Buttpad arrived yesterday after a short, 2 business day journey from Alaska to NW Iowa!
Installed it today and took it for an hour and half test run--Miraculous!!
Since 1982 when I overdid a motorcylcle trip, it's been difficult for me to handle more than one hour on any kind of bike. I've tried floorboards, forward controls, highway pegs, beads, gelpads, inflatable seats, etc.
Result was always the same: one hour and done.
After my trip today the only reason I put the bike in the barn was because of a business appointment; could have ridden all evening.
Wonderful service, quality product.

Your sheepskin Buttpad is a terrific product! The first thing I did the morning after arriving in Anchorage was to stop in your store and pick up a Buttpad for my Softail Deuce. Needless to say, I sat on it the entire 5500-mile trip around Alaska and back to upstate New York! It gave me a much more comfortable ride—in cold, rain, heat and even some hail—16 days of riding in all! I just ordered a second one for my wife. It was great to meet you all and chat a little, too!

Hey,Y'all,
Ordered a 'Pad last Tuesday and received it on Friday. Not to shabby to No. Alabama..... I did not get to ride with it until yesterday and it is truly WONDROUS. Makes me WANT to "ride nekked". Feels sooooooooooooooooooo good!!!
Keep up the good work.
Thanx,

Dear AlaskaLeather,
I ordered a Medium Deluxe pad on Friday morning. Imagine my surprise when lunchtime on Monday the mailman delivered it. Wow! I received it the next business day, Alaska to Texas. Kudos to you for shipping out same day the order placed and to US Post Office for fast transit.
The pad itself exceeds my expectations as well. Beautiful soft, thick and evenly sheared sheepskin. Fits my Honda VTX1300S stock seat perfect. Everybody thinks that it is a custom made pad. Very comfortable and big improvement. Forget about Ultimate or Mustang seats, you saved me from wasting $500 on that purchase. Stock seat and Alaska Leather Deluxe pad is the way to go.
Best Regards,

After few months of using your Alaska leather cover on my BMW Gs here in
the south of Spain I wish to congratulate for your product. I cross the
Spain Mancha with 44º C hot in august, and throughout Andorra country wih less than 0º C in the morning. It’s fantastic how my seat was comfortable (with long and long journeys) without inconvenient of he hot and the cold! My order was fast and very well packaged from your office to here at the south of Spain, and is far away, since I have motorcycle, the least investment I did with the most and valuable result with a big quality article! Thanks a lot, your product is excellent and you are a very good professionals! You now have a ambassador with me!

I purchased one of your buttpads early in the spring of this year. My rides usually aren't too lengthy but long enough to get a bit fatigued in the maximus so I went looking for some relief short of purchasing an expensive new seat. I put your pad on my stock seat and really tested it this past weekend by driving over 500 miles in two days while attending a bike rally. We'll the proof was in the pudding....... not once did I think about my maximus. Your buttpad makes a huge difference in my riding comfort for a very reasonable price....... Thank you and keep up the great work! I'll be sure to recommend you guys to whom ever complains about riding comfort. Thanks,

Just wanted to let you know I received the seat pad yesterday, after only ordering it 5 days ago. I put it on right away, and it fits fine. It looks great as well. Thanks for your prompt service, and if I need anything else from your company, you can bet I won't hesitate to order.
Thanks again,

I just had to write to you and tell you how pleased I am with the buttpads. I installed the rider pad today before running some errands. Immediately I could tell I was going to be more comfortableon the stock seat of my R1200RT! The natural dark grey color (nearly black) is just gorgeous and agreat match for the bike. Thanks so much for calling and talking meout of my original choice. This is exactly what I needed and I reallyappreciate your effort to insure that I would be happy! It worked! I'm really looking forward to my next long trip. I'm sure it will beridden in great comfort now.

