Another satisfied Leatherup customer. Get a size larger than you normally would. I usually wear a large, got an X-large jacket and fits fine. Well built, thick leather, good quality fasteners. If it makes any difference, it was made in Pakistan.

 

Another one for Leatherup.com. I bought a jacket and chaps from them. I ordered the size i normally wore, and i had to send the chaps back cause they were a little too tight for me. But their return policy is really good.

 

You're right about hillsideusa. Same quality jackets as fox creek with slightly different designs for about $150 less. I think they're made by the same company.

 

I have found my Fox Creek Jacket, Vest and Gloves, bought separately over about a three year time frame, to be of the highest quality. Their service has been equal to the product. I'm sure that there are others, but these folks are hard to beat.

 

I forgot to add that I got this jacket through Leatherup, unlike everyone else mine actually was a bit bigger than expected. Returned with no problems, I think the sizing issue comes from the multiple brands they carry all being sized differently.

 

+1 Customer service goes out of their way to make things right if a problem arises.

 

If you want to get the good leather cheap, you can always buy used on Ebay. My Fox Creek chaps cost $50. My Schott cafe racer was $100, used. My Schott Perfecto was $250 new on Ebay from a company selling them at closeout prices. You can get good leather cheap, with a little effort.

It's easy to find good deals on Schott jackets on Ebay. For chaps, harley davidson are the most common, but they're Chinese. I don't wear leather pants because I actually ride my motorcycle every day and I'm not going to work in the same pair of leather pants every day (and I'm really not buying a big pair of leather pants that go over my others, so I look like a senior citizen with some Depends on). My advice is, try some chaps.

 

+++1 on LeatherUp as well. Have made many purchases from them and have been very pleased with all of them. They have a great jean style of leather overpants that work just like chaps only better because of the full coverage. Here is a link: http://www.leatherup.com/p/Leather-C...aps/54767.html You will not believe how heavy duty these things are, and they don't make you "...look like a senior citizen with some Depends on" as brenn opined

 

Kerr leather.... Had one of their jackets for over 10 years. Made in USA and really nice

 

I had a Kerr jackt and vest both need replacing after years 10+ but I dont think they're in buisness any more, I googled, just used stuff on ebay comes up. Too bad cause they had super quality stuff!
