Checking to see if anyone has dealt with http://www.foxcreekleather.com/?

Its only a 2 hour drive from Charlotte. Seems pricy for a leather Jacket but being a big guy I havn't seen many option for me in any ridding apparel.

The last jacket I ordered was from a motorcycle apparel company, it was the biggest size they offered and I could not move when I zipped it up.

Let me know if you have used fox creek and your experience with their product.

I have several items from Fox Creek Leather.

I would highly recommend them. Top quality leathers, customer service and made in the USA.

In my opinion, that is the best that money can buy. Nothing but quality!!!!!

These folks are going to be in your neighborhood, top notch stuff. But you may just be wanting leather.

If you are looking for a more sportbike look (leather and armor) check out Joe Rocket. They sell large guy stuff up to 5x. I've had my Sonic perfed leather jacket for 10 years...

A Roadcrafter 2-piece. There is nothing more versatile.

That's what I wear. Never carry a rainsuit. Even in the summer time it can get cool in the mountains, and when it starts raining, you don't have to stop.

Does it get hot sitting behind the F6 fairing? That's been my issue with my textile Dainese, the wind doesn't hit the vents in the jacket.

Yes it does get hot sitting behind the F6B fairing but Roadcrafter vents are about 12" long in the arm pits so when you are moving its not too bad. The big difference in textiles is the material. Aerostich uses Gore-tex which is 100% breathable and expensive. You can find garments from others with Gore-tex but not many, Klim gear is one other and some high end Alpinestars I think. I start getting too hot in my standard Roadcrafter in the mid-eighties and resort to wetting my t-shirt or using LD comfort. My next purchase will be a lighter weight version of the Roadcrafter that they came out with last year.

If you want to find a +$300 leather jacket for $25 just stop into a couple of Goodwill stores around your area. I guarantee that you'll find something you will like in about two or three stops. I am not joking. I've probably got $4,000 in top of the line, name brand, leather that I've picked up at Goodwill for pennies on the dollar.

They are a great company with a great product...after several years my leather pants needed some work...they took them and restitched the crotch (that I ripped) they shortened them for me and no charge. Their leather is THICK and well made!!..great stuff.
