Underdog Leathers

[Melkor]

Underdog Leathers have a good reputation but no WA distributor.

I'd be happy to contact them on behalf of the forum and tell them about our community and ask for a sample of their work (say a pair of jacket and pants).

On that basis we could put in some orders.

However, in order to get them to be interested in distributing to us we'd need some interest.

Can i have a show of hands here who'd be looking for (or want) a new jacket and/or pants, and who would consider underdogs...

[Bulbous]

i would consider a suit (one or two piece) but would obviously have to check it out first..... bring it on some of the design looks pretty good, and for the price i guess ya can't beat it.

It would be interesting to see their pants, I'm in the process of looking for some leather pants, so the more options the better.

[Pure Power]

I am in the market for a jacket so would be interested.

check out their back protectors.. awesome value..

Melkor...ive already e-mailed them... today actually before your pole.. but maybe if we came to them as a mass.... they might sort something out

[dnd]

Yeah try to get them to send us sample. If they are good and looks good as those pics, I'd defn be buying a piece.

[Gordo]

the more outlets and choices for us the better, Tell them to open up a discount store at Harbour Town.

hey Melkor...i received this e-mail today from Underdog... rather interesting i beleive



Gday Mark,

Mate I currently dont have a Perth distributor and thats only because nobody with the right qualifications has put their hand up. In fact nobody at all as shown any interest in it. The fact of the matter is, the first qualification criteria is the ability to recognise a commercial opportunity - which proves you have some entrepreneurial spirit in you. The second qualification criteria is you must be a motorcyclist. All of our distributors are riders because it adds credibility. The third criteria is that you convince me your the right person for the job. Theres a bit of money to be made being a distributor thats for sure. Realistically Im not that hard to convince.

In fact I recently started in the US exactly this same way. The owner of ZZR1200.net approached me about it, hes now making good coin and Underdog has gone global. So if your interested in this opportunity or you know somebody else who is, please point them at me.

In the meantime if your members want products I can send small items like backprotectors, kneesliders and gloves in the post. Custom sized suits are more complex and recquire me to send a sizing video. It is much better to have a trained agent do the sizing because believe me you get some very weird shapes.

[Pure Power]

[Gordo]

what would be involved ?? Like how much time would it take up ?? and would you be required to put up big chunks of dosh ??

i would love a jacket and some gloves their gear looks great and also high quality and custom fit... you dont even get that if you pay 1000 in the shops...

[Pure Power]

Ok the owner is ringing me on Monday, it actually isn't that easy to have something made....if you get the measurements wrong then too bad so sad your stuck with something that doesn't fit!!!!

[Pure Power]

I have spoken to the owner of Underdog Leathers(Joe) and I will be at the GP nite so will let people know what the go is there, once you realise who I am. :roll:
