How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Langlitz Columbia brown goat on the way. Stated 28.5” back length, obv too long on paper but we shall see. It may be the rear dip. My “no more jackets” plan has completely imploded.

Leather pants are tricky... you really have to pull off the whole attitude without any apologies, like Lux

Had a pair years ago that I picked up for a tenner in Camden market around 2003ish. Fine for running round the house shirtless pretending I was Iggy Pop, but limited applications otherwise. I think I only ever really wore them out as part of a costume. The right pair are great for motorcycle usage and/or heavy rainwear, though I found them prone to getting rather on the over-hot side indoors, as memory serves.

What a cool find Nick! And you should be just fine with the length on that one, probably fits closer to a 26“ back length when you take the kidney panel into account.

Even though I firmly believe the words leather and pants should never be paired….I have to admit those look really cool! Are they lined? Must be damn near ****** proof!

Your’s look cool but can you wear them in summer? I imagine they’d stick to you like cellophane. The say it might hit 42c in the UK next week, egad!

I'm very fond of rough out leather- for boots, jacket, belt- there are also pants- 5 pocket jeans style.

Is anyone rocking such pants?

I'd say @Monitor, but he hates roughout... these look pretty alright though. How is the smooth side against the skin though? How do you pry yourself out of these?

That slimmer fit would certainly be a challenge but I think they look pretty nice, you’d likely cook in those though.

I reckon, these are suede, not roughout, thus thinner. But probably still quite warm.
More for the colder months.

I had a heavy, brown pair in suede, 5 pocket setup, that I wore a couple of winters. Just barely felt like leather and nobody ever noticed they weren't textile. I got bored with them though as I'm not a fan of suede and switched to regular leather since but they're really nice to wear during those cold, winter months. Very warm and comfortable... Best part is, I would just toss them in the washing machine every once in a while to clean them up.

Thinking about it now, I kind of miss them but I sold 'em to some biker guy who really needed a pair of good leather pants for riding. This is his bike. He said it's his only mean of transportation whole year, winter or summer. Certainly looks like it...

Schott 626VN from Vinted coming at me...

I've seen motorcycle trews done in roughout quite recently. I can seem them appealing to anyone who wants the characteristics of leather but with a more toned down look. On a practical level, what would concern me would be that you lose the 'wipe clean' practicality of leather with the smooth side out, and if they do get a stain / dirt, you're into an expensive cleaning bill.

So I was 100% sure I wouldn't be getting these but apparently I was 100% wrong. On the way...

Very cool, love the metal accents. Remind me of John Leguizamo in the Romeo and Juliet movie as Tybalt

@Leigh H has some suede or roughout pants that work very well for him

 

[Craig from Craigslist]

This black leather Lee 101-J just arrived this morning. The graininess, the blanket lining, the corduroy collar! Such a nice jacket that it's almost frustrating Lee hasn't made more of these.

TOO LONG FOR A TRUCKER STYLE JACKET. It’s not a total abomination with 26 inches or something but look at how it extends past his belt. Juck!
Plus I just think it looks a bit boring and uninspired. Meh.

 

[handymike]

For this style (and availability everywhere) $1150 is way too much. For under $100 I’m just as happy with my Gap version.
