I'm going to warn you that leather is VASTLY superior to textile.

I came in here to say the same thing. I have some textile jackets and I don't wear them at all anymore. I wear all leather all the time. I have even found it to be cooler in the heat than textile, with vents of course.

On my short list is a Fox Creek jacket that I will install CE plates in. Good looks, great protection.

This is a good looking jacket though, I'll give it that.

My old leather jacket shrunck from years of...well you know.

I bought a Street & Steel's Big Easy Leather Jacket a few months ago. Great quality product, with zip out liner.

I too have found leather to be much cooler in warmer temps, also provide better protection in falls.

Textile might be good in that respect if you have all the armour inplace.

Good luck!
