I just recently purchased some gloves from them.  They were not expensive gloves, just some cool weather unlined leather gauntlet gloves.  I felt they were worth or actually better than what I paid for them.  I can't speak about their pants and jackets, I have never ordered anything else from them.

I bought a leather jacket, it looks like a shirt. The collar has snaps so it doesn't flap, an extra I didn't expect at the price. A nylon and leather jacket that was cheap cheap, cheap,,,but so was the price. A pair of leather pants that were ok, but very small.  Here's another cut rate leather spot...

I have bought boots, a helmet and some leather saddle bags from them over the years.  Boots are very good quality wise, helmet and bags haven't been used much yet.  Bags were well built.  When I had an issue with the helmet liner not being glued correctly and loose, their customer service was very responsive, they even paid for the return shipping.  So my experiences have been positive.

I've heard their stuff is not bad for the price.  Also heard their leather is from Pakistan and doesn't hold its color well (after rain).  I'd go ahead and treat it with some mink oil ahead of time to help its water proofing (don't know if that will help with the dye, though).

I purchased a vented jacket last summer from them. It was delivered quickly and have not had any issues with it all. Fits as I expected based on the reviews. I will defiantly use them again, just pay attention to the reviews for sizing.
