Default Nice Leather Shirt

I've been looking for a leather shirt to wear during the cool months and found a really nice shirt at leatherup. https://www.leatherup.com/p/Mens-Mot...rt/129636.html
After reading the reviews I went with the XXL which is to big as a shirt but works great as a jacket with a shirt underneath. I liked the shirt well enough I ordered the XL to wear like a shirt. The inside pocket is large and strong enough to carry my air weight pistol. These are well made look and feel great. Free shipping and use BIKELIFE for a 10% discount. I am not connected with this company other than as a customer.

How would you clean a leather shirt?

Exactly. I thought the same thing. Once you pit it all out, then what?

I was thinking about one of these as a light jacket to wear over a Tshirt and possibly a sweatshirt. How tall/weight etc. are you so I could have a point of reference? I am 6' 235 with a bit of a belly and normally wear an XL, but hate things snug, so was curious.
Thanks

I looked at those, but the wife bought me a horsehide from Hillside for Christmas. I wear it like a light jacket and absolutely love it. It gets worn more than any other leathers I have.

I am 6' 210 48 inch chest. The XXL is fine for a jacket but too big for a shirt. I've ordered an XL as a shirt which should arrive on Friday, I'll post how it fits.

Very nice stuff... now you've peaked my interest. I often ride from NY to Ottawa, only to return late at night with cool temps... not cool enough to justify a jacket, but kinda cool for a t-shirt. This would be great to keep in my saddlebag and throw on if needed... thanks

I've had mine for 5 years, I have never thought of taking a wiff of the pits. It just smells like any other leather; bar smells of stale beer, cigar smoke, cheap booze and cheaper women!

And BBQ!!

Hey ... You've got my shirt!!!

I got one years ago at an Easyrider Rodeo event ... Paid $75.00 for it and it's light, warm, easy to stash and I too never thought to give the armpits a whiff.

There's a big difference between the Leatherup and the Hillside in price ... Wow
