Default Soman Harley Davidson-ever ordered from them?

Probably the wrong room, but this is the only room I ever come to.
Has anyone ever ordered anything from Soman Harley Davidson in China? They advertise Harley Davidson coats at CHEAP prices.
I e-mailed them and they told me they are the exact same coat that I would buy at my local HD dealer. I know a lot of the MoCo clothing is made in China, but still would like any feedback that anyone has?
A search of this sight shows a couple of posts from Soman trying to drum up business, but no feedback. Still gotta Google them, but any feedback here would be appreciated.

I bet they sell nice ifones and ipuds too.

I'd be very careful.

who ever they may be they are not a "Harley-Davidson" dealer

20 years ago on the streets of Hong kong, you could find exact same labelled stuff as sold at US retail outlets-- exact, probably made by the same people at the same place-- but you had it to inspect in hand before laying out your two dollars

$5 will get you $10 they are not an authorized HD dealer.

You are looking at cheap chinese knock offs.

Buyer beware!

I'd be listening to "mkguitar" on this one ..... and I'd be taking his advise ...

Ok thanks for the feedback guys. Was hoping to find someone that would say "Oh ya, I ordered a coat from these guys and it was awesome!".
Google finds very little info or feedback also. Guess it's good old Craigslist for a leather coat for the wife.
I can buy HD coats all day long on Craigslist for $100-$125, but so far haven't found a Woman's medium with a zip out hoodie for my wife. I'm sure I will enentually though.

As for keeping my money local,every HD coat I own is stamped "Made in China".
I understand that a small percentage of the purchase price stays with my local HD dealer, but if the MoCo wouldn't buy a coat from China for $50 (or less) and sell it in the states for $400 (or more) then we could all Afford to shop local.

By the way-I do shop local 95% of the time and will even pay a bit more for made in USA.

Guess every "Official" HD coat I own then is a "cheap chinese knockoff" since every one is stamped "Made in China".
No doubt-there are cheap knockoffs out there-but most of the HD MoCo comes from China.
Just sayin'
