Default Lil Joes Legendary Leathers

Does anyone have any experience with this company? A lot of the reviews are 3-5 years old. Is the quality still as good? How do they compare to others like Legendary USA? How warm are they in the summer? I need to get a black vest and want something that will last years. Thanks.

I ordered mine from Fox Creek. Also American made, quality products, and fantastic customer service.

I have gloves from fox creek that I like a lot. My problem was the one style vest I liked had zipper pockets and I am not a fan (I am a little..a lot...particular).

I did find a Legendary USA leather vest that looks good and is cheaper than LJ. Anyone have any experience with them?

My Lil Joes SOA vest is as heavy as a nice jacket. Like a sleeve less heavy made jacket.

I have a Nomad vest from Legendary...my leather tailor says it's very well made- and a USA Union product.

I know someone with a recently purchased (last two years) LJ vest and it's a fine piece of work.

I wouldn't be concerned about their quality. I don't think I have ever heard a bad work other than they are a litttle pricey. You get what you pay for.
