 Not all leatherwear has to be black. This hot looking short-sleeved blue shirt is actually worn by police in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia -- with navy leather pants, too! When I saw this shirt in 1996 on a hot young Aussie Bike Cop, I made a note that I wanted to get one. I got this one from Mr. S. Leather of San Francisco, California.
I like these features: drum-died leather, so the color will stay permanently on the shirt, and not turn me into a Smurf when I sweat; black leather accents on the left and right pockets, epaulets, and neck; long tails so it stays tucked in when active while wear it; and superb craftsmanship. I did not like the snaps that came with it. After several years, the snaps became loose and would unsnap when I wore it. I had a zipper installed by a luggage repair shop in December, 2009. The zipper runs on the inside of the front and holds it closed so it looks sharp!
