honestly.. the best place to go is travel about 50-100 miles away from home into a backwoods farming community and find the local "western wear/general store". high quality leather on the cheap
dont buy leather from anyone who has anything to do with motorycles. it will always be over priced and relatively cheap quality.
go to the people who wear leather as a matter of function and tradition. cowboys!

Cant beat Fox Creek ! I own a jacket (classic I), two pairs of deer skin gloves, a belt and a tool pouch. They are of the highest quality. You buy it once and it lasts a good long time (maybe forever!). Plus its made in the U.S. That still matters to some of us.

+1 You will be amazed at the quality of most leatherup products. My armored leather jacket is of the highest quality with many nice features for $150 in a 4xl. Not made in the US though.
