| | Man you are all spoiled with yer many jackets! When I was growing up I had to share 1 jacket with my 37 brothers. We walked single file (Guy with the Jacket last in line so we could block the wind for him) to school, 6 feet of snow up hill both ways in minus 86 degree temps. I had no shoes. My only pet was a rock. However when Christmas rolled around we each got a brand new shiney penny wich we had to turn over to Uncle Sam to pay for the folks that were in "need" illegally in the country. |

| | Just got off of the Vanson web site I think it is going to be a long time before I get new leather. Oh well it took 4 years to break in the one I have. |

| | I own 5 leather jackets but only two are used for riding. One is an off-brand buffalo leather jacket that I don't wear very often because it fits really tightly on me and the other is a Harley Owner's Group jacket that fits a little more loosely but is also very heavy. |

| | I own 3 leather jackets but only 1 is for riding. It's a mid-weight and already thinking about up grading to a light summer and heavier winter wear.

| | Just One I bought the Basic Skins HD leather jacket back in 2001, and it is still in great shape. I recently thought of buying a new Vanson leather jacket, the Highwayman model, but couldn't bring myself to pay that much for another jacket when the one I have suits me so well. |

| | Leather jackets? I've owned 25 to 30 over the years. Most wouldn't fit now.
I have a Harley 'Nevada' I use most of the time and a Harley 100th anniversary jacket for the parades. |

| | Have been through a few over the years, now only have a H-D stock leather jacket bought new last year. It's light, plenty warm for Coastal Texas, well made, and really comfortable. Plus I got a big discount on it and chaps because a friend knows the lady who runs the local H-D dealer's Motorclothes dept. Good friends are great to have. |  | | |
