Fox Creek Leather in VA. They make a great product at a good price. You'll get a lot
of responses for them and if you do a search you'll see a lot of threads on this.

I'll second the recomendation for Fox Creek, my jacket is great - BUT - if they don't have what you're looking for on-hand, be prepared for a wait. I ordered a pair of chaps in early october and cancelled the order when they told me it would be late december to mid-january.

Fox Creek. Great leather and will custom make to your size. Stitching and zippers guaranteed forever. One suggestion. Order one size larger than normal. They are cut small.

Wait for Sturgis if you can. Some pretty good deals on leather there.

Try leatherup.com, they have a great exchange/return program if you don't like your product. The prices are reasonable and the quality is better than one may expect.
