Prefer the look of the Scott myself, not sure which is better quality wise.

Arlen Ness is good kit, but I'd buy the Scott because it's better quality and better looking.

Arlen ness, its gorgeous leather and fits great aswell (plus hg have a sale on-not sure if arlen ness is in it though)

The Arlen one has perforated panels - and at that price I doubt it's made from Kangaroo leather.

Unless the perforations are few and far between you stand a greater chance of it ripping if it's plain ol' cow or goat leather. But it says they are the chest panels, so not your main 'drag zones' (like shoulders, elbows or back) so it's probably not much of an issue.

Just something to think on.

Nope its not kangeroo and yes the peforations are on the chest, its quite a thick heavy leather-alot better than A* imo.
