I've had the perf retro one (black with checkerboard graphic) for over three years. Constant use and its holding up like a champ. Good quality stuff.

I like the Pioneer model. I believe it is being replaced by the Bomber. Nice looking, high quality jacket.

I've been using the Classic Jeans since 98/99 or so. Really great stuff. I've lost some weight, went down one size, so I need to get another pair. But the quality of the product is top notch. I've also have been using their gloves. They last longer than any other gloves I've had.

Any of the online Triumph dealers will order the stuff for you. As usual - you need to be spot on with the size.

Hey TBSstunta..... I almost bought the perf retro jacket today but got nervous about the durability of the perf leather (i.e. how well it would protect compared with reg. leather). I was also wondering about how comfortable the jacket would be in different kinds of weather?

Cheers,
Sigi

Sigi,
I have a perforated Pioneer jacket (size 42r) that I am thinking of selling. Aside from the Vanson, I do not think there are better perforated leather jackets out there for non-racing situation. I looked at many, Fieldsheer, HeinGericke, ect.. and I decided on the Pioneer. I also like the style, but I like the lightweight of the textile jacket. Let me know if you are interested. The jacket was bought last summer (03), but I hardly ride with it at all. about a dozen time or so during the past two summers.
Nick.

Sigi, I have been endlessly happy with my jacket. Event the sticthing on the checkerboards has held up excellently. If its going to be cold I wear my Gerbing under it, or my rainsuit over it. That's how I deal with different temperatures and conditions. I highly recommend it.

I have the urban leather jacket (image below) and I love it. It is primarily my colder month jacket. The quality is outstanding in my eyes (going into my second season wearing it).
