Is there anybody else out there that goes weak in the knees when they see a a beautiful woman (or man for those of you with opposite tastes) dressed in leather? Do you get horny just walking into a leather store? (case in point, West Coast Leather ini SF, OMG, I walk out of that store hyperventilating!) If so, let's share sources! I have spent my whole life trying to find the best sources for fine leather apparel for myself and my play partners. I have a special place in my heart for a woman in expensive leather gloves, as such I am always looking for a source for them also. Over time my tastes have refined to "only the best" which is difficult to locate at a price that doesn't chew up the whole "play" budget. Anyone willing to jump in?

I'll start it off. For standard "street" leather I have found the best source is Ebay believe it or not. I have been able to virtually steal items there at 10% of their original price yet are virtually brand new (some still with tags on them). As an example, I purchased a Bebe leather trench coat there, made of the softest leather imaginable, that would have sold originally for upwards of $800. I paid $125 for it! This coat is one of the most beautifully cut trenches I have ever seen and its cut with a slimming shape. My partner gets so many compliments when she wears it!

Another of my favorite (somewhat recent) sources is leatherotics.com. I have purchased several items from them, the leather quality is awesome and their prices are reasonable. They also have many very different designs.

Those of you who share the same tastes already know about the "usual" (and also most expensive) sources. Northboundleather.com & Westcoastleather.com immediately come to mind. I'm looking for the lessor known sources.

I have lots more that I will share as this post grows. Thanks (in advance) for contributing!

If you love gloves you will love this site. These are most unique and awesome leather gloves. They are not cheap but I have bought from them and gave pair of gloves as a gift to a Mistress and she loved them.

www,inesgloves.com

I have tried to look on EBAY for leather attire and boots. I have been trying to find a good quality over the knee leather boot but I always seem to fine cheap or patent leather boots................I don't mind paying a couple hundred for some good leather boots.

Please email as i do not always get over to the boards.

Thanks

Inesgloves.com sells good stuff, I have bought from them before. For super high quality gloves I have had very good experience with http://www.quality-control.co.uk/products/operagloves/fulllengthoperagloves. What's cool is they offer them with or without the (old fashioned/classy) style of piping on the top of the hand (3 three raised stripes on the top of the glove you used to see all the time). The leather is impeccably soft and very thin so they conform perfectly to the hand.

Believe it or not I have also been impressed by the gloves from this seller on ebay... http://stores.ebay.com/worldclassleathergloves. The gloves they sell are decent/good quality at a shockingly affordable price. I have bought my girlfriend several of the styles and have been impressed with all of them.

In order to keep this thread going I will share a few more of my favorite leather sources with you...

http://www.luxtenebrae.com/home.html a source in europe for leather clothing designs that you don't find everywhere. There pricing has come down (especially with the decline of the euro) to the affordable level

I'll give you one more gem... I bought one of these corsets and I have to say WOW! The price is ridiculously low. I think the seller is the manufacturer trying to sell direct. The manufacturer is likely in Pakistan as much of the low priced (good quality) leather is coming out of there these days. All I can say is you can't beat the quality vs. price ratio on this one (you can also e-mail them and barter a bit)... http://isaura.ca

I have more sources that I will share when I see people are still listening. :)

Your wish is my command xxblushesxx! (great pics btw!)

Well, if money is no object, the most impeccable leather bondage goods I have found to date can be found at http://www.top-to-bottom-leathers.co.uk/ They seem to be the Rolls Royce of leather bondage goods. I have not found quality anywhere close to them, but you definitely pay for it.

Here's another gem I will share with those of you paying attention (let's make it our little secret!) This one has nothing to do with leather but I'm sure many (if not all) of you will find it useful.

I just stumbled on this source a few months ago, what a find it turned out to be!

http://steel-touch.com/

The website doesn't list the prices, you have to e-mail them and they send you a price list. A few hours after I contacted them I received the price list I was blown away! Virtually everything was 50% to 400% less than what I have paid throughout the years. If you need any steel items (from forceps/clamps to insertables), this is the place to go. What I have surmised is the reason that they don't list the prices on their site means that they are a manufacturer selling direct (not showing the price keeps them from getting in trouble with their distributors). They are based in Pakistan, and you can pay them with Paypal. I kind of went overboard on my first order and bought a ton of stuff out of fear that they would disappear. I can tell you the quality is very good on everything. They were also very responsive to my questions and spoke english reasonably well. They even e-mailed me several times after everything was shipped to make sure I received it ok. It took about 10 days to get it but everything arrived intact.

That's it for tonight. Still waiting for someone to step up and surprise me with a source that I haven't seen before! http://www.collarchat.com/micons/m21.gif
