I've put over 40,000 miles on my Fieldsheer 2 piece perforated leather jacket and pants and they have been top notch. Although heavy and maybe not the best material for the rain I feel the safest. I Treat them with Lexol once a year and they still look great. I wear an under layer in the winter that blocks the wind and keeps me warm and I wear a rain suit over them if I get caught in the rain. Nothing beats leather if you were to have a crash.

Langlitz Leathers of Portland Oregon. They've been around for years. Old school tradition. I don't know if they're around anymore but I had a jacket custom made there about 25 years ago. There was a 6 month wait and they're not inexpensive. Oh, and I had pants and a vest made there as well.

I tried the Ignition out for a couple weeks. Loved the jacket overall, but could not get past how rough the cuffs are. The material around the wrists at the very end of the sleeve is equivalent to sandpaper. It rubbed my wrists raw, and I had to return an otherwise awesome jacket simply because they couldn’t wrap some sort of soft material around the cuffs. Bought an Alpinestars GP Plus R v2 Airflow and I’ve been super happy with it.

Have a 9 y.o. Scorpion Exo, perferated (sp?) jacket that has been lovingly cared for all if its life. . . because I appreciate all that leather is/can be and care for it accordingly. With my regular cleaning/conditioning, repairs/maint. done by a proper leathercraft professional, & occasional upgrades to the armor, this jacket has 1) stayed white, 2) retained ALL of its esthetic accouterments, 3) served me well as a three-season garment (Spr/Sum/Fall) since I bought it. It fits me perfectly & has done so through multiple changes in weight, with minor alterations by the afore mentioned leathercraft pro. Take care of your leather & it will take care of you.

While we are talking about leather jackets i gotta mention Sweep. A finnish brand. I think its very good for northern dudes that has to experience cold weather. Inside the jacket there is waterproof liner and after that thermal liner. 2 waterproof pockets and 2 regular, inside the jacket there is phone pocket and mp3 pocket+a hole to feed headphone wire through if someone still uses wire. Without the inside bits this is still very warm, maybe too warm for southern brothers.
