Mates Leather Weekend XXVI
Sep 28 - Oct 2, 2023

What they are saying…

About Mates Leather Weekend

Being my first MLW didn't know what to expect. What I found was a group of genuine friendly and very hot guys. Over exceeded my expectations. A great weekend for me.

Tommy | Guilford, CT

My other half had been to P-Town many times, but it was my first and really enjoyed all the activities. Great job!

Mike Brewer | Albany, NY

Thanks for doing such a great job organizing the weekend! It was my first time at Mate's and I had a great time. I'll plan to be there next year.

Steve Smith

Once again you did a great job. Excellent organization, friendly and courteous staff. Had a wonderful time and look forward to next year.

Robert | Superior, CO

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

DAMN! You guys did it again! Didn't think you could top Mates '05, but you certainly did with Mates '06! Can't imagine what's in store for '07, but it's making us horny just thinking about it..GRRR..WOOF! Thanks Mike and Rick for all your hard work.

Richard & Dennis

Attended the 2007 competition and totally enjoyed every aspect of the event. It got me thinking about entering the competition for 2008. A great event guys, keep up the good work!

Dan | Taunton, MA

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

Mark | Providence, RI

Mates 2017 was one of the most fun weekends we've EVER had!  Dates for 2018?  I want to get it on my calendar ASAP.

Gregory from Chicago

Hi guys, though I did not participate in all the events, my friend and I had a fun time at all the ones we could include. Thanks for all your hard work and bless your organizational skills.

Bobby | Provincetown, MA

You've done it again! Another hot, fucking Mates Weekend. An awesome X Anniversary! I had a great time and definitely lost any inhibitions -- to say the least -- met some friendly, very playful guys and got to wear leather all weekend. Looking forward to next time!

Joey | Provincetown, MA

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

Mike & Lenny | 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

Another Great Year! I had the BEST time this year...the guys I met were so incredible. Looking forward to next year already.

Steve | New Britain, CT

I ATTENDED MLW FOR MY FIRST TIME IN 2015.
I WAS WELCOMED AND INCLUDED IN ACTIVITIES.....THAT MADE ME FEEL A PART OF THE COMMUNITY AND LESS OF A FIRST TIMER.  I HAD A GREAT TIME, I ALREADY REGISTERED FOR THE 2016 EVENT AND HOTEL. LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ALL IN A FEW MONTHS

Tony | West Haverstraw NY

This event was a BLAST. I had more fun & met more sociable MEN here than I have ever met at any other event or venue. See you again in 08. Rick, you've done a superb job!

Steve | MA

As literally the only guy in street clothes I can say I had an amazing time. Everyone was respectful of me and never questioned why I did not dress. I am coming next year! The vault party was a memory I can hardly forget.

Brad | Salem, NH

As a birthday gift from Master on my 21st birthday, Leather Mates Weekend was the greatest coming of age that I ever could have wished for. We met so many hot men and brought home so many memories - and new gear.

Boy Nicholas | Cape Cod, MA

Just got back from my first Mates Weekend. What a blast! Loads of very hot men and a variety of activities. Best of all, everyone was so damn friendly. Can't wait for next year. Thanks, Rick!

Paul | Providence, RI

I had a blast as I know everyone else did too. It was clearly the best gathering so far. I am serious. If you need a spokesman to advertise the event, let me know.

Tex | Washington, DC

This was my first Mates Leather weekend and I had a blast! You have no idea what a boost it was - and everyone was so friendly. Thanks again. I will be booking holidays for next year - that's for sure.

Dan | Ontario

My ass and my ego want to thank you. Both are probably a little swollen but there is still a big smile on my face.

My husband and I had such a great time at our first Mates this year. We met quite a few real friendly guys as well as saw a lot of friends we haven’t seen in some time. Overall, we had such a good time we’ll definitely be back next year.
