All types of leathers out on the market. Full face helmets are the safest, but it is what you are comfortable with. Check out Ebay on some of your leather needs. If you watch, you can find some good buys.

Just what 12Stones said. HD leather is as good as it gets in terms of functionality and quality, but it is pricey! 
I wear a full face because that's what I've always used and feel most comfortable with, especially with eyeglasses. I've put the speaker parts from a set of headphones inside mine and enjoy some tunes on longer rides.

Hello and welcome from Columbia, MO
I use the HD leather, it's made well and has all the options but, there is lots of other good stuff out there made by other folks. I love my half, i can see and hear better but like mentioned above, glasses and i think, with a foam ring to cut down the eye watering, especially on the highway, is a must.
