VK79

VK79 in Berlin replicates NYPD, LAPD and CHP motorcycle policemen's shirts, jackets and breeches in leather, and WW II German officer's breeches, shirts, tunics, jackets, coats and hats in leather from original historic patterns. And because the gear is custom made, they can alter colour, piping, padding and other extras to your personal specifications.

If you're a fan of the Leather and Law DVD, you're already familiar with their work, but a couple of images from the vk79.com website are included here just because they look so damn good.

If you're really into the gear worn by the men in the Leather and Law DVD, you have to check out their work.

As is the case with any custom-made gear, you'll get your best fit visiting them in person. Their workshop is located in Berlin's Karow-Weissensee district [address below], and you should make an appointment if you plan to get measured for a custom order.

If distance or finances preclude a personal visit, you can also order gear online from their website, or email them for price or other enquiries.
