SOA Motorcycle Vest for Men, Premium Buffalo Leather, Back Armor, Inside Pockets, Biker Riding Club Vests, All Season

This is a good vest, and excellent for the price.That being said, the leather is stiff, it would do you good to sleep in it for a couple of weeks to let it conform to your body. Put your patches on it, first, or you'll be attaching them to a wrinkled jacket.This is "genuine leather", which is actually the lowest quality cut of leather before it becomes patchwork. But it's still the highest quality vest you will find before getting into any named animal hides.I am 245 lbs at 5'11", I ordered the 3XL on the assumption it would run small. Even with a hoodie, it's a little large, but if you plan on hiding a gun or a flask in the concealed carry pockets, you might appreciate the extra room. If I were to order it again, I'd go with the 2XL because it's still a little baggy around the waist and shoulder blades. This size is perfect for summer in the South, I'll get plenty of wind.It's black leather, the image looks a little burgundy on my phone. The red thread stitching definitely pops, good for Bandidos or any other MC that uses red in their rockers.I don't expect this to stay pristine through the summer. It's gonna scuff the first time I scrape against a door or twist my ankle on a patch of gravel. But I would recommend this to anyone for their first cut.

I went with the crocodile black 2X, it fits perfectly and the design love it. For conceal carry it works pretty damn well from full size (barely see it) to compact (doesn’t show). Like all vest u find the one for u the only con I have w this is the collar super close to my neck it’s not super snug it’s just the feeling of something there and yea to each there own.

This is a very high quality vest and leather for the money. It appears and feels to be very sturdy with good seems and a solid zipper with buttons. I must admit that I am a bit surprised of the quality and value considering there are other vests with much higher price tags.Some have commented on sizing And here is my opinion. I am a little over six foot and a hundred and ninety pounds. I ordered a large and felt that it was way too big. I purchased a medium and then submitted for a refund on the large. everything went just fine and it was free to do, possibly because I am a Prime member. either way, when the medium arrived it was a bit snug in the chest and the waist. The length was just fine. I looked back at the sizing chart and you will notice that in between the medium range and the large range there are a couple of inches that don't fall into either size. I Must Fall Right in that bucket because the large was too big and the medium was just barely too small. In fact, it wasn't so small that I wanted to return it because honestly the quality for the money is really good, so instead I used my kitchen faucet with warm water and dampened everything from the chest down on the outside only and then I stuffed at with a sleeping bag for one day. It fits perfectly now. Yes, it took a little bit of work but again for the value it was worth it.The only drawback that I cannot change is that the armholes, even on the medium, seem to be bigger than they need to be, but not obnoxiously so.The leather is thick, not thin and flimsy.All in all, I recommend this vest.

While this looks good and is constructed well, it is stiff. Sits on you like cardboard. I took a blow dryer to it to soften it, then worked leather conditioner (Loop West) into it. It helped a lot but still stiff, hopefully it will break in quickly.The fit is perfect and it has take up straps on the waist to tighten if you'd like.It has a pad to protect your back.The zipper works nicely and it can be worn with just buttons and no zipper for more airflow.Over all if it was softer, I'd give it 5 stars.

Live in Indiana. Perfect for Spring but also fitsunder Harley jacket when colder. Lots of room for different size weapons. Well made. Husband loved it!

It was a decent purchase for the price. The zippers tended to stick and ultimately broke entirely after about 3 months. I won’t purchase again, but I recommend anyone buying to be very soft on the zippers.

Very comfortable and fits well

I read all the reviews, good and bad, but I hoped for the best. It arrived today. I was originally very happy with it and thought it couldn’t be too bad. Everything felt very solid and well-made. I thought the underarms were too big, but that was a small thing. I thought it looked good. Felt good. I just came back from my first ride after only having a two hours and I go to one button for the first time and the top snap ripped off.So beware it feels good. Seems good for a cheap vest but those other reviewers who warned about the snaps coming off they weren’t making it up.
