The leather that these jackets are made of is exceptional.
I had been looking for a motorcycle jacket to replace one that had been stolen some time back. After searching the local area I had discovered Fox Creek Leather while online.
I had been looking primarily for a motorcycle jacket, but once I had seen the Vented Bomber Jacket by Fox Creek, I had decided to buy it.
This jacket, style wise, seemed like it would be suitable for cycle use as well as general casual wear. A couple days after placing my order the jacket arrived.
As it turned out, I had ordered a size too small so i called Customer Service and requested a return authorization. The very helpful staff had agreed to send me a bigger size even before I returned the original, thus affording me the opportunity to compare the two sizes.
This level of customer service support impressed me.
Upon receipt of the first jacket, I was impressed by the weight, luster and softness of the leather. The jacket was designed with a myriad of air vents and pockets and even a removable liner and neck warmer. The zippers,snaps,mesh liner and even the pocket liners were of top notch quality.
The Bomber jacket has this feature whereby the outer zipper remains unzipped but a second zipper could be zipped thus exposing a perforated liner to allow for even more airflow and an additional inch or two for those of us requiring some.
As stated earlier I had been shopping for quality leather for some time but just got tired of being asked to pay extra for the middleman and seeing labels stating jacket made in either China,Korea or Pakistan.
Let me say in conclusion, that I doubt any other cycle jacket has the combination of top notch leather/hardware, the well thought out design and features, the workmanship, the helpful courteous staff, the Made in U.S.A. name tag and all at a very competitive price, making this jacket in my opinion "Second to None". Although this was my first Fox Creek Leather purchase, it will not be my last. The product,the service and the price are just that good.
Now all I need is a supply of their business cards.

I am extremely pleased with the quality and fit of this bomber jacket. I had it delivered to a friend in Washington DC when over on a work trip and then actually tried it out for the first time on a friend's SV650 Suzuki in Dallas. Now back in Australia in our winter, I have also enjoyed using it with the liner. I got the size very slightly wrong in the chest (a little tight) but on the bike it fits well.
I cannot really adequately describe the high quality of the leather. It's creamy in texture, so supple and smooth. The inner perforated zip closure worked really well in the Dallas heat. The bomber style means I can happily wear it for other occasions. I recommend Fox Creek Leathers as a quality supplier.

I have wanted a coat of this quality for most of my 63 years. Color me a freak but I can spot a truly great leather coat from a "wanna-be" leather coat from across the room!
After hearing of Fox Creek's reputation on some biker forums I wasn't afraid to send them a sizable chunk of money for my coat. When it came in I laid it out on the dining room table for a nearly microscopic inspection. I could find no fault with it. Every stitch, zipper and pocket were just perfect. I have the middle age spread thing going for me and the lady who sized me over the phone hit my size perfect the first time out.
Thanks Fox Creek for a tremendous product and service. Needless to say, I'll be keeping my coat. In fact I may even get some off-season use out of it!

If you are looking for quality leather and craftsmanship then look no further. You could if you want but you won't find better I assure you. I've bought several leather jackets, chaps and pants over the years and nobody compares to what you'll find at Fox Creek Leather. I am very happy with my purchase, the fit,the feel and the look. Their leather may cost more than what you'll find in bike shops,ect. but you get what you pay for and that definitely rings true with these great people. Thank you Fox Creek!!! I truly am impressed.

I was a little doubtful about buying a jacket like this without being able to look it over first but this jacket and Fox Creek Leather exceeded my exceptions in every way.
The construction and material used is just outstanding. The purchase was easy the shipping fast and the results perfect. I've looked for along time for a good quality jacket that offers protection, comfort and good looks and that wouldn't break the bank and this is it.
Not only does it look good it works, in the short time I've had it on cool mornings it's been great. Warm with no unwanted air gaps and when I hit rain it just rolled off. The fit was good right out of the box snug where it needs to be but not restricting. It's a heavier jacket than I expected but very comfortable and the weight isn't noticeable. The vents are placed where you can get some good air flow on warmer days and easy to open and close.
I couldn't be happier and would highly recommend Fox Creek Leather and will be shopping there again.

