Leather jackets will forever be connected with motorcycles. Some says that Marlon Brando popularized it when he wore it in a movie called "The Wild One" many years ago. While it is true that aesthetically, motorcycle jackets do bring out a certain tough and sexy image that most people would crave for, there is another important reason behind a rider's preference in wearing them and that they are simply for protection.
There are other types of jackets available for any motorcyclist but leather is one excellent material for protection of the body especially if they are made of high quality leather. Choosing it for a motorcycle jacket is a great investment. It is not as affordable as the other clothing material are but when you are riding down the road exposed to all the elements, you definitely need to shield your body with something tough. Leather is abrasion-resistant and that it is thicker than other clothing material.
Motorcycle jackets are also a necessity when it comes to cold winds. Even in a sunny day, cruising down the road in a certain speed would mean strong winds and if you are on a dusty road, you might want some covering for your body. These days, these leather jackets are also made to be waterproofed which protects the rider from the rain. This is the reason why it is an important part in motorcycle clothing.

Where to Shop for the Perfect Wedding Dress
There are a lot of things to think about when you are planning your wedding, but one of the more enjoyable tasks should be picking out a wedding dress. Every bride wants to find the perfect dress that makes her feel like a princess. There are a few things that you should look for in the stores you use that will save you a lot of headaches though. There is nothing as frustrating as seeing your idea of "the perfect dress" on a hanger only to discover that they don't have any more of that style in your size. You can avoid this disappointment by shopping at stores with a large selection of dresses.
Some wedding dress stores are simply more expensive than others. To find better deals, look for stores that are stocked by their own factories. When a store is stocked by its own factory they can cut down on costs of buying dresses from a different manufacturer and pass those saving down to you. If you shop smart, you can buy a beautiful wedding dress for a third of the price that others are selling for even though yours is just as beautiful.
Most shops have different styles of dresses in several different sizes on-site, but some only have one size of each style. These stores then order the style you like in the size you need. The positive result of this process is that you can be sure that no one has ever worn your wedding dress before and the store doesn't end up with unsold dresses.
