FoxCreek......never have to worry ever again about your leather! You get what you pay for! Our rides are USA Made which cost more than overseas rockets....you want inexpensive foreign leather (unless it's HD red flag land leather, then it's more $$$)? COLD is relative to what waits for you at the end of the ride!
HMMMMMMM.......... I bought Harley's cheapest chaps, and jacket on sale last year. Both were made in the USA.

I love 'em, nothing fancy, very plain, but very good qualty.

As I posted earlier... Springfield, Mo. to Wellington, Ks. 38 degrees,, Really needed the chaps,,
Well I just got home (Houston) from Kansas.. Weather wonderfull here.. However it was 31 degrees when I left Kansas early monday morning,
I couldn't have done it without my Chaps........... 31 degrees at 70 mph is killer, I dont know how you guys up north handle this.
Here's to you..............

In my opinion.........its better to buy in person, you can get deals at bike shows very close to online pricing( after shipping costs ) plus you get to make damn sure they fit

I was against them at first cause they look a little funny in a non HA HA way, but i'll break down and buy some now. I figure, if i go out and ride in cold weather then i need the gear. The guys that are "Too Cool" for them, most likely have the bike parked in the garage for the winter. Since i just got my bike in spring i haven't been through tough winter riding yet but i plan to keep riding. The one thing that will keep me off the bike and put my in the Ford is rain. If i get cought in it thats one thing, but i'm not riding my bike away from my house when it's pouring, thats why i have my truck.

I don't ride in the rain on purpose either, unless it's for a really good cause.
