I hear ya!  I'm still using my FG Kenya riding jacky from '01 and a more recent FG Kathmandu for cold weather riding.  I also have a FG Scout leather jacket I bought from a friend 20 years ago but couldn't tell ya the last time I wore it. FWIW.

I've got the scout leather jacket too the one with the big zipper vents front and rear, and the scoops in the wrist area to blow air up your arms. I've had it going on 30 years. It used to be a nice dark saddle Brown now it's faded. Unfortunately it doesn't have any built-in padding so I don't wear it for anything other than around town.

That was my wife pointed out the other day, even though it's still fits me, it is a bit tight in the midsection. LOL

My newest boots are a pair of Sidi Adventures which are currently on sale at Revzilla for $338.00 which is a good deal IMO. Surprisingly comfortable given their looks and are waterproof given my experience. The buckles tend to squeak though I’m sure some virgin olive oil would solve that problem but it doesn’t bother me. Also have an ancient pair of Sidi Road boots which are about 12+ years old which I use for most around town riding, they have been re-soled once and the waterproofing is less than perfect. Unfortunately Sidi no longer makes this boot. Also have an ancient couple more pairs of Sidi’s, vented and what they call Road but I wouldn’t want to walk too far with those boots.
