sweet jacket. Its worth it. I bought a few pair of jeans a couple years back for about 450 a pair and they still look and feel like new high dollar stuff lasts. most of the time.

$1400 is a little too rich for my blood. Besides that, I had a hell of a time convincing the wife I needed a Schott to keep me warm after I convinced her I needed a 95" for safety concerns, etc.

You know, I often stare at the $1,500 hard bags I bought for my RKC and think, "$1,500 for these?"...now don't get me wrong, I love the bags, but they are SO not worth $1,500.

I think I will be taking the Langlitz route as well. The best FITTING jacket I ever had was the first "generic" brand I owned, but it started falling apart in less than 12 months. I just can't get the right fit in a Vanson or Fox Creek, so after dumping a bunch of money on standard sized leathers, I too think it's time for a custom made set of leathers.

The other thing people don't talk about is the resale value of a Langlitz. Keep and eye on eBay and you'd be surprised just how much money you can get out of one if you want/need to get out of it.

To each his/her own of course...
