Vendetta Men's Motorcycle Leather Jacket

After being so impressed with my purchase of the "raider" jacket, I wanted something not quite as heavy for casual use as well as for riding. I knew I wanted another first mfg. Jacket. I wasn't sure which to go with but the vendetta was described as being fairly light weight. It looked great on the photos and YouTube reviews. I was on the fence with the hood but I like the option. I like the leather of the raider better but cow hide is very heavy. The vendetta leather is obviously thinner and has a different feel. I've been getting a lot of use out it, it's an easy grab and go, not so heavy duty, similar to a trucker jacket. It's not as cumbersome sitting in the car fully buttoned up. I love how first builds these with a shorter zipper so it doesn't bunch up around the gas tank or waist when sitting in a car. I rode in high 40's with the liner but didn't need it. I like the color and slightly worn look. I'm glad I bought both, the raider is heavy duty and extremely nice and comfortable, the vendetta is similar in look but so much more practical for every day use on or off the bike. The hood is large and easy to remove or install. It will be easy to wash. My only critique would be, without the hood, the neck looks big and the leather strip that covers the zipper is only finished on one side. So without the hood, the portion that's not finished shows around the neck, looks like a dirty tan. As with my raider jacket, all seams, buttons and hardware are excellent. Still, I wish…
