    Motorcyclists question: Horsehide boots?

    I've used a lot of boots and have found that a moc toe boot with a comp sole like a Red Wing 875 or a Thorogood are my favorites. I've used one pair of my Whites with a comp sole but prefer a boot without a heel. As mentioned, the shifter will mark up any boot. And yes, keep the shiny side of...

    Leather with Wool Liner

    I hear you about the heat. I don't ride in the summer, and by summer I mean the middle of May through September. If I'm jonesing for a scoot I'll go for a short one at 5 am. The mornings are quite nice in the desert. In general, a leather jacket is a once in a while thing for me here. More often...

    Leather with Wool Liner

    That one was probably worn twice. Bought in New York before I moved to Tucson. It's been a closet queen for somewhere around 20 years. The quality on it is not bad. I'm not a fan of "new made to look old" in almost anything however.

    Leather with Wool Liner

    I've seen a couple of steerhide jackets that were like armor. I have a goatskin that's really quite supple; and it is supposed to be very durable. Mine doesn't have much wear on it. I'm looking for a new jacket for the bike that will take on a nice patina. Goatskin, at least mine, doesn't seem...

    Leather with Wool Liner

    Case closed! Sounds like it's warmer and less durable. I live in Tucson; so it's not for me. I'm also thinking a horsehide is too heavy as well.

    Leather with Wool Liner

    If it's a higher end jacket ($1400), if not for warmth why use wool; is it more durable?

    Leather with Wool Liner

    That's what Schott is saying. That it's a very thin fabric.

    Leather with Wool Liner

    I was just wondering how often it is used in higher end leather jackets. By not insulated I mean it is not quilted in any way. I think (and this is where I need some help) that wool doesn't necessarily have to be hot when thin. it wicks heat away. There are summer wool dress suits, and wool is...

    Leather with Wool Liner

    I was looking at a Schott horseside jacket with a wool liner. Not insulated in any way, just wool fabric. Any opinions on a wool liner; particularly motorcycling in warmer weather?

    Size 40 True to Size Measurments

    if I decide to keep this jacket and use it, I might use it on the motorcycle in moderate weather. Large in the shoulders for reach is a good thing in a bike jacket. Many have gusseted back shoulders for that reason. I hadn't looked at it in many years and when I gave it a fresh look I was...
