    I'm looking to get a leather 1 piece suit altered - shift work and a weakness for all things pie have meant that my once 'snug' leathers won't accommodate me! :(

    Can anyone recommend somewhere (preferably within travelling distance of Bracknell, Berkshire) that alters leathers in this way? It's a kangaroo leather suit, but as that's fairly common nowadays, I imagine most places can work with it?

    Thanks in advance,

    Soss

    As luck would have it these guys nine lives - Nine Lives are based in Farnborough.

    They are highly regarded and I believe they undertake all work for Dainese.

    Cheers

    Well, I tried Hill4Leather today and they've suggested that it's not going to be economical to alter the suit - that if I intend losing some weight, I should do that or accept that I need to replace the suit. Bit of a bummer, in any case I think I'll go for 2 piece with a zip next time round...
