Got a new riding vest yesterday. It appears to be HIGH quality!!! LOVE it! Doesnt hurt that it is designed for concealed carry...... I got the daytona Lace Up.....it was between that one and the long plain one....

Its cool to see other companies, that you might not normally see. Are they American made? They say basesd in CA, which can mean anything these days. Red Wing goes on about being based in Redwing, MN, but they don't mention boots are made in China.

Alas, mine was made in Mexico....but I think that it is better then in China..... but seems to be a pretty decent quality!

Coronado Leather has some high quality merchandise! You made a great choice! Let us know how that inside holster works for you. I've got a Fox Creek vest with a holster pocket, but it seems way too small to hold a decent size handgun. I'm interested to know how yours is.

I tried it out today....I carry a Taurus PT 145 (.45 sub-compact). Plenty of space for it in the pocket, but heavy tho....bet if I got a kel tec .380 or .32 it would be a DREAM!!! firearm weight would be the only draw back on it..... space is not an issue, and I like the "holster sleeve" that it came with.

Berserker, I have seen some cheaper quality vests that costs about the same as this one....HEAVY leather, good stitching, great fit and finish..... I have no doubt that there is some profit margin built in, but compared to some of the light weight, "cheap" appearing vests that I have seen that are just about as expensive.....I got a good deal...and most of those cheap ones are not designed for carry....just simple vest! I do know what you are saying tho!

Its 1/2 step better. But you can't tell me at those prices, you can't produce in America and make money. Thats what I am sick of. Greedy bastards. Those are not cheap.

It just chaps my ass when they charge that much, and still make it overseas. You can't tell me, at those prices they couldn't make it here. I willing to pay for quality, just wish it was made here.
