    Ever think some jackets are overhyped

    Having owned several LW in 4oz, I hear you. Being a rider we tend to go with the heaviest leather protection. I have ridden in my Kensington several times but always thought if I went down the jacket would be ruined. I have been down in a buffalo Thedi cafe racer, a simple and easy low slide...

    Buying jackets on Japanese auction sites

    You do not get to read their reply. With the few similar issues I had with PayPal I was successful half the time. The other half went to the villain.
