Micheal James

Michael James has spent the better part of a decade figuring out, mostly the hard way, what motorcycle gear actually holds up. He's put close to 60,000 miles on a Harley Softail, run two Sturgis rallies, and worn through enough jackets and vests to know the difference between a good hide and a good sales pitch. He writes about leather quality, fit, stitching, and the stuff nobody tells you until you're already soaked on the highway. Based in Brooklyn, he still rides out most weekends and still can't parallel park a car to save his life.
