Orange County Harley in SoCal sells Lil Joe vests for $295. They run small so order bigger than usual. Call them up and order over the phone and they will mail it to you. People been having problems reaching Lil Joe's from their website.

The Fox Creek vest arrived the other day, and was a perfect fit. The quality, fit, and service gets an A+!

I kinda' miss the hand pockets, but I like the cleaner look of the Lil Joe's. either vest is a good investment. If you go with a Lil Joe's, order one size larger than you normally wear.

That's like people spending a grand for a leather pouch to carry their iPad around in. I think of that when I see a homeless guy at an off ramp with a cardboard sign looking for work.
