As some know, I returned to biking with a nice retro Cafe Racer, the new Triumh Thruxton R.
Back in 2002 I bought a 2 piece set of leathers, in black, from Dianese.
Hadn't worn them for about 8 years.
"Management" said that I should see if they still fit, and assuming they don't, sell them.
To my (and her) surprise, they fit as snugly as they did in 2002!
Looking at prices of bike gear they would cost about £750 to replace... so well chuffed.
Now I have to clean them.. the jacket is still splattered with the remains of dead insects!
