    Johnson Leather Jacket

    About 1" longer body would have been OK. I spec'd this jacket for riding in mind.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    This steerhide jacket arrived today. I have never had a steerhide jacket before. The jacket was built to my specs based on my other jackets and the elbow area has very little room making it very hard to bend my arms past 90º. Will the leather stretch out eventually? I love the color.

    Aero Hooch Hauler - Brown CXL FQHH - 2 month review

    Awesome fit and great looking jacket! As I was reading the dimensions of the jacket, I was extremely surprised because the jacket would just fit me perfect as is! LOL.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    The shrinkage is noticed in the sleeves. But the wrinkles contributed to it as well. I do not mind the current shorter sleeve lengths as this is a three season jacket with a cotton lining.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Here are the comparison photos of my Masaye jacket when new vs now. It has been 1.5 years and I have maybe 5000 bike miles thru rain and shine. The upper arms are showing slight brown hue and the arms have developed deep creases that I thought I would never see.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I have ridden thru some rain with the Masaye several times over the months and it is still good! It is my favorite riding jacket currently. It is not developing the deep creases like Vicenza but it is a lot more pliable. And it has developed a little sheen and looks broken in.

    Aero Board racer zipper splits open

    My LL Cyclone arrived a while ago and it is a tight fit model and it fits great. And the Masaye jacket is all I wear when I ride nowadays. It is so easy to wear.

    Aero Board racer zipper splits open

    Masaye jacket was fitted more snug than my Aero BR and because I have been layering due to cold weather, I have not been wearing Masaye much. Also, the sleeves are not attached for riding position so when I ride, a crease forms across the upper back. I will wear it more when it gets to 70's.

    Aero Board racer zipper splits open

    I used pliers to pinch the puller little bit and the zipper has not come open since. Thank you. I love this Vicenza leather jacket. Although I had to get it fitted by Johnson leathers in SF after purchase, the Vicenza leather jacket continues to be impressive. I have ridden my bike in light...

    Aero Board racer zipper splits open

    Is this a common problem? My jacket is Less than 1 year old but I have been wearing it frequently. And it recently started having a zipper problem where the zipper teeth come apart below the zipper pull all the way down to the zipper stop while I am riding the bike. And it becomes a cape with...

    Help on new board racer

    Johnson leathers in San Francisco can trim the waist for you. They trimmed the body and biceps on my Vicenza Board racer for me.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I received my first Johnson leathers jacket today. It fits like a glove. I wanted a snug fitting cafe racer and now i have one! Customer service and workmanship on the jacket is second to none. Compared to Aero BR's Vicenza, Masaye is more pliable from new. But I do prefer the stiffness and dry...

    This is a Aero Board Racer in blackened brown in size 36. The arms and body have been slimmed as much as possible. I think it looks OK when I wear another layer underneath. However, my dream jacket is a fitted jacket with just a T-shirt underneath. I want to get another leather jacket but no...
