We specialize in premium motorcycle gear including leather jackets, vests, chaps, gloves, and accessories for men and women. We've been crafting quality riding apparel since 1987.

We use premium cowhide, buffalo, nubuck, and leathers depending on the product. Our leathers are selected for durability, comfort, and protection appropriate for motorcycle riding.

Most motorcycle jackets use 1.0-1.2mm cowhide leather, providing optimal balance between protection and flexibility. Some styles use 1.2-1.4mm for maximum durability.

Yes, our jackets are handcrafted by skilled artisans using time-tested techniques. Each piece undergoes quality inspection to ensure it meets our standards before shipping.

Many of our motorcycle jackets feature built-in armor pockets at shoulders, elbows, and back. Check individual product descriptions for specific armor compatibility details.

Yes, many of our leather vests feature interior concealed carry pockets on both sides. Product descriptions specify which vests include this feature.

Prioritize quality leather (1.0mm+ thickness), armor pockets, secure closures, proper fit allowing movement, and ventilation options. Look for reinforced stitching at stress points and a fit that works in riding position.

Jackets should fit snugly without restricting movement. Sleeves should cover wrists when arms extend forward. Back length should cover your waistband while seated. Shoulders should align naturally without drooping.

The jacket should feel snug but allow full arm extension. Sleeves should reach wrists in riding position. The back should cover your waistband when leaning forward. Shoulders should align with your natural shoulder line.

Essential gear includes DOT-approved helmet, leather jacket with armor, riding gloves, boots covering ankles, and pants offering leg protection. Quality women's leather vests work great for warmer conditions.

Motorcycle leather uses thicker material (1.0mm+), reinforced stitching, and construction designed for abrasion resistance. Fashion leather prioritizes appearance over protection and typically uses thinner, less durable materials.

Start with essentials: DOT-approved helmet, leather jacket with armor, sturdy gloves, over-ankle boots, and protective pants. Invest in quality gear that protects properly, your safety shouldn't be compromised as a new rider.

Refer to our detailed size charts on each product page. Measure your chest, waist, and arm length, then compare to our charts. Contact us at (800)-537-3030 if you need personalized sizing assistance.

Measure your chest at the fullest point under your arms while keeping the measuring tape level. Measure your waist at your natural waistline. For jackets, measure the sleeve from the shoulder seam to your wrist with your arm slightly bent. Since leather vests do not have sleeves, chest and waist measurements are typically sufficient. Once you have your measurements, compare them with our size chart to find the best fit.

Measure waist where you'll wear the belt. Measure inseam from crotch to floor. Measure thigh circumference at the widest point. These three measurements ensure proper chap fit.

Most products run true to size based on our charts. Some leather items may feel snug initially but break in with wear. Product reviews often mention fit experiences for additional guidance contact us at (800)-537-3030.

For jackets, size up if you plan to layer underneath. For vests, choose the smaller size for a snug fit or larger for comfort. Contact our team for personalized recommendations based on your measurements.

Yes, if you plan to wear hoodies or thermal layers underneath, consider sizing up one size. This ensures comfortable fit without restricting movement during cold weather riding.

Absolutely. Our leather vests serve as ideal canvases for patches. The quality leather holds sewn patches securely for years.

Clean with damp cloth to remove dirt. Apply quality leather conditioner every 2-3 months. Store on wide hangers in climate-controlled spaces. Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources.

Condition leather every 2-3 months during regular use, or monthly if riding frequently in varying weather. Over-conditioning can clog pores, so apply light, even coats rather than heavy applications.

Clean and condition before storing. Hang on padded hangers in breathable garment bags, never plastic. Store in climate-controlled spaces away from sunlight. Check periodically for mold or pests.
