Anything else
The Blacktop Gear Buffalo Black Braided Vest is a men's biker club vest in genuine full-grain buffalo leather, finished with hand-braided red trim around the edges and tied with leather cords. Adjustable with three front buckles and expandable side lacing, it closes with three chrome carabiner clasps. Two outer pockets and two inside pockets sit up front, with a clean back left open for patches. Handmade to order in sizes S to 9XL, with free delivery within the USA.
Design & Build
The red hand-braided trim running around the edge is what sets this vest apart — braided by hand onto full-grain buffalo leather rather than printed or stitched flat, so it holds its shape and colour ride after ride.
The fit is built around adjustment, not a fixed cut. Leather cord ties the vest closed all around, three front buckles bring the fit in or let it out, and the sides lace up with up to 5cm of extra room per side when you need it. Closure is by three chrome carabiner clasps rather than a zip. The back is left completely clean with no centre seam — built for a full patch set.

Who wears this vest
- Club members who want a clean back — no centre seam, built for a full patch set
- Riders who want standout detailing — red hand-braided trim against black buffalo leather is a rare combination
- Riders who need serious fit adjustment — buckles, cord ties, and expandable side lacing all in one vest

Over a plain tee or a hoodie with jeans and boots — the buckle and cord adjustment keeps the fit close whether you're layering underneath or not. Open the side lacing for a looser fit over a hoodie in cooler weather.
