Looking for a pair of leather touring trousers

Post by Doctor T »

Hi Chaps. Am looking for the above trousers. I have a problem, the top of my legs are pretty wide due to playing Rugby for years before becoming disabled. I've tried lots of different styles and makes but the top of the legs are just way too tight. Can anyone recommend any i can try?

Locally, both AM Leathers https://amleathers.co.uk/ and Scott Leathers https://www.scottleathers.co.uk/ offer a "made to measure" service.

I've got a one piece "made to measue" suit from AM Leathers.

Made to measure. I’ve got BKS made to measure. Hideout leathers also will make you a pair. I wear mine all the time. But they will cost over 1k now if you tick too many boxes.
