Has anyone bought anything from this website before? His stuff looks pretty good. Sometime in the future I'd like to get some V-leather saddlebags. Like to hear from someone who might know something about it.
Thanks,
Rick

I bought a set of Easy Brackets from him. There was a quality control problem with one of the bolts and he took care of it very quickly. No complaints. Don't know anything about the bags.

Not to mention the quality of the leather was least what i was expecting, shipping was too expensive. I recommend other companies with high quality products. Check it out for yourself, you won't be impressed, the pictures are very small and decieving.
- Much more reputable sites out there.

I think you need to take another look at the site, if you click on the pictures they offer a full description of the product and the picture size is pretty large. the description in the Warrior bags sound like very quality leather. from what it claims the leather is full grain "US" Cowhide which is much thicker and denser because the upper (epidermis) is removed. they use this kind of leather for furniture and Horse Saddles. some of the other bags were made out of Latigo Leather which is softer and more flexible which is primarly used as a strap for tightening a saddle Girth which would have to be pretty strong to do that. Not a bad site, the bags are expensive as all get out, but like saying goes you get what you pay for, and that is definitely true when it comes to leather. If you skimp on price you will get bad quality leather and I don't mean from a cow!
