Our "Indy" Bison is a new leather for us that was first introduced in late 2021 and has become one of our most popular and best selling jacket and vest leathers. The rugged & tough American bison leather has a "worn-in" vintage look and feel. The hides are a full 3-3.5 oz. weight, slightly heavier than most garment leathers, but not as thick as it looks. The deep distressed tannage is everything we love about American bison leather. The natural, bold grain, heavy waxes and healed battle scars set this leather apart.  They are a little heavier & stiffer than our traditional bison leather, but it won't last. Wear the leather like a new pair of western boots and you will feel it soften and mold to your body in days. A unique leather and an exclusive design that you won't find anywhere else.

This product features our original and signature CCW (Concealed Carry Weapon) pockets. Built on both the LEFT and RIGHT inside panels of the jacket or vest and accessible with a snap closure system. The pockets are lined with a durable 310 Denier nylon and a removable and adjustable retention strap/holster that is attached with Velcro®. 

When not used for CCW, the pockets are fully-functional and can be used for travel, wallets, documents or any other personal valuables. 

We love building products a lot more than repairing them!  That’s why we design and build our products to last. We want the product to give you a lifetime of use, but if they fail due to a manufacturing defect, we will repair the product or replace it at little or no charge for the life of the product. 

There are some limitations and we do offer a “CLC Trade-In” program as well. Click here to read more about our complete warranty & trade-in policies.

Our vests and jackets are US sized in what we consider to be “TRUE TO SIZE”. Because our garments are graded in US even number sizes, they move up and down in smaller increments. 

In general, you should order 1-2” larger than your “upper chest” measurement. This also  depends on your "Fit Preference", so consider what you will wear under the vest and how you prefer the fit (slim tapering or full cut).  If you will layer with the jacket or live in a colder climate, you may want to lean towards 2-3" more than your chest. In most cases 1-2" above the largest section of your torso would be your "Order Size".

TALL CUT
A “Tall Cut” Vest will be 2” longer (front and back). Nothing else changes.
A "Tall Cut” Jacket will be 2” longer in the body and 1” longer in the sleeve.  

ALPHA SIZE to NUMERIC SIZE
Although alpha sizing is very different by manufacturer, a loose comparison would be as follows;
MED=40,42  | LRG=44,46 | XL=48,50 | 2X=52,54  | 3X=56,58
