Hi guys,
I was just wondering if there is any leather jacket with the alligator clip or any kind of clip at the bottom of the jacket so I can attach the jacket to my riding pants or jeans?

Some pants have a zipper to mate up with jackets that also have a purpose zipper.
Never heard of jeans so equipped. Don't know if an alligator clip would hold up to the stress and movement.
Buy a 2 piece suit.

Usually the jacket and pants join together by an 8" zipper in the back for street riding.

My mesh Joe Rocket jacket for summer riding has snap loops that I attach to my belt. If your jacket has the 8" zipper in the back, you could probably have someone sew a mating zipper half onto your jeans.

I highly recommend this option :thumbsup: My 2 cents: a 2-pc suit is more "versatile" because you can remove the jacket while off the bike during breaks; use the jacket by itself and you can use other jackets with your pants (as long as the zippers are compatible). Plus so much easier getting in-and-out vs a 1-piece which no doubt will do much better in a bad spill.
P.S. If you have any track plans, check with them if a 2-pc is OK.

My Kevlar lined jeans came with the zipper in the back that attaches to my Icon jacket... Definitely not a track set up, but works getting around town and jeans are padded in the impact zones as well.
