Custom Motorcycle Jacket

I'm looking for a motorcycle brand or company that specializes in custom fit leather jackets that come complete with armor inserts.

Would love some input on the topic. I'm 6'7'' 260lbs Chest 50 waist 34... doesn't bode well for any apparel let alone a motorcycle jacket.

Can you post a pick of hoodie please. I have been looking for something like that.
Friend Biffed the wall at 200MPH with his Top Fuel Harley just last Month...
Didn't hurt him Much, Hard on the Vanson Leathers... but, they did their Job!!! Admirably
Here in Cali we got Espinoza leather. They do custom work. Not sure If they have armor option, but worth asking
Fox Creek Leather has been great to deal with. Call them with your measurements and they get you what you need.
Will post pic of hoodie. Tomo can't go wrong for $

If you order hoodie from heroic, order a size larger, you need the room for all the armor.

Harley brands.. when not always the most protective,
They do sell oversized copies that are slim fit, and some armored and some with armor pocket features...

If money is not a issue Vanson builds the best protection gear..

For summer I have a Vanson Vent max..
It’s about twice as strong as any other builder.

Thanks I just added this to my Christmas list.
Vanson, no one comes close.
Meggie, have you seen the Langlitz jackets?

Have never heard anyone put Vanson ahead of them.

Columbia Motorcycle Jacket - Langlitz Leathers

I still have my custom Tauber pants and until I got a Langlitz I though the Tauber was the nicest leather I had ever seen.

Ray Tauber said he was getting out of custom leathers (this is 30 years ago) because it was getting so hard to get the really nice chrome tanned leather anymore.

But the Langlitz is actually a slight bit nicer.

Anyway, folks should check out Langlitz, they sell stuff off the rack but their custom leather is what they are famous for.

HTH.
