Best leather jackets?

If you really want the best, get a Vanson. Langlitz makes a good jacket as well, but they have fewer choices in styles.
If you don't want to spend quite that much $$$, Fox Creek makes a great product for substantially less than the Vanson. Not in the same league as Vanson, but you'd still be happy with it.

I just got my 1st Harley, and I got a new Harley leather to go with it. I love it, fits great and is warm. I haven't seen anyone here mention Brooks. I have one, it's thick well built, and they have been around probably longer than most.

Took me a year to find a jacket that was the quality I wanted at a price I was willing to pay. Took a chance on leatherup.com and I have to say it is far and away the best riding jacket I've ever owned. Flat refuse to pay mega dollars for a jacket just because it says Harley-Davidson on it, and have yet to see a single one in person that is even remotely the weight and quality of the one I own. May have to break down and order new chaps from them, too, since all the chaps I see are wimpy leather and I say "what's the point" if they're not going to do what they're designed to do, right?!

ZIG ZAG, the jacket I'm wearing of Vanson's is kick ***. The white part actually GLOWS IN THE DARK.. Front and Back Glows this bright *** GREEN!! Looks so cool!
They were made in Fall River Massachusetts they had thier own factory which since I lived on Cape Cod could go there all the time. Unfortunately, due to economic times they've moved their factory outside the US..
I am 100% AMERICAN supporter but because of the quality and value (TO ME) I will continue to buy VANSON.. However, I don't think I will need another one for awhile. I have about 10 VANSON jackets now!
Good Luck on your decision!

Nice to see so many plugging Vanson and Schott.
I have a cool old Schott Perfecto I love. And a Vanson Continental Comet I ride almost every day here in L.A. I also have a cool vintage Brooks I got for cheap.
They are all heads and shoulders above the Harley stuff, I have to say. Feels like you are wearing a T-shirt in any one of my jackets, but the leather is thick.
Details like double zippers, well designed collars, etc, really make a huge difference in terms of the job they do and the comfort on the ride.
