Why?


The Men's Vented Racing Jacket is our best selling motorcycle jacket, highly functional with simple no frills styling. It has two generous vents front and rear with a tough mesh shell to allow maximum airflow. The main zipper has an interior wind flap to eliminate air penetration. An inside snap and zippered pockets are set in the leather facing on the left and right side (respectively). Elbows and shoulders are reinforced with extra leather. This motorcycle jacket is cut long in the back with a padded kidney panel.

Two options are available for adjusting the sides - snaps or lacing. There are two zippered pockets on the front of the jacket and expansion joints behind the shoulders. This leather jacket has zippered sleeves and an insulated removable full sleeve liner with a hide-away fleece neck warmer. Soft, heavy naked leather with a dull luster shows off the natural grain and compliments the antique brass hardware.

This is one quality product! You only have to pick it up to feel the weight and know you've got a jacket that will last a lifetime.

It's great on and off the bike and I've had several guys approach me and ask where I got it. The removable lining is a great feature. I feel like a real biker in this jacket!

Vented Racing Jacket 2010-01-28

by Bobby from , Arizona

707 of 1414 people found this review helpful.

I've been looking to buy this jacket for quite some time now. I ordered a two-one for me and a black one for the wife.

I'm not going to go into a dissertation about how much I love this jacket. I LOVE THIS JACKET!!!

My wife is both impressed and very pleased with the cut of the woman's vented racer. The customer service is top notch and you can get a beefy AMERICAN made leather jacket that is very well made and less costly than any high end HD (made in China) jacket. I'm 49, and this jacket makes me look studly (at least the wife thinks so).

Fox Creek Leather gets 2100 thousand stars! Will I ever buy another brand of jacket after this experience? Nope!

Good luck to anyone who can find a better motorcycling jacket. 2010-07-12

After an unnecessary delay by Australia Post, my FC vented racing jacket arrived delivered to my door.

Let me just say how pleased I am with the jacket. Though it has been said before; the beautifully soft and thick leather, the functional and elegant design and the excellent manufacturing quality have surpassed my expectations. Should I ever get to wrestle a crocodile, which is highly unlikely, this would be my choice of protection.

I was somewhat tentative of ordering online an item that would add an additional 25% to the cost of having it freighted Down Under (it ain’t a light cow hide), not to mention in dollar terms that I lose another 15% on the exchange rate, and then there is the question of getting the correct size. Well, now that I have the jacket - it fits perfectly and all I can say is it was worth every cent and the sizing chart provided worked for me.

Good luck to anyone who can find a better motorcycling jacket.

High Quality, Superior Crafted and Fits Perfectly!! 2010-05-24

by Big-D from Lake Havasu City, AZ

699 of 1398 people found this review helpful.

I ordered a Vented Racing Jacket in a 50 Long. I am 6'4" and weight 260lbs with a 50" chest and a 38" waist. Let me also mention I ride a Yamaha FJR1300 Super-Sport bike.

Past problems with riding jackets were the arms were too tight to fit over my arms. It seemed as though most jackets I tried were designed for men with smaller diameter arms. So I was a little concerned that my Fox Creek jacket might fall into this same situation.

Immediately upon opening the box, that beautiful smell of leather filled the air. This baby was heavy and the stitching was immaculate. As I pulled the jacket on, it felt perfect in my arms, my chest and around my waist. The sleeve length was perfect as it went just up my hand about an inch or so, which is perfect if I wear a gauntlet style glove, or on warmer days I can wear a lighter sport type glove and get air up the sleeve. The venting allows plenty of air flow, although being I live in the absolute hottest city in the country, I'll have to see how this jacket handles the 117+ degree heat. At this point, if riding locally, I will probably wear my all-over vented air flow jacket. I will soon find out with summer just around the corner.

My overall summary of the Fox Creek Vented Racing jacket is; the quality is far superior than any (including high end) jackets out there. Fox Creek makes a superior American made garment that no other can complete with. Its comfortable, looks totally sharp, constructed of the finest leather ever and provides great protection in case of a fall. This leather will save your hide. Don't get me wrong, this is an expensive jacket. But jackets such as Alpine Stars or Dainese can easily cost much more and not feel anywhere near as nice as this Fox Creek. I say this because I tried all the brands before deciding on a Fox Creek. There just wasn't anything out there as nice as my new Vented Racing Jacket. I know from experience, if it doesn't fit right or feel right, it won't do you any good hanging in some closet.

