Riding patches ok?

[FO3Winger]

Hey there folks, I recently put my riding patches on my jumpsuit and I’m hoping they are fine. Compared to some of the photos I’ve seen where the patches cover half the leg, mine are more conservative. The bottoms of the patches end just above knee height on the inside of the leg not so much the front. These images are without the bund and cod piece.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks and Happy Easter!

I dont really a problem with the patches. They could be a little wider and rounder towards the bottom. The thigh straps need to brought up they are a little low. They should be mid thigh.

Agreed. If you were going for Lancer, I'd definitely widen them but I'd agree with what Tim mentioned above.

Ok cool, thanks for the replies @Stroker and  @Dart. I am striving for lancer so I’ll make the adjustments and update when I can!

@Stroker, @Dart Ok here’s a comparison of the new suede (minus elastic) vs old suede. Any thoughts on wether or not that looks to be Lancer spec? I’m gonna wait for a reply before I dedicate to going any further. I sure am glad I originally got two pig skins. Thanks for any input!

Ok great! As just a reference though, ending “just before the knee” would be where it’s just barely touching the knee pad? Or my actual knee cap itself? I interpreted it as the knee pad originally.

Just before the knee. As in the knee itself just as you have done.

Ok here’s the new suede with the adjusted thigh bands. I brought them to the midway point and made them tighter. How’s that look?
