Any good motorcycle-clothes stores in NYC-Area ? ? ?
« on: September 26, 2012, 12:46:28 PM »
Hi !

Im going to NYC this winter and wondering if there anyone here that has any tip about a store in NYC/NY that sells motorcycle clothes.
Im looking for a leather jacket, I don't know the price situation in US but somewhere around 350 dollars is what they cost home in Sweden.

Im looking for jacket like this


So any tip or suggestions about any mc gear/ mc clothes in NY is appreciated.

I would also like motorcycle gadget store (if there is) like stores that might sell steering dampers, fork braces etc.

Anything, just write.
Please ! Take a look and give me feedback in my project thread, its much needed :)

Viktor, you're going to pay twice as much for everything in NYC.  your best bet is to try and go shopping outside of the city.  I'm sure there are some forum members from somewhere outside of the city who could give you some good places to shop.

Look at Revzilla.com and check out their latest RevIt leather jackets. Very similar to what you posted and they are very good quality with good leather.

Also check out Weiss leather jackets.

Good luck

There is a cool shop just south of Works Engineering, they specialize in made in the U.S. stuff like Pointer Brand http://www.pointerbrand.com/... expensive but top quality stuff. They dont have a ton of stuff and not all of it is bike specific but its still worth checking out.
