The decals are printed using permanent solvent inks, giving a high class finish with no need to put a further protective cover on. We can print directly onto any brand of leathers and can also supply printed patches for customers to get sewn onto their own suits. We also offer stick-on patches. The leather used is 0.7/0.9mm thickness making it extremely conformable. They come with a special adhesive backing so there’s no need to stitch them on if you don’t want to. They adhere to even difficult areas including seams and solid humps. We work with many of the current racers at all levels. Any brand of leathers can be printed onto. Damaged original brand logos (screen print, sewn on leather lettering/patches can be replaced with our print style) For further details please see our ‘Leather Repairs’ section.
“I had been looking for someone to place logos on my leathers for years, after a few years of horrible self glued on attempts and leather repair shops refusing to touch a suit, I stumbled across Tim and Gail in the paddock 2 years ago. Many suits done by them later and crashed suits repaired (which would have been retired other wise) I would have saved money using them. Tim and Gail deliver the best service (often a quick repair between weekends… sorry 🙂 ) deliver on time, if not before and do a top quality job! As long as they don’t get sick of me throwing suits at them I will always be a costumer.
What I would say is : Motorcyclists always want a bargain. Xpress Racewear provide an international standard product delivered with a top level Kiwi attitude.The proof of value and service is that their work is everywhere at the racetrack. I will be back in a flash.
Absolutely stoked with the suit!😍
Couldn’t recommend their work enough! I’ve had patches etc before but theses are a cut above traditional patches. 10/10. thanks guys!
Had my suit repaired by Tim and Gail after yet another crash, and had the areas recoloured, couldn’t be happier with the results. I also had some logos and lettering added and it looks very professional and tidy, will be using again in the future, hopefully not too soon…
The Xpress Racewear team never fail to amaze me with what they’re able to pull off In regards to not only my Leathers, but also all of the team gear! These guys do an unbelievably professional job whilst still being a small enough outfit to take time and care in their work and dealings with me, even with the tricky jobs I bring them from time to time 😉 Thanks guys!”
You guys are the best, top quality work and knew exactly what I wanted and gave me heaps of options to choose from.
Thanks Tim and Gail.
The team at Xpress Racewear have always delivered exceptional quality, even given the restricted time-frames I have sometimes given them to work with! Also, Tim and Gail’s ability to bring a crashed suit back to life again is incredible. Highly recommended!
