Default gear store in Louisville?

Anyone know any large motorcycle gear stores in Louisville? I'm looking to buy a textile riding jacket and I need someplace that has a large selection. Most stores in Lexington have limited inventory.

Thanks in advance.

If you don't have to purchase the jacket locally, I would look online at www.newenough.com. I got my Joe Rocket textile jacket from them and it was a great price too.

I don't have to purchase locally, but jackets are usually a hard fit for me. I normally have to try on jackets to get the right mix of shoulder and chest room. I was looking for a place to try on stuff and possibly purchase if the price is right.

But the Lexington stores make up for it with high prices!

Sorry, no help here - I've bought my jackets online and I've been lucky with fit. You might want to post this same question on this board:

Here is a store that is right across the river in Indiana. This is where I go for stuff. Not sure what you mean by a big store but check out the website.
