HD FXRG Expensive but worth every penny to me. I stay warm when its cold, cool when its hot and dry when it rains!

I also have the HD Nevada jacket. Has lots of pockets, some are behind the outer pockets, front and rear vents, removable liner. Keeps me warm in winter and cool in summer, up to 80* with vents open. It's pricey at $460., but should last a lifetime with proper care.

Ditto on the HD Nevada. I'm 6'2" and this jacket came in a tall length. True it vents well and the pockets are cavernous.

Fox Creek is where I am looking at the moment.. nice heavy leather, awesome stitching and I have heard their service is outstanding, not to mention they stand behind what they sell.

I have always been a fan of Wilson's, but the last few years the leather has gotten cheaper and their styles have gotten a little too 'urban' for me.

Vanson Mark II Cobra. Perforated in the front of the torso with inner flaps and vents that can be unzipped to allow air flow through in warm weather.
For winter I pull it over a windliner and a Kanetsu Airvantage electric vest. The vest has zip-on fleece sleeves as well.
Vanson makes electric liners for some of their jackets.
Vanson makes some other jackets with more perforations for those of you inclined.
My Vanson was pretty expensive, but you won't find better anywhere, and they're made in the U.S.A.
