Stuck with my leathers design

I'm getting a set of made to measure 2-piece leathers but I'm stuck with the design. I have no creative gift whatsoever and other than an idea of muted, retro but modern I have no picture in my head of what I want them to look like.
The guys have put a couple of designs together but I feel like I'm getting lost so any advice or ideas would be welcome.
Design #1 (the plain one) I like except the grey to white shoulders and I'd rather the design didn't run into the trousers in a way that makes them look like a 1-piece
Design #2 (the stripey one) I like because it's a bit more unique and less race-suit. But I think it's too busy and the leg stripes will be inside my boots.

Oh, my eyes, my eyes.

I definitely won't be going down that route.
Thanks for the feedback Mac.

They look good Nick but get rid of the white.
White leather will look shite a year from now.

A few pics were posted by the guys who have made my leathers, it looks like I'll be getting an Xmas pressie.
I ignored the white haters. There's not that much and I like the idea they will age quickly.