Dear Alaska leather, I received the sheepskin butt pad today. It fits well and feels great! Thanks,

Hey Guys and Girls at Alaska Leather,
I just received the covers for my Road King and my K1200LT and I am very pleased with the quality of the product and the hold down straps were well placed and though out. It took all of about 3 minutes per bike to add this exceptional accessory of comfort. The shipping was great also and almost beat me back home from the beach. I put 37,000 miles on my Kawasaki Voyager on one of these hides and all the miles were comfortable. You know a Corbin seat is good for extremely long rides but not as comfortable as with a sheep skin cover. Cool in the summer and warm in the winter is the best of both worlds.
Thanks for such a quality accessory that allows me to enjoy touring longer than a custom or stock seat.

I have never had such good service. Ordered it Sat. got it today Mon. 15th. Thank you so much.Now if the weather will improve I'll try it out.Thanks again.

I placed my order on Friday night at about 10:00 pm central time. My butt pad was in my mail box here in Iowa Tuesday when I got home from work. The charcoal colored deluxe large fits my seat perfectly and looks better than any pad I've seen! Very high quality, plush sheep skin. Thank you Alaska Leather for the excellent product and excellent service. Only in America.
Sincerely satisfied,
John
Hi Barb and Jim, I live and ride everyday in Arizona, In Central and Southern AZ, the weather in the summer is hotter than the south side of the sun. In Northern AZ it can go from just plain hot to teeth chattering cold in amatter of miles. On Saturday, Labor Day weekend, I did a 500+ mile roundtrip ride to Tombstone and Bisbee taking the roads less traveled, fifty of which were on a stretch of unimproved road that follows the San Pedroriver south to Benson, AZ.
After long hours in the stock saddle of my 2007 BMW R1200GS, the term Monkey Butt hardly described my condition. On Tuesday morning, I ordered the Medium Buttpad Deluxe. I received my new Buttpad on Friday, less than a week after I ordered it. and the color is perfect for my custom desert camo paint job. Tried it out the next dayand rode 300+ miles with no complaints from my butt. What a difference. I am telling everyone I ride with to buy one. Your Buttpad saved my butt.

The first time I used my butt pad, I rode to Atlanta (about 350 miles) in the middle of the summer. All I can say is that the difference in comfort was just amazing. Since that time I have logged more than 50K miles on the pad. Much like my credit card, " I don't leave home without it". My most recent trip took me from Gainesville, Fl, to the furthermost northwest point on the lower 48 states, Cape Trails, Wa. I was gone 31 days and traveled 10200 miles, including a witnessed and veryified "Iron Butt Ride" of 1021 miles in 19 hours. I cound never had done this without the comfort of the pad.
Now about 4 years later, my pad was in need of repair. I contacted Barb at Alaska Leather and the repairs were made without charging me a penny. She was also kind enough to include a new strap to replace the one that was completely worn out. And the best part is that the turn around time was 7 days. I really wish to extend my thanks to Barb and Alaska Leather.
GREAT PRODUCT-GREAT SERVICE!

I recently rode from northwestern Virginia to northeastern Tennessee and back, about 680 miles round trip. About the last 100 miles or so each way I started to feel that familiar pain in the rear I get when I ride for longer distances. Some people would say that the distance I rode was not that long, but I have degenerative disk disease and have had two lower back surgeries. While I can still ride, the distances I can travel in one shot have been drastically cut. I looked into several options to make my seat a little more comfortable on these trips. I saw that several people said that the gel pad pads are okay, but many also said that they seemed to be quite hard. Also, I couldn't afford to dump a lot of money into a new seat. I only need something that will give me a little bit of softness, while allowing some air to get through. This combination would be perfect for me. I saw your ad and gave you a call. The lady I spoke with on the phone recommended the deluxe buttpad and even told me the charcoal pads you have right now had a very dense coat on them. Based on her recommendation, I purchased the buttpad and the backrest pad. I placed my order on Wednesday and it arrived on Saturday. Not bad, Alaska to Virginia in four days. I just tried the pad on my Valkyrie and it felt great. It was extremely soft and gave me a nice amount of cushion. I can't wait to take it on the road and see how it performs. I'll let you know how my first long trip goes, but I look forward to it. In all, you can't beat the type of product you make as far as quality goes and the price won't break the bank either.

