Default Xelement leathers

I recently ordered some gear from Xelement, I was expecting poor quality leather for the price i paid for it, and I'm amazed at the quality you get for the price they ask for the gear. Pants with 1 piece fronts (no seam over the knee on the front of the leg)for 75.00, side laced jacket for 89.00. I'm very pleased with the quality, looks just as good as a jacket i saw in Wilson's leather for well over twice the price. Only thing is to order it one size bigger than you actually wear (ex. 38 size pants need a 40, xl jacket needs a xxl) I hope this helps someone out, I know how leather on a budget works, several guys i know ride without because of costs... but i've recently turned em on to the leathers I've been wearing and they are preparing an order as we speak.

Thanks for the testimonial. Their site is a little buggy. Don't expect to be able to navigate to all of the product areas.

It is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the LORD.

Thanks for the mention.

How can someone ride without a leather jacket just because of cost? Don't they know what a good road rash will cost if they slide without protection?

Ya know Jay Dee, A good rash would sure suck. I dont wear a leather jacket or a jacket of anykind when it is hot. Is it a risk? I am sure it is. Life is full of them and I choose which ones I will take.

I know some elderly folks that dont take their Meds because of the price. They cant afford them. Soooo??
