Leather Motorcycle Jacket

This question is kind of broad. What do you think about leather motorcycle jackets? Are they just good protection, or do you also express yourself with the jacket you wear? Are you a leather jacket wearer, and if so: do you wear custom leather? Off the rack leather jackets? Off the rack, with personalized patches? A leather riding vest? Just looking for thoughts and opinions..

Hmmm, as for me? I love leather jackets are hip and cool. You can choose any designs and colors you want or even add some patches to define your personality. I really do wear leather jackets that are custom made, sometimes I do make my own design and make sure that they look good on me of course. lol

I've always been a fan of the leather race jackets with stuff like Suzuki patches and colors and stuff all over them however, it gets a bit hot in TX for leather so I usually go with my Mess Joe Rocket. I mainly wear it for protection but I do look for a style I like also. Color is important, I'm kinda picky about matching my gear and bike color...

I bought custom leathers for the track which I LOVE from Syed. I mainly bought custom because it's extremely hard to find good fitting gear for women. unless you are a very small framed girl with no chest most jackets just don't fit well and the pants are made for someone with no hips.

Overall, protection is the main purpose with style/color being the 2nd most important to me.

I would eventually like to get some custom leathers too. I will keep Syed in mind. Cyclelover, when you do your own designs, are you actually doing the work as well, or turning your designs over to a shop who makes the jackets for you?
