RE: Leather jackets..crap

Hein-Gericke has high quality gear. I've had one for eighteen+ years. The dye is faded on the edges but no stitching has pulled, the zippers all work and even the lining is in great shape. It's heavy duty and comfortable.

I have always purchased my jackets and vests from Foxcreek Leathers. Best quality on the market.

No recent posts so I'll ask for updates. Recommendations for an excellent quality leather jacket. (Classic Style) I bought one off the internet, made in Singapoop or somewhere I'll never visit,paid $200+ last summer. Stitching starting to come apart in several places, 3 snaps broke, "leather pocket trim isnot leather, snaps torn away there too.Fox Creek still great quality and are they REALLY made in the USA?

Thanks, I appreciate your great ideas and suggestions.

I have one for sale it's a Harley men's XL leather FXRG.

If you're interested let me know.
Reason I'm seeling it is I just don't have the heart to do away with my old coat. Had for 30+ years and it's like an old friend to me.

Lil Joe's leathers and Espinoza's Custom leathers are excellent. Espinoza does everything custom so you choose all of the details, down to the type of leather. Prices are good too.
