Before purchasing a ladies motorcycle jacket, do make sure you test the quality of the stitching of the jacket. Now, assessing the quality of the stitching does not mean simply checking whether the stitches are present or not. The assessment will have to done while keeping the basic purpose of the ladies motorcycle jacket in mind.
The first thing that you should do is check whether the jacket has been properly stitched. If there is evidence of stitches being dropped at regular intervals in your ladies motorcycle jacket, then the jacket that you are holding your hand is a poor quality product.
This is the fundamental requirement that each and every motorcycle jacket must satisfy. The stitching must be uniform and even throughout the jacket. If stitches have been dropped, then the quality of work done is very poor.
If the motorcycle jacket was any other garment, tolerating the poor quality of work may be acceptable. However, since the motorcycle rider relies on the motorcycle jacket to protect herself against injuries due to accidents, tolerating poor quality work is simply unacceptable.
If you find that the stitching is even and uniformed all over the garment and there is no evidence of any stitches being dropped, then you can proceed to the next test to determine whether the ladies motorcycle jacket is a good quality jacket or not.
One should try and determine whether the manufacturer has cut corners by using glue to paste sections of the jacket. While the use of adhesive may be normal in other garments, it is simply unacceptable in the ladies motorcycle jacket.
Caution: even the strongest adhesive will not survive a hard impact with the road.
If adhesive has been used in your ladies motorcycle jacket and if just a single stitch has been made over the pasted section, then there is absolutely no doubt that these sections would give way in the event of a crash.
Use of adhesive and single stitching drastically reduces the quality of the work done. If you find any evidence of just a single stitch throughout the jacket, then do not buy that motorcycle jacket.
Further, the extra protection incorporated into the ladies motorcycle jacket must be stitched separately onto the main garment and should be reinforced by double stitching.
The protective batting will bear the brunt of the intact with the road. If it is fixed only to the garment, the protection offered by the ladies motorcycle jacket will not be the same.
Finally, the buyer should test the spacing between the stitches.
The smaller the stitch, the stronger the jacket will be. Further, if there is a variation in the size of the stitch and if the jacket has been stitched with small as well as big stitches, then the quality of work done on the jacket will not be high.
It is only after considering these aspects of the stitching should one come to a conclusion about the quality of work done on the ladies motorcycle jacket. Slow and steady wins the motorcycle race.
