shatzbot10 Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 which will stick (securely) to my leather jacket. Cannot find online. Any suggestions? Thanks, Joe Link to comment
Tony_K Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Well you will need to step away from the lazy way (stickers wont work) and step up to the professional way 3M Scotchlite . Have it professionally sewn in your desired location on jacket. That or get a reflective safety vest or new jacket with it already incorporated. Link to comment
shatzbot10 Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 Drat! I was afraid those were my only options. Thanks, anyway. Joe Link to comment
EffBee Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Since I make/sell the reflective kits that stick on the backs of your saddlebags, I once had the same idea, too. I tried, but couldn't find anything that would stick to fabric or leather with any consistency or durability. Sewing the reflective on your garments is the only way. Link to comment
tallman Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I looked. A lot. There are options, but in the end I wasn't ure they would endure to the elemental exposure over time. So, sew, or buy with it already added, or try a vest. The vest allows you to keep you leather intact and not sew something permanently to it. I'd say look at the options such as those at New Enough , and they have others. Best wishes. Link to comment
BULLman Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Actually, I bought this very thing from my dealer Worked well on my textile jackets. Don't know how well it will work on leather. I can't remember the name of the product. Call the dealer, maybe they can help.

Selden Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Aside from added visibility, most Hi-Viz vests have a removable hook-and-loop ID holder for credit card, license, etc. which is extremely handy on long trips. Motorcycle Superstore currently has Yoshimura Hi-Viz vests on sale for $19.95. Link to comment