I recently sold my older HD leather jacket as it seems I have somewhat outgrown it over the last several years.
I began the extensive search for a suitable replacement. The old jacket had a removable liner and was vented so I wanted to ensure the new jacket had those features at the least.
I visited all the local shops and could not find a single jacket with the features I desired. They were either short on venting or had only a vest liner rather than full sleeve. I also found the quality of leather was all over the spectrum with stiff and rigid being the norm. If the leather was soft enough for me and the jacket had most of the features then it was priced way too high.
I then started a search on the web to see what was out there. Again it was hard to find one single jacket with all the features I desired with the quality I demanded. I kept being drawn back to the Fox Creek site and the variety of styles they offered.
These jackets all had the features I was looking for and then some. The reviews were all positive and being USA made was a definite plus. The hardest part was choosing the style. I finally had my wife pick the style she preferred which was the bomber. I ordered the jacket on a Friday and it was delivered on the following Monday. Now that is service.
The jacket is everything I could ask for and more. Quality leather and the craftsmanship is better than expected. Using the sizing guide gets you a jacket that fits as if it was tailored just for you. You give your exact measurements and the jacket will fit without having to play the "order one/two sizes up" as required for foreign made products.
The jacket is protective and provides unrestricted movement on the bike. To say it is comfortable would be an understatement.
I think it is safe to say that Fox Creek offers the best jacket for the money without exception. I also can't say enough about the convenience of having a built in neck warmer for when the air is just a bit too cool.
Great service. Great products. Great prices. You really cannot do better anywhere else.

Dear Fox Creek:
I bought my Fox Creek Bomber jacket last year and it's simply the best motorcycle jacket I've ever owned. I really appreciate your superb craftsmanship because, as a professional motorcycle tour guide, I put my jacket through some serious wear and tear.
I put the jacket on as soon as it was delivered and the fit was perfect. It's everything I was hoping it would be and more. I could not be more satisfied. As you know, a motorcyclist's jacket is much more than just apparel... it's of prime importance when it comes to protection and comfort.
I just wanted to let you know that I've enjoyed my Fox Creek jacket tremendously over the past year and look forward to many, many more years of enjoyment in the future. The quality is beyond compare, the functionality is excellent, and it looks great too. Couldn't ask for anything more.

Just a quick note to tell you that I’m absolutely delighted with the Vented Leather Bomber. The fit, style, design, material and build quality are all outstanding.
I’ve been biking for forty years and have experienced a fair selection of riding kit (including a $2,000 BMW suit), but this jacket is in a different league altogether. It’s very apparent that it has been designed by a biker, for a biker.
Although I hope not to find out anytime soon, the jacket clearly offers excellent crash protection due to the thickness of the leather and the quality of the zips and stitching.

I've tried on various leather jackets in motorcycle stores over the years and I've never found one that clicked.
I'm tall at 6'5" and they were always short in the body and arms or huge across the shoulders and gut. Some of them looked OK but you would only wear them 10 days a year in sunny Sydney because they had no venting.
The ones that would take armor might be OK on the track but I would be ashamed to walk through the front door at work; OK for a 5'2" track racer with a little man syndrome maybe but a little too much bling for my taste.
I'm planning a trip across the Himalayas and decided I really needed a good leather jacket. A friend in the U.S recommended Fox Creek Leather. He has the vented Bomber jacket; he wears it flying (but not bombing).
With some misgivings, I perused the fitting system, ordered a 46" (long) Bomber jacket over the internet and waited for it to ship 12,000 miles.
What a blast. The jacket fits beautifully, including full length sleeves and a body that match my anatomy. This jacket is seriously engineered. The sleeve expansion system means it looks good when you are standing up-right but when you sit on the bike and reach for the bars it flexes with you. The multiple vents really work, with the front unzipped I can wear it around on pretty hot days without sweating bricks. The build quality is just great, I suspect it will become an heirloom. My son has certainly suggested that I hand it down pretty much immediately.
I haven't tried it with armor yet but the system looks like it has been thought through and will work well.
This is absolutely the best biking jacket I have ever seen let alone owned. The only down side is I may have to invest in new hardware to do it justice... could be the most expensive jacket I ever bought......

I’ve been searching for a high-quality Motorcycle leather jacket. However; I found it at the homepage of Fox Creek Leathers. I am astonished about this wonderful, versatile and different garments, the nice service and the high-quality products made by the people of FCL.
At once the Vented Bomber Jacket attracted attention to me, because it is my style. When reading the product description, there increases the wish to buy this jacket.
So I have had several E-Mail contacts with Scarlett to get some information and help. One of the superior customer service representatives I’ve ever seen! Wonderful! Extraordinary! A class of it’s own!
At first the high “extra costs” (shipping to Germany, German customs) kept me away from doing the purchase. But now I have ordered one and got it.
The Jacket is marvelous, great features, soft grip and supple leather. The best jacket, I’ve ever worn. Well done work. I don’t want to put it off. Even at home I wear this jacket.
This jacket is such a wonderful product made by FCL. I am very happy with it. I can highly recommend Fox Creek. Respect! Thanks to the people of Fox Creek.
I am looking forward to the next purchase at Fox Creek Leather, perhaps a pair of Gloves or another jacket :)
Thanks FCL

My Vented Bomber Jacket arrived one day before I left for Florence, Italy. I've owned quite a few leather riding jackets, but none compares with the FCL, for functionality, workmanship or price/value. And it looks and feels great!
The jacket's design is well thought out and executed, by people who understand and appreciate the user environment. The liner helped keep me warm in low 50-degree temperatures, and the inside protected pockets kept my passport, wallet and other valuables safe.
I had previously purchased two leather vests – Jean Biker and Classic – the latter as a gift. The holster pocket works very well, without a telltale bulge. Whereas all my other jackets are made overseas, the FCL is manufactured in the U.S., with a lifetime warranty. If anyone thinks that domestic manufacturing cannot be competitive, take a look at FCL.
BTW, a lot of my fellow Marines ride, and it would be nice for FCL to offer a custom vest using the USMC snaps that you currently offer on your vest extender. Finally, your customer care is the best. Scarlett even found a birthday card to include with my gift. Keep up the good work, FCL team!

