Anybody wear this stuff (I seem to recall someone here has a jacket or something)? Any thoughts on quality?

The prices are certainly good, and they make the somewhat hard to find “old-school racer” style jackets I like (i.e. cafe racer inspired, but styling that tilts toward the sport rather than the cruiser end of things).

Appreciate the commentary…the fact that you own all that stuff from them is a testament in itself.

I especially like how most of the stuff doesn’t have logos on it…hard to find quality motorcycle gear like that these days.

I have the jacket and a pair of boots from them.

As far as the jacket goes, sizes run a lil small so buy a size larger than what you think you’ll need. As for the quality it’s been pretty good over the past year. The only problems I’ve had is with the zippers. One of the pocket zippers broke and the pull tab on the main front zipper broke off. I ended up sliding a key ring through it and it works great. Even easier to grip with my gloves on now.

As for the boot, I love them. Since I ride to work every day I pretty much live in them with next to no discomfort. My only problem I’ve had is with the Xelement logo on the side of them. The “X” has sharp points and tends to get caught on my pant legs.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Dagger…the Executioner is exactly the jacket I’ve been looking at…love the classic look with the sport touches (though the name is pretty cheesy).

Glad to hear it (mostly) holds up well and appreciate the info on the sizing…that’s the hardest part about buying gear online.

…you GOTTA get the Executioner boots. I mean, come ON! Complete outfits are a must.

If I got those boots, I’d look like I was heading to the outback with the Toecutter to square off against the Main Force Patrol.

I’ve never ordered from them, so this isn’t an endorsement — but just got back from the CW Moto show and Leatherup booth was promoting the following discounts for online orders:

$20 off any order over $150 — code # 66775
10% off any size order — code # 66772

Best of luck.

Elwood I remember you posting when you got the Saddlebags from Leatherup, I’m looking at the same ones for my Vulcan 800. How have they worked out for you?

[JackTrade]

Those codes are making an order more irresistable now…

…he’s showing off the fact that he can wear shorts in November! So wrong. Nice pic, though!
