but your not dragged down by the weight. It�s definitely the kind of jacket you can cruise around in and then wear it out on a night on the lash!
Ladies this is definitely one worth considering for the collection, and Gents, you know it makes sense.
Size: Bang on
Quality: Luxury/Handmade
Protection: Moderate
Sex appeal: Off the scale
So this is my first review for the gear guide, what a start! Thank god I didn�t have to lie or upset anyone! My bank account now has a dent in it courtesy of the Black Skulls, but it�s worth every penny!
