Default Harley Jackets

Anyone know who hd subs out the jacket making to?? They make a nice textile jacket but it's covered with HD logos and I'm not into the look. Maybe if I find out who hte original maker is I could get something close with out the logos.

I think this is the one I was looking at

Personally i think you should check into the Joe Rocket and LBZ brands. THey have some very sharp looking mesh jackets. THey even have removable liners in them for those brisk rides.

Hey Skid, I just bought that very same jacket and it is great. I am in the same boat, don't care for all the logo's. I looked at the Joe
Rocket jackets and some other styles but kept coming back to the HD. What I like about the Transformation jacket is that it gives you three options in one. The other day riding to work, there was just enough chill in the air that I put on the outer skin, and on the ride home, took it off to ride with the mesh. Great jacket.

There's a good chance the jacket is made in China as most ofHarleys clothing items are. I can imagine a great deal of difficulty in trying to have one made without the logo on it.

The FXRG Textile jacket is very subtle w/ the HD logos, ITs a great jacket, can ride up to 80 degrees& down to the 20s (w/ a sweatshirt underneath) Its expensive ($400) But I only need 1 jacket

I thought the same thing about all the logos, but I bought it anyways. I don't see the logos when I'm riding. It is a great jacket very functional.

WOWsers. $275 for a non-leather jacket. I'll stick with my golf gore-tex jacket. Waterproof, lightweight and warm enough for a slight chill. $65.

Golf jacket eh? I bet that offers a lot of protection if you slide . .
