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.
- Rick Conley
Provincetown
Provincetown is a gay-friendly oceanside community. Generally the weather is cool in the fall, making it ideal to wear your leather, rubber or uniform. You can feel comfortable shopping, walking the streets day or night, dining, hiking on the beach and touring the bars in your leather, rubber or uniform…and I hope you will!

SNOWBOUND CANCELED DUE TO COVID
/in News /by Rick ConleyAs you all may have imagined, Snowbound Leather Weekend will not be happening this month due to the pandemic. I am MOST HOPEFUL that we will be able to celebrate Mates Leather Weekend September 30-October 4, 2021. I, for one, can’t wait! See you then!
MLW 2020 T-shirt Sales to Benefit ASGCC
/in News /by Rick ConleyAlthough we could not gather this year to celebrate the brotherhood, camaraderie and fun-filled events of Mates Leather Weekend, we did not want the year to go by without doing something to raise funds for AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod. Our friends from Good and Evil Creations designed and produced this t-shirt at Mom’s Printshop who allowed G&E to use their print studio. Silkscreen on black 100% pre-shrunk cotton. Net proceeds benefit www.asgcc.org. Order through www.matesleatherweekend.com. Quantities are limited.
MLW Canceled Due to Covid
/in News /by Rick ConleySo sorry & sad to say that Mates Leather Weekend will not be taking place this year due to the pandemic. While we wait for better days, please consider making a donation to @aidssupportgroupofcapecod in honor of MLW through the http://asgcc.org website. MLW will hopefully return 09/30-10/04/21. Until then, stay well, stay healthy and please please please VOTE!
MLW 2020 Unlikely To Take Place
/in News /by Rick ConleyIt is unlikely that Mates Leather Weekend will take place this year considering the uncertainty of the world we live in and the ever changing, rarely positive news.
In hope for some kind of miracle, the final decision will be postponed until early September. Until then, please stay safe and healthy because, if MLW 2020 doesn’t happen, you know MLW 2021 will be the best f*cking leather gathering in history.
