Store for jackets, boots, etc in the northeast?

[mgalactico]

I live in western MA (north shore if you are fron around here) and at I do not feel I've found a good store in the state with a good selection of jackets and boots. Any recommendations for stores in NH or other parts of MA for gear?

Go to that local store and get sized for a jacket. Knowing your dimensions, you can then start shopping many of the awesome and reputable online dealers and save yourself tons of cash.

Just be sure to measure first. I wear 2xl and ordered a 3xl leather jacket, and it is actually a l-xl. So now I'm trying to sell to recoup my money.

Newenough.com has changed to Motorcyclegear.com. They are just a few miles from where I live. I bought my Tourmaster jacket from them for a steal (clearance price). I had no problems with the online transaction, or the product. They do give advice on some of their products, such as to order one size smaller for my jacket, and it fits well. And usually several photos of the product being worn/in use.

http://www.amazon.com can be a good source if you know the size, but I have found I can often save a couple dollars by going to the vendor's site that is shown on Amazon. I use Amazon for a sort of search engine when researching gear.

Concerning boots, I have found that I wear different sizes of footwear, depending on the manufacturer. I won't order footwear on-line for that reason.
