Pittsburgh Cowhide Leather Motorcycle Jacket

This jacket is a a tank. All the stitching is well done. It’s what you would want out of a durable leather jacket and is warm in cold weather. I’m 6’1” 202 lbs and I got a XL Long. It fits good but I would have like to tried the large. It fits wide across the chest but that may be how it’s supposed to fit. Overall, I’m pleased with it and it looks great with a uniform.

Great looking jacket.

first off, my personal favorite is another Taylor, the LAPD jacket which i wear with a faux fur collar. it's just a style preference, but i collect these (and wear them) and wanted the slantzipper with crossover lapel iconic 4473Z, recognized as one of the most classic police motorcycle jackets.

aside from my style preference for the LAPD, both are of the best style and construction. at 6', 175 lb i bought my 48L (equal to an XL long) from a police dept sale years ago. It lay scrunched up for years, unworn by both me and the pd that sold it to me. unscrunching it to wear after recalling i had it, the first thing i noticed was the premium leather had no marks whatsoever after several years at the bottom of a pile of leather jackets. the thing looks brand new.

there's a huge difference between wearing it with the inner liner, which turns this into a very warm cold-weather jacket equal to any parka. but being in L.A., taking out the liner yields a super lightweight but super strong flexible leather that can be worn on 70 degree fall or early spring days...3 seasons.

super comfortable for coffee or movie nights, the bi-swing and long arms of my 48L (or XLL) keep reaching for handlebars as unrestricted as if not wearing a jacket.

i love the LAPD style and get many compliments and stares, but this is such a sweet jacket it threatens my jacket hierarchy. i recommend getting this Taylor version of the classic motorcycle jacket over any other maker's.

Fits like a glove

I wish it was a little longer in the waste other than that it's a good jacket it has been keeping me warm
