Hey, over here in the states little is known about this stuff. Is it any good? The one place I've seen this stuff the prices are really reasonable and they seemed to be fairly decent leathers. Whats the word on it?

The brand is actually called

'Frank Thomas Half Price' coz everytime you see them they are on sale. Good gear, but never pay RRP!

My mate gave me some shoes when I first started on bikes, they lasted years but recently had to replace them as the sole fell off. I can't knock 'em

I have had quite a lot of Frank thomas gear over the years both leathers and all seasons gear and in my opinion its good stuff.

The found the frank thomas aqua gear allways worked excellently in the rain. And I have crash tested the leathers and they work brilliantly.

They aren't the best or most beautiful products on the market but they do their job and offer decent value for money.

Their new range is quite nice. I liked the black leathers with CF bits at the NEC. Sort of looked like ghost rider ;)

I agree with Andrew, I have an F/T two piece

Had it a few years now, and still holding up well, had a few zip repairs done, but for the money, not bad.

I think Andy has said everything.

I am in the same boat as him and would recommend it as a middle to lower end of the price range.
