Good place to try out leathers in London?

Hey, I’m looking for a place in London with a good selection of leathers to try on from a variety of manufacturers under the £300 budget, can anyone recommend a place?

Cheers!!

You should probably try Soho - Timeout lists it as an alternative culture for those interested in leather, particularly bondage :slight_smile:

If you meant motorcycle leathers, then Harpers Race Shop in Forest Gate is fantastic. £300 might get you something. Otherwise, Infinity in Holborn?

To try “a good selection” you’ll probably have to try several shops - most firms only sell a few makes each.

If you can go slightly further out of London, try George White in Slough

THanks for the replies!

I don’t mind going to several shops to try out a few makes…just need a few recommendations…

George White in Slough have a factory outlet section where you can get Spyke or Wolf leather for under £300 reduced from £650. The Swindon branch has the biggest factory outlet section though, depends if you want to travel that far. Otherwise J&S have a good range and have 20% discount on all stock but the reduction won’t compare to George White.
