Hi Martin

As discussed a while ago, here's a photo of me wearing my Dominator jacket, and my bike a Moto Guzzi Nuovo Falcone following my 'period' 50s GP makeover. I love the jacket, it's incredibly soft and really comfortable to wear!

Cheers mate

Hi Martin ,

Sorry I haven’t sent photos back of me in the Jacket , Saturday was the first time I’ve worn it !!

It was great , with 7 people asking where I got it from !!

Then I remembered you put cards in the pocket , so I gave them all out !!

The jacket really suits my Cafe racer GB500TT to a T !!

Check out the photos my Mate took !

Cheers

Happy Xmas !!

Hi Martin,

Well the jacket is just great and I appreciate all your help. It certainly keeps out the cold and fits, and feels, fantastic. As promised, here's a photo of me, the jacket, and the bike (pity about the ugly mug). Very nice weather for a ride around the hills east of Perth.

All the best, and thanks again for all your help. Great product at an extremely good price.

G'day Martin...............Just like to add my voice of approval to the Guzzi Falcone rider in the current Just Bikes mag re the Dominator jacket I purchased from you about 6 months ago, following our discussions at the Island Classic.

Really nice jacket, extremely happy with it, very very comfortable & very warm now winter is here & I've added the removable liner. It definitely looks the goods on my 66 Bonnie (see pic).

Thanks again & all the best.

Sam had an original Lewis Phil Read Rep suit but it shrank after 37 years so he made him a new one.

But this one has perforated leather, stretch panels and armour that hadn't been thought of then.

Check out the matching Phil Read Arai !!!!!!!!

Dear Martin, I am very happy with my jacket, it is a super fit and the quality is great. It was not surprisingly, by its very name ,cool (!!) to ride home in 30 degrees! I have also been wearing it whilst not on the bike so a great buy in my view. I highly recommend these as a second or summer jacket. Thanks again. Jerry.(The one with the bad head on the Harley!!)

Hi Martin,

As promised, I have attached a few pics from the track yesterday.

The suit was fantastic, bit stiff and awkward for the first session as expected but by the end of the day it was nicely broken in and I didn't even notice I was wearing it!

I didn't crash test it which was nice but I'm sure that if/when I do it will hold up very nicely.

Thanks mate, hope there's a photo or two in there you can use.

Cheers
Dan

Martin,

Just wanted to drop you a note and say that the jacket arrived today and is a great fit, snug as you described but at the same time it also allows plenty of movement. I was a little hesitant at first buying it over the internet sight unseen, but after receiving it today the quality and finish of the Jacket beats other well respected brands hands down.

I'll send you pic when I'm out next on my Victory.

Hi Martin,

Received the suit yesterday, wore it for 7 hours last night - didnt really want to take it off. Did 8 runs down at drag strip. Suit feels great, can feel it starting to wear in already. Sizing is perfect, nice and light, soft leather.

Thank you very much for your help in all of this. I will put up a review on SMA when I get chance. Defiantly recommended!

Hi Martin,
I got the jacket yesterday and it surpassed all my expectations. It fact it couldn't have been better. The quality and the attention to detail are fantastic. I was particularly taken with the custom touch of the name tag, and the leather is so soft and thick. The fit is perfect (as is that of the t-shirt: a great bonus). Enough raving.

Needless to say I am bound to get many compliments and questions as to where I got such a fine piece, and I will of course sing the praises of both your products and the warm, efficient service you provided. You provide the full package and in this day and age it is indeed rare. Thank you once again. I am determined to look after it and am sure it will give me many years of safe and enjoyable riding.

Perfect! cheers

Hi Martin,
I got my jacket this morning and can see why you would be gloating, one of each would be fantastic. I love it. I'm afraid the number of car crashes in Wollongong are going to rise now as the poor cagers will all stop watching the road to admire how cool I look and bump into each other - ha.
Thanks for your prompt service.

Wasn't really a sales technique, although a lady did buy two last week, because choice was too hard. only meant I like both, gloating really !!
Let me know what it fits like when you get it.

Gidday Martin, hope you're enjoying your trip.

I'd recently bought a dominator from you, I had a 'Get Off' on the weekend, I'm ok (very slight scuff marks, I was wearing your jacket, draggin jeans and boots that are a Motocross/Tourer hybrid - saved my ankle from breaking), bike is totalled.

Some slight damage to the jacket - some zips need replacing etc.

I rang and spoke to Natalie, she suggested I deal direct with Don Cristiano, So I will be sending the jacket to him and get it sorted.

Thanks for supplying me with an excellent jacket !!!!!!
Regards,

Malcom Schier

Hi Martin,

Just a quick note to say I am chuffed with the Dominator. It's comfy and fits very well. I rode out to Yarra Glen on Saturday and it was perfect the whole way, nice and warm. I took the armour out and tried it on and it looks great as a normal leather jacket. I am sure I will get plenty of wear out of it and it will serve me well. I am also very happy with the price...truly great value compared to everything else I have seen.

Cheers
