    Schott goes after the Restoration Hardware crowd

    That's a great customer policy, thanks for the help. ( Going to the Insurrection site now.)

    Schott goes after the Restoration Hardware crowd

    Mojo, what do you do if a customer's jacket doesn't fit, yet you don't have another size in stock for him to exchange it with?

    YES, it's TRUE! the SCHOTT 641 STEERHiDE REViEWED! with a picture!

    JJ, What is the bottom of this jacket like at the zipper when the jacket is zipped? Is there a long, open space below the zipper itself?

    Schott 618 Horsehide Perfecto: Opinions?

    Can anyone speculate why none of the Schott horsehide jackets have a zip out liner, whereas, the cowhide leather jackets of the same style do?

    Does anybody use the cigarette pocket anymore?

    A cigarette pocket is meant for one thing: cigarettes. If you wear a tough leather jacket, you smoke. Non-smokers and health nuts need not apply. My Perfecto says one thing: I'm dying young. Maybe with a switchblade. Maybe on my motorcycle, running from a gang. So yea, I smoke. They may be...

    Opinions regarding Schott Vintaged Perfecto Jacket 618V1?

    Butte, I don't know how wise it is to disagree with a man that looks like an NFL linebacker, but it doesn't matter how long I wear it, my jacket is never going to get that beat, well-worn, hard life look that the vintage Perfecto has. I could buy vintage and pretend I've lived a life of jumping...

    Opinions regarding Schott Vintaged Perfecto Jacket 618V1?

    I don't usually like the idea of "relicing." However, I do like the idea of a nice, vintage jacket. I do think it's beautiful.

    Opinions regarding Schott Vintaged Perfecto Jacket 618V1?

    Hi. This one is on the Schott site and goes for $900. What are your opinions regarding this jacket? It's tempting to me because I can get an old looking, but new leather motorcycle jacket that's broken in right out of the box. What do you think of it?

    Are heavy jackets bad for the back?

    Hi. I wonder if heavy leather jackets are bad for those with back conditions. I own a Fox Creek Motorcycle jacket Classic II and it must weigh at least 7 pounds. Could these very heavy jackets be dangerous for those with bad backs?

    Schott 641 or 141?

    Anthony, if your 38 fits, it would be more valuable to me to share YOUR measurements. In other words, how tall are you, your waist size, chest size, sleeve length, etc. The reason I ask, I'm considering a 641 40, and I'd like to know how I compare to you.

    Schott 641 or 141?

    You're right, Faster, I have noticed the cafe racer styles in Schott have seemed very short, almost belly button length.

    Schott 641 or 141?

    Hi, I'm looking to buy a beautiful, classic jacket with a one piece back and great leather and am torn between the Schott 641 and the 141. I know the 641 has a trimmer fit, but am worried it won't be comfortable. Perhaps the trim fit is meant for biker riders, not those who want a jacket to...

    What do you think is the best looking way to wear the Perfecto style lapel and collar

    Hi, I'm talking about the Marlon Brando style jacket he wore in The Wild Ones. The way I see it, there are four ways to wear the lapels and collar: 1. Lapels and collar down. 2. Lapels down, collar up around the neck. 3. Jacket zipped up with the lapels inside under the zipper, collar...

    Thoughts on Schott 654 lightweight cafe racer?

    Thanks mrc, I'm also looking at the 660. I'm not sure about the 28" length; how that would compare to the length on the 641. You say the 660 is more British? I don't know, maybe I should just go with the 641 and be done with it. it also is a vintage style on a vintage last and it's got...

    Thoughts on Schott 654 lightweight cafe racer?

    Hi, since I am not a motorcycle rider I am looking for a more lightweight and comfortable version of the Cafe Racer motorcycle jacket. I love the British heritage of this jacket and the culture of these early '60's rockers who would strip down their bikes and race from cafe to cafe on the...

    YES, it's TRUE! the SCHOTT 641 STEERHiDE REViEWED! with a picture!

    I'm sorry, I meant Schott 654, not 541. This jacket looks a lot like the 641, but is described as a "lightweight racer."
