Sorry....I should have followed strict protocol and stayed on topic. Wouldn't want to start a trend of taking the conversation in a different direction. That NEVER happens here.

I'm not a logo kinda guy! Simple as that. Simple being the key word. Sorry I asked?

I shelled out the $$$ for the FXRG leather jacket last year.
Best jacket I've ever owned and in my opinion looks really good.

I bought a Harley jacket and Harley boots, and they`re right up there with the quality of any other fine product. In fact, the boots softened up just right to fit my feet perfectly. `Don`t get any sores on my feet and I don`t use high socks anymore.

So use the HD bucks to buy a nice jacket. Sell it on ebay for slightly less than retail, then take the cash and get exactly what you want

I always think Harleys would sell more not only jackets but tee shirts as well if they gave buyers a choice of clothing with just a small logo on it instead of everything being this billboard stuff, as far as the OP is concerned this is a pretty good jacket, its got a couple of logo's on it, but they're smallish.

Doesn't get much more traditional than that, and not a single Logo on the thing.
I recently picked up the El Camino II jacket off the dealer's closeout rack for $225. It was too good a deal to turn down. The only logos are embossed on the buttons. Barely noticeable.

As I said on another thread, I think Harley clothing is of decent quality. My guess is they still have high standards for the end result, if not where it's produced. If I had to cash in Harley bucks, I would be very happy to have that jacket. If I had to spend my own $$, I would buy Fox Creek.

With that being said though, I really do think this jacket is cool looking and will probably be purchasing it very soon. I will probably have to beat the women off of me when I wear it!

Why would you do a fool thing like that?
