One of our earlier designs first introduced in our 2003 Catalog.  A classic "Motorcycle Style" vest with standout details, heavyweight leather and our dual CCW pockets. This version was a variation of our V-Rider but with the snap-back collar design.  

Designed in conjunction with experienced riders; tested over several months and hundreds of miles of riding. We used a black pebbled cowhide or a stout American Bison leather, both in black and a heavier (3.5-4oz.) weight. The hides are water-resistant with a protected finish to handle the elements better. Other features include wider cut shoulders to minimize the wind effects, a heavy-duty #10 brass Ykk zipper under a leather flap with snap closures, four front pockets, our signature CCW pockets and a full-panel (one-piece) back. An exceptional vest for riding or just exploring.

In the Summer of 1989 we designed and build our first leather (CCW) concealed-carry wear vest. It was classic black motorcycle vest that was common in the 80’s built with internal CCW pockets, something not so easy to find back then.
Today, we still design & build a complete collection of men’s leather vests from premium leathers, quality brass YKK zippers and custom sourced snaps, all with internal CCW pocketsWe design all of our vests & jackets in our California Leather Shop and built them in our own custom leather shop in Mexico,  where generations of leather crafting knowledge has been passed down. Our craftsmen here work only on outerwear and nothing else. Each vest cut by hand from the finest quality hides from around the world.  We hand-set snap holes, skive edges & pride ourselves on designing functional and timeless vest designs.click here to read more about the NEW Pioneer Vest Collection