I bought my Vented Bomber jacket 4-25-2011. I am writing this review after road testing it all riding season.
It is a heavy jacket with very high quality zippers. I measured following the directions and the fit is just the way I like it. Riding in the spring I had the vents closed and liner in and stayed warm in 45 degrees riding for 2 hours. Summer heat found all the vents open and liner removed. I could feel the air moving through the jacket which kept me cooler. After labor day the temps started to drop so I would start the day with the vents closed and open them as the temps rose. November found the liner in and all vents zipped shut, and I was warm and protected.
This is a great jacket. I would highly recommend this. I also wear the Fox Creek Leather chaps and gauntlet gloves when needed. Thanks Fox Creek Leather for a great product. I plan on visiting your store someday!

I had a hard time finding a good jacket where I live .I got lucky and found Fox creek leather. It is the best jacket I have ever owned !!!

I truly love my new Fox Creek Bomber Jacket!
The workmanship is second to none in my opinion and, as many have said, there’s nothing like opening the box upon arrival and smelling that “leather” aroma and feeling the weight of the jacket.
I special ordered the jacket with shorter sleeves and it came out perfectly. I was already familiar with the quality as I had 3 different jackets sent and returned before I decided.
Fox Creek’s customer service is wonderful as I changed my mind a few times before finally deciding what and when to buy. Ashley, Rachel and everyone at Fox Creek was very kind and patient.
I decided on the Bomber Jacket because, in my opinion, it’s the most versatile of all the styles as it looks great on and off my motorcycle. I’m also impressed by the fact that the jacket already feels broken in, not stiff at all, especially considering the thickness of the leather.
I was careful and cautious in my decision because I was convinced this would be the ultimate leather jacket and that I would wear it and enjoy it for a lifetime. I’m already considering who to leave it to in my will as I think it will outlast me!

Last week I received the Vented Bomber Jacket straight from the USA. The parcel spent more time in the local customs office for me to pick it up, than it did to be dispatched to me from Fox Creek to Helsinki, Finland!
I have purchased many items from web stores in the past. Some of which have been a surprise, pleasant and unpleasant. All in terms of the product material, finishing, size and overall value for money. I can say that the Fox Creek Leather Vented Bomber is all it lived up to and more. The leather is of superior quality than a high quality and expensive 'fashion' leather jacket. Many friends have also commented that they were surprised it was a motorcycle jacket and intended for the road. All due to the fact of its cut, leather quality and design.
If you are looking for a jacket that ticks the GOOD LOOKING DESIGN & SAFETY ASPECT, plus the MADE IN USA stamp. I cannot recommend this jacket more to you. Only problem is, its -12 degrees outside and the roads are full of snow. Two or three months to go before me and the jacket hit the road!

I only recently purchased the Classic II jacket-love it, BTW. Of course, considering the quality of that jacket, I couldn't stop there, so I just pulled the trigger on the Bomber jacket, as well. I don't know why I was so surprised when I tried it on, but I was. It fit absolutely perfectly with the same tough, but comfortable, feel as the Classic II. It's already in the 80's here in Phoenix, but I just had to ride with this jacket. It's heavy and I was prepared to sweat - a lot. Didn't happen. The vents on this one are outstanding! My only problem now is deciding which jacket I'll try next.

I had been looking for a quality leather jacket since I got back into riding in 2003. The local leather shops and bike shops were either selling lightweight dress jackets or logo and zipper-infested biker jackets. That's not me. I wanted a sturdy, functional, leather jacket - made of real leather - not patchwork scraps or some foreign "almost leather" material....
I "found" Fox Creek Leather's site after the suggestions of a few members of a bike forum that I belong to.
The Vented Bomber Motorcycle Jacket was just what I had been looking for. I placed my order and received it in just a few days. I was impressed by the quality and features of the jacket; unfortunately, the size was a bit small. I sent an email to the FCL folks and sent the jacket back. They responded to my email immediately, followed up with a phone call, and sent out a larger size jacket before the original was returned to them. That's called customer service. The new jacket arrived and the fit was perfect.
I got a chance to ride with it the other day, and this is a quality jacket. As a friend at work said, this is what they call a "second skin".
I really like this jacket and the people at Fox Creek Leather know what customer service means.
Did I mention this is a quality jacket?
