I purchased this size 40 leather riding jacket a couple of seasons ago from Union Garage, but only wore it a few times before I sold my bike. Condition is practically new with no damage or flaws. I'd be glad to answer any questions you may have.

It's manufactured by Vanson Leathers in Falls River, Massachusetts of "comp weight" cowhide, and sold by Union Garage in NYC. Original price was $950 and it still sells for this price from Union Garage.

Here's more info from the Union Garage website:

"We opted for armor-in, sculpting the elbows ever so slightly so that there’s room for the armor without totally killing the jacket’s credibility as an everyday leather jacket.

It comes with a five-piece CE Level 1 armor kit made by D3O. The interior is fitted with a smooth satin-finish interior with a vertical zipper hidden behind the center pleat to access the armor. The back protector fits into a sewn-in zippered pocket, and the elbow and shoulder armor are held place by a patented orbital carrier system that makes the armor easy to adjust in place, or remove altogether.

Dual inside deep-reach pockets keep even super-sized smart phones tucked away and secured with a sturdy snap closure. The single exterior chest pocket is located on the wearer’s right, accessible without taking a hand off the throttle. Two zip-down hand-warmer pockets round out the storage."
