About Mates

A kick-back, have a good time, meet some hot new friends weekend for those who want to hang out, socialize, relax or party with other like-minded people in Leather, Rubber and Uniforms.

Mates Leather Weekend is brought to you by Rick Conley, longtime Provincetown resident and leatherman. I want to thank all MLW sponsors, friends and past participants who have contributed to the success of Mates Leather Weekend. I’m grateful for all the new friends that I’ve made along the way.

I take great pride in the quality of men and women that attend MLW. There is no attitude here, just folks that are down-to-earth, friendly, and nice to look at. It takes a lot of effort to put on an event like this. I hope you enjoy it.

What They Are Saying

I'm just writing to say what a really great time my boyfriend, Mike & I had. Thanks so much for going to all that trouble to put together such an amazing weekend. You guys do an incredible job. I had so much fucking fun! I can't wait for next year.

Paul & Michael | NYC

It was the most awesome time I've ever had. I've never felt so comfortable in being with other leathermen.

Mark | Providence, RI

Hey Rick, Thanks for a fantastic "Mates." It was the first for my partner and me and we had a blast. Having just come off Folsom (our first as well) we found "Mates" to be a much more social and engaging weekend. We look forward to many more over the years.

Jason

Thanks for a great event. A real great group of men.
