    Field Leathers

    My point still stands, I‘m sorry you are so emotionally aggrevated about this all, I hope you get your jacket soon and can still enjoy it.

    Field Leathers

    My point is and still stands that order number does not equal order of production and that production order is subject to other circumstances. I‘m not even saying he rightfully finished that other order before yours because I don‘t have insight in his production process but neither do you. If...

    Order number means order number, not production number. Productions depends on availability of materials etc, ofcourse he would finish a later order if he doesnt have the necessary hardware and leather to finish the previous one.

    Questions about a thrifted 50s (?) 613HH Perfecto I picked up a few weeks back.

    Cool find. New zipper installed by a professional who doesnt botcher the jacket in the process should run at around 150 USD, you will get more than that re-selling, little you can do wrong here.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    The way that size 36 fits you is spot on my definition of a perfect cross zip fit, that narrow waist and the wide shoulders look amazing. Perfect jacket.

    Talk me into or out of this silly jacket? (Schott sportswear leather)

    I dont think I could pull it off, but if you think you can and it fits your general clothing in style, go for it

    New Aero Bootlegger. Help with next order

    If you insist on going through with the purchase rather than wear the jacket you just received for a moment, you are a grown man after all, I‘ll give you more concrete advice on your points raised: Sleeve length is matter of personal preference, I think yours on this Bootlegger is perfect, I...

    New Aero Bootlegger. Help with next order

    Wear your new jacket for a while to be able to do an educated decision about your future jacket. Rush things and you end up with multiple jackets that in hindsight you wouldve ordered differently.

    Pawnshop Langlitz find

    It is pebbly goatskin and by the pictures it is almost dark brown, not the super shiny black hide the fetish boys are after. Besides, patina tells me this was worn on a bike. I would wear this jacket with no worry and what an absolute find and steal at this price point. It would be at least 1500...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Spent my Saturday wearing these two JL beauties. Barneveld Remix in Petrol Teacore Steerhide and M-200 in 5 oz dark brown steerhide. Both of these jackets rank among my heaviest but at least the Barneveld Remix is starting to give up and break in. I treated it with Lexol a short while ago, it...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Time for a new Vanson then, it is. Maybe a Size 38 Dakota? My Size 40 is mostly worn by my larger brother these days..

    Aero Premiere 1930s Half Belt Russet Badalassi- SQUEAKING

    Agree. This is the first time I hear this and no other jacket of mine sounds like this; I couldn‘t stand that.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Buying an Aero again after having experienced the wearing comfort of a JL is no less than masochistic. Not having to wear a 6 lbs jacket on your neck is a relevation.

    Fit check: 25" length vs 26" length on a 6'2" guy.

    I like the look of the first two shorter ones better.
