It has now been three riding seasons with my Men’s Classic 1 jacket, and two riding seasons for my daughter and her Women’s Fitted Classic. Both jackets came soft to the touch, but now, they are like the proverbial leather butter, and seem to get softer with every ride. Truly remarkable jackets that are comfortable on the hottest summer days with the internal mesh ventilation system, and on the cold days with wind-breaking power and thermal liner. We will each never wear anything but a Fox Creek Leather jacket, and gloves. . "James D"
