I hear yeah...yeah, me too. I'm not the guy who loves jamming on the freeway, amidst tractor-trailers, and bad drivers. I like an open road, trees, and frsh air, with my bike purring along-as much as straight shotguns can purr...well, you get the idea.
yum cha... nah never heard of it or them?
MC club?

sounds like they predate Schott leather jackets.
I have to check out their prices-I am in the market for a new leather jacket.
I also want to buy a Lil Joe's vest-but they are very expensive.

Not really. Usually under 600 CAD so about 525 usd for their decent ones.
They have some high end ones too, but so does HD fashion. lol
Buy a HD jacket at their shop and you will pay 3x what it is actually worth.
kinda like buying a Cadillac, you really are paying for the name and the badge and aren't getting a significantly better car.
joe rocket jackets are as good as or better than anything HD produces for biker clothing.
Kung Fu is good for you.
Anything HD is pricey.
you know what it stands for right?

You're my hero...
Except I don't go for Gibsons. They don't fit my hand right. I've always played one offs... Kramers, BC Rich, Charvel/Jackson, Ibanez, ESP, etc... Better neck selections for me.
Sig is butter in the hand. Doesn't matter the model, the geometry is always on. Kimber is too rigid for my tastes, but the feel is spot on. I prefer my rattlin milspec Colt 1991A1. Little loose out of the box & nail driving at 10 yards. Don't like the Baretta or Glock. Front sight geometry isn't right for me.

Interesting observation. I used to be a commercial artist, too. Prefer fine arts. My ax is a forty year old Les Paul but I pick up an acoustic more often. My wheels are a '95 BMW K75RT with full faring. Guess I'm kinda ueber-Teutonic because my sidearm is a Walther P99 in 10mm configuration.
Maybe the David Carradine hippy/monk image was the wrong icon. Somebody needs to write the screenplay for the hard-rockin' metal-totin' biker/sensitive artist who happens to love gung fu.

Man, they undersell themselves on the web...
Ross Langlets invented the highwayman jacket. Cutting up old WWII bomber jackets, adding kidney belts, etc, until he came up with the designs for the 'Columbia". He's an icon, like 'Hankey-panky" is to tatoos.
They did the jackets for the SF Police dpt for years through the 60's. Also, most the custom body suits for the local racers.
Pick you basic style, pick your pocket config (including internal pistol pocket - 10 options I think) pick your weight of leather, colour, pads, yea, whatever.
Tell them what wrist you wear your watch on so they can put in the extra 1/2" needed to zip the wrist.
Probably the best handmade leathers you can buy. Says the wait is 1-3 months now, not bad compared to the past.
I went back 10 years later, and they put an extra couple of inches in it for me, just for cosmetic reasons, of course....
And Yes, Jamison, I'm calling you out!
My old-school handmade leather jacket will choke out your fancy kevlar racing gear.....er, ah, if it can catch it...
