This Berik suit came to Stitchsmith after its owner had an unfortunate crash at the track.
He is now ready to get back on the bike but the suit needed a few repairs and a little cosmetic work to make them pretty again.
Before and after shot of shoulder and arm.
Before and after shot of the arm. The before shot showing the damage to the leather and the kevlar panel.
The kevlar was replaced with a new panel and the hole was patched with leather, then made to disappear with a spare Berik logo.
Some touching up was needed on the back of the jacket.
Before and after of leg.
The hole in the kevlar panel was repaired in the leg. The client also requested an alteration to the legs, to remove some of the bulk around his ankle and calve when he put his boots on. This is a fairly common problem with some brands of leathers. However, it is a relatively easy fix to remove some of the excess leather to make for a more comfortable fit under your boots.
