I've been wanting a new leather jacket for some time now. My current one is okay. I've had it for about five years and I bought it used. It has served me well. I'll, of course, be keeping it as my weather-looks-ugly-better-wear-this jacket. But now, I have a brand new Roland Sands Ronin leather jacket on the way!

Yes, it's pricey and doesn't come with armor (has pockets for armor) but the styling is great. Online reviews describe the workmanship as top notch. Plus, I used PayPal credit and I have 12 months, interest free, to pay it off. I'll be doing that long before 12 months and when I do, I'll be looking for new boots. Oh, the jacket was $574 on eBay.

Thank you Cormanus. I think it will go well with my CB.

Sweet looking jacket. Brown used to be a fairly popular motorcycle gear color. Rare to see it these days.

I love the Ronin. I get nervous that I'll look like 5lbs of sausage in a 3lb casing, but it is on my list of leather jacket possibilities. Looking forward to your review.

Thanks! In keeping with things that are a bit out dated, I received a Polaroid One Step for Christmas with a pack of film which was, by far, the highlight of the presents I received.

That's a sweet jacket. I'm going to enjoy some sausage tomorrow at breakfast to celebrate your purchase.
