Get them repaired like I said in the other thread. People like Crowtree, Scott or Hideout can all repair them.
Hideout have rebuilt customer's suits after they have been cut off by medics.

So........
Either compare the cost of repairs against what you might get for them on e-bay, or keep them as a second rough set for messing about in shite weather on the road.
Or give them to me, free and gratis.....

Will they fit a bloke who's 4'9 with a 56 inch waist???
And do they have an attatchment on the back for a walking stick/zimmer frame...

A scrub up and a repair will see them ready for track use again. It's up to you if you just want to throw away servicable leathers.
Give them to me for nothing if you want, I'll just get them altered.

Wear them down the pub, and make up the biggest whopper you can about how they got damaged, eg I'd like to tell you more, but with the official secrets act..... but I am prone to pillow talk....