Thanks a ton Alaska Leather. I used my pad for my 1st long distance ride this weekend on my 2002 Shadow ACE and it was awesome. I road about 700 miles round trip. I don't want to know how I would have felt without one. Now I just need to get one for my wife's seat behind me. Thanks again. This was the best bang for my buck.

To whom it may concern; I just wanted to say how pleased I am with my Alaska Leather Sheep Skin ButtPad. I purchased the "Medium, Deluxe, Black with the attached Nose Strap". As you can see it fit my 2003 Triumph Bonneville, T-100 perfectly and it really softens the ride. If you wish, feel free to use my endorsement and any of the attached photos in your advertisements.

Thanks gang!!!!! I recently placed an order with you and you were all over it. I received my order very promptly and am pleased with my sheepskin pad...I also told the people at the Silver Wing forum how pleased I was.
The first thing I do before buying most products is read the reviews to see how others liked it. The reviews on Alaska Leather are what prompted me to buy sheepskin over wooden beads.
I just (last night) finished riding from Bloomington, IL through the Tail of the Dragon(Deal's Gap) to Daytona Beach, FL for Biketroberfest and back. A total of 2,389 miles in 7 days and I used the Deluxe Buttpad for the ride down and back. On day one we rode just over 600 miles and my rear end began to get sore by the end of the day's ride. Without the buttpad my rear would have been sore the first 100 miles. Although nothing will keep your rear from getting some soreness on very long rides, the Alaska Leather Buttpad will allow you to go much farther than was possible without it. I called them prior to ordering on-line and they were very helpful with ensuring I received the color and style I was wanting. I'm very pleased with their service and their product. Thanks Alaska Leather!

I would like thank Alaska Leather for the BEST service I have ever received from any company on the internet!! I placed an order for a Deluxe Silver Medium Butt Pad on, Friday morning, August 29th at 4:30 AM EST. The pad was in my mailbox on Tuesday September 2nd. From Alaska to Maryland over Labor Day weekend! It took me longer to remove the seat then it took to install the pad. I took the bike out as soon as the seat was reinstalled and it felt like a new seat was installed. Comfortable and it looks good. I am already telling all fellow bikers about this butt pad and the quick turn around from Alaska Leather! There’s a whole bunch of companies that could take lessons from Alaska Leather when it comes to service.
Dear Barb & the Gang at Alaska Leather,
I just received my order today and I just have to tell you how happy I am with the Butt Pad and the Cord on Blue!! Great products!! The Butt Pad is a perfect fit, I chose the Black Deluxe Med. size "BP" and it compliments the Mustang Seats nicely. The Cord on Blues really do work and holds the helmets snugly without damage, No more falling off the wall or rolling off the bench. I will be a return customer for sure.
Thanks for the great service!

I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you about my experience with one of you sheepskin covers that I purchased a couple of months ago. I recently returned from Daytona Beach, Florida to my home in Phoenix. Your cover enabled me to ride 850 and 1000 mile days on my journey to and from Florida. This was never possible on the same motorcycle without the cover. I tell everyone that rides what a tremendous difference the cover makes. Thanks for a great product at a great price!!

Late last week, I ordered a seat pad for my Bike. To my surprise, it was in my mailbox on Monday. All I can say is wow! Really great delivery and the pad exceeded my expectations. I even thanked the guy I work with that suggested you guys. Thanks again.

This thing is great! Exceeded my expectations, fit and felt fantastic. Shipping was so fast I could barely believe it. I wondered how it happened! I ordered it, turned around and it was there. Pleasant surprises all around with this company.