I am completely satisfied with my Fox Creek Vented Racing Jacket. What can I say, the fit and finish are impeccable. The quality and craftsmanship is unsurpassed. And I also should mention with all the times I called Fox Creek to ask questions, I was always greeted in a friendly and personable manner. My jacket was thoroughly packed correctly and arrived five days after ordering it. This jacket will last a very long time. It is the Cadillac of all motorcycle jackets.

Let me add one more feature; because I ride kind of a sport bike with suitcases, I did not want the typical V-Twin biker style jacket. This jacket will fit in regardless of your riding style or motorcycle brand or model.

Super sharp!! If I were to give this jacket a star rating, it would be 5 stars all the way!

Now I have my eyes set on a pair of leather over-pants as soon as I can.

Excellent Jacket 2010-11-18

by Chris from Coal City, IL

698 of 1396 people found this review helpful.

I purchased the vented racing jacket earlier in the year. Best Motorcycle jacket I have ever owned, and the smell of that fine leather is amazing. It is very hard to find an American Made Leather Motorcycle Jacket. Jacket is warm, wind proof and very comfortable. Look forward to many years of service out of this jacket.

Thanks Fox

The best jacket ever! 2005-05-17

by Ken Demuysere from Kenosha, WI

689 of 1375 people found this review helpful.

I have been riding for over 25 years and have owned over a dozen jackets. This jacket is by far the best jacket I've ever owned. The quality of the leather and workmanship is unmatched by anyone else.

I ride at least nine months out of the year and in Wisconsin that can get very cold. This jacket is warm enough to keep you toasty even when its only 25deg (even without a windshield).

The fit is perfect. I'm 6ft2in and have found very few places that make a jacket that fits. The sizing chart makes sizing your jacket a no brainer. You can count on your jacket fitting perfectly!

In closing let me say again I've never owned a better jacket. I'm ordering a pair of gloves next and I'm sure they will be as good as all their other products. Ill never shop for leather anywhere else again.

Great Jacket! 2010-01-01

I bought one of the old style Vented Racing Jackets on sale about two years ago as they were transitioning to the current style. It was, and still is, a great jacket that I've worn year around in Colorado. With a fleece liner underneath, the heavy leather is warm in the 30-40 degree days of fall, early winter, and early spring, but the vents are very effective in keeping cool in the 90s of summertime (although vents in the insides of the sleeves would be a great modification). A 42 Long fit my tall, lanky bod perfectly and the construction throughout is top quality. I'm confident that I'll wear this jacket for many years and miles to come.

I am not normally the type of person to other to comment but I couldn't be more pleased. The vented racing jacket I got is great quality materials, heavy duty construction and best of all it fits. Nothing in the stores ever fits, if I got it big enough for my shoulders it was oversize in the waist and I could never find tall sizes so my arms would stick out.

I purchased a 48 long and the sleeves still cover my wrists in a riding position no problem. The laced sides allow you to adjust upwards of 2 inches per side so it gives me a nice tapered fit to the waist. Great job to Lisa in sales for help with the sizing and congratulations on a great product at a fair price. I could care less about fancy packaging and slick store fronts, just keep giving us great American made products and I will do my part to spread the word.

Thanks again,
Rod in Texas

This jacket is incredible! I'm exceptionally difficult to fit, but Paul and his staff were very helpful in recommending the right sized jacket, given my measurements.

I received the Jacket in under a week and when I opened the box and pulled out the jacket I was "BLOWN AWAY". It was beautifully crafted, and the leather was unbelievably soft. The website pictures just don't do this jacket justice. When I tried it on it was though it was made exactly for me; The fit was perfect!

The true test though was the ride; I took it out for a spin last night and the vents did there job. The air flow was strong and I remained cool despite the 80 degree temperature (I live in Hawaii).

All in all, this has been a wonderful experience, and I can't recommend Fox Creek Leather enough. Next up for me is the "Braided Vest".

Thanks Paul!

Brad Holmes
