I swear by FCL. Their stuff is all top-notch. I've had my Classic jacket from them for 3 yrs now and it's good for temps from about 40* up to 90*. Very heavy quality leather and heavy duty zippers, plenty of vents and quality snaps. Even the pocket liners are durable (a common weak point in leather jackets).

My elkskin gloves from FCL are very durable and saved me from some serious road rash in a crash 4 yrs ago at freeway speeds.

Been wearing my braided vented jacket for 5 years. Still in perfect shape. Had to put the Doc Bailey's to it but it looks like new. And I ride a lot in all weather. FCL is awesome.

Fox Creek Leather makes the best products/jackets I have ever bought. They do run tight. I don't use the liner, but if I were to ask, I know they would make any adjustments I wanted.

Ditto. I would not buy from anyone else. Their belt is the best I have ever owned almost 7 years old, wear it every day and like brand new.
If you do a review of your puchase with a picture they may send you a $25 gift certificate. I got one.

Recent FCL Vented Racing jacket owner here as well. Love it! The quality at that price is unheard of in these parts. I always get comments on it.

Cheers

I have always heard their quality is outstanding....their stuff is supposed to be American made.....Question is why is all of their stuff sized for little people instead of Americans.....everyone keeps saying be sure to order a few sizes larger than normal.....why is that??? Is it that there sizes are for Mexican or Chinese folks??? Just wondering...

I filled out all of what they asked of me to get the right size for me. They did email me with a question concerning whether I wear a long or regular, it fits perfectly. I am very pleased!
