Seattle Men in Leather

Seattle Men in Leather is a community organisation for gay men in the leather scene, founded in March 1989. It is best known for producing the annual Seattle Men in Leather contest, which picks a titleholder who represents the city's leather community and raises money for local causes during the year. This is not a bar or a venue: the Pike Street address is a mailbox, not a place to visit. If you are in town and interested, check the website for the contest date and related socials, which usually take place at Capitol Hill bars. Dress codes at leather events vary, so read the event listing before you go.
