I wanted to give a little info here regaurding leather riding jackets, being I collect vintage motorcycle jackets since the early 80s , Im sure the newer materials are very good for cold weather riding but if you are a Leather Man , I have about 60 + jackets in my collection and for cold weather riding the leather Jacket I ride in and find to be the Best for cold weather, is made by Taylors leathwear,Taylor makes most if not all leather Jackets for most major police departmments in the USA and also for the US Airforce, since the 1940s , over the years they have made some changes in liner material and adding reflecive material ,but the style and quality has not changed , there Jacket line up (styles) are named by the individual police dept. they supply , I have all models and early ones from the late 40 rite to the 1990s, my favorite is the Newark style , Named for the Newark NJ motorcyle unit they ride 24/7 365 all are hand sewn and quality is first rate, each Jacket sewing is done by one person and then the jacket signed by that person , I have all the best Jackets early HD, Schott, Indian ,Buco and chicago police leather. and find them all to excellent qulaity,but the Taylor overshines them all for cold weather riding , To buy one new will set you back at least 500. but you can find them on ebay for under 150 ,Ive gotten some for under a 100. So if you are in the market for a cold weather riding Jaket and dont want to spend a lot of bucks find a used Taylor ,U cant wear them out ,they almost always clean up as new with some good leather products also the liners zip out so you can ride with these jackets in fair weather. the older ones pre 80s have a fur type liner the new styles have a nylon type liner and reflective tape that flips out on the back for nite riding and over the front top pockets . the early one have no reflective tape.these jackets are heavy and as soon as you pick one up you will know you have a quality jacket in your hand.
