You're showing your young age when you call it "marlborow"... Guess you're too young to know your cigarettes?

No I smoked plenty of Marlboro & Winston cigs back in the 70's just can't spell

I can't even read what the hell is on the back of that jacket. And, did you notice ALL the spelling errors on that website???

I wouldn't want to return anything to Pakistan...

You CAN find American-made leather, but it's hard... Good luck.

Not so hard. The original manufacturer of that jacket, Z Leather, in CA is still in business. There are plenty of other American manufacturers also. Just not for $200. But you get what you pay for.

I would love to find a basket-case FXR and build a copy of that bike...I would wear it on that bike.

Thanks for the heads-up. My leathers are old and I'm looking. I'm googling it now but not having much luck.

Regards,
Ken

BTW-That's my old fender skirt in my sig pic. Haven't put the "brandnew" one on yet!

Try Fox Creek Leather out of VA. GREAT leather, super customer service. 4 stars! Just got a pair of deerskin fleece lined gauntlet gloves. Comfortable and Made in the USA.
