Would you get this jacket?

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before, but my boss has a side business in which he sells custom motor bike gear & parts.

He recently got sent a sample of a rather nice riding jacket. The leather is supple as it’s been well milled, but the design is somewhat… flamboyant. I’m left wondering if he’s going to be able to catch much of the biker market at all with a jacket like this.

But then again, a lot of biker gear doesn’t end up in the biker market at all. A lot of it ends up in the Metalhead and Goth scenes. Which led me to think that perhaps some people here might like to get a look at said jacket, and maybe leave some thoughts as to whether or not they’d get it.

So the question remains, would you consider getting a jacket like this? And is it worth promoting to the goth and metal scenes?

Would you purchase this jacket?

And no, I cannot get you one of these jackets at wholesale. The wholesale one is already being purchased by me, for me.
