jacket
went to hd today to look for a new jacket and a new vest,my old stuff is pretty beat up and needs to be replaced ... gotta be kidding me man 500+$'s for a jacket?? there was a traditional type jacket and it was made out of crap!! said made in china right inside on the tag.... needless to say i was very disappointed with the quality ... i tried on some other jackets and really liked the fxrg jacket?? dont know if thats correct.. man that was pretty nice , but when you take the jacket off , the liner in the sleeve gets all bunched up ... couldnt deal with that every time i had to take off the jacket but other than that the jacket was pretty nice ,except for the price which was around 565$'s... too much for me.... when i got home i called fox creek leather and ordered the tradition style jacket 1..... price was a little high but i am told they make a good product .. gotta be better than what i saw at hd... anyone have this jacket????? how do you like it??? am supposed to receive it by friday .... i hope all will be good

RE: jacket
I think the quality of HD jackets ispretty good. Do a search on Fox Creek. They make top qaulity leather jackets and other stuff at a decent price. I have two jackets from them and highly recommend them. There aretons of threads on this.

Don't pay big dollars for made-in-Pakistan "Harley Motor Clothes" junk. Buy a topqualitymade-in-America"Fox Creek" or "Branded Leather" jacket for less money. I've been wearing the same Branded Leather jacket for 16 years and it's STILL a good jacket.

RE: jacket
If you are set on a Harley jacket, go into the store, try some on, find the one you like, remember the name & size(all Harley jackets have names), then search for it on ebay. Because I work at a dealership, they like us to wear the clothes, no problem, except even with my discount, the jackets are expensive. I bought a Torque jacket on ebay for $160 US.I alsogot my daughter a very highend Harley jacket off of ebay(can't remember the name of that one) from Sun Harley Davidson in Colorado, it retailed for$499 US and I got it for$85 US. It was the last one and it was an xs and they just couldn't move it.

I have the FXRG jacket as well as the Fox Creek Classic II. They are both great the FC is much thicker leather (heavier). I think you will really enjoy the fox creek.
