On the subject of Addict. I stumbled on maybe my best find ever. Addict AD-01 in a charity shop, blue horsehide.

I won't tell you what I paid but I wondered what you guys thought of the fit? I'm between a 40 and 38, this is 38.

As an aside, it's actually signed by the Artic Monkeys (seems to be) and Alex Turner had one the same, so I'm wondering...Anyone who knows about memorabilia give me a shout! Thanks bc

Sounds like I need to visit charity shops more often!
Congrats on a very cool jacket!

Sadly none, its 90 degrees here.... :(

But next week the temps will be seasonal in the 50/60s, which means the new acquisition will make its inaugural appearance. :)

Nice jacket. Love the color. Suits your slim physique.

Thanks mate - it's the horsehide! Honestly I think it might be his jacket, see the pics, it was bought in Swiss Cottage, London.
I think you might be right in this, it does look like Alex Turner’s actual jacket. There’s plenty of pics of him with one that looks exactly like that one.
You may have hit jackpot there, plenty of Artic Monkey’s fans that would pay big bucks for that one.

I want to know what charity shops you go to now! Damn! What a find! These jackets looks so good, in fact better than the originals LL, but are too pricey...

It’s a snug fit but it looks good.

I agree they are very overpriced new. i may end up keeping it due to it being such a beautiful leather. I used to work by Lewis leathers in soho and I must say I was never that impressed. I'm debating whether to sell this on account of the signatures,

Charity shops in posh London areas are big winners.

Thank you !

Yeah I think so too, the problem I have is no provenance - I can't prove it's his - though, as I think you can't buy in the UK other than online and the signatures it seems to add up.

I may just keep and wear it (I bought it not seeing the signatures) because it's a beaut and I'd struggle to get another.
