Alright all the best.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback positive or critical. I truly appreciate the engagement. I know not every jacket or fit will please every eye, and that’s totally fine. But I also think it’s important to remember: people join this forum to share their journey, ask questions, and hopefully...

Appreciate the input. 1.5 cm might sound small on paper, but in a tailored leather jacket, even subtle changes can have a big visual impact especially when combined with other adjustments.

It’s not a strategy, mate just a reminder that it’s all optional. If my videos or posts somehow bother you, feel free to skip them no hard feelings. I’m sure someone out there will find it helpful, and that’s good enough for me. ✌️

Thank you! Really appreciate your thoughtful words. Exactly I shared the journey because I know how tricky sizing can be with Schott jackets, especially with models like the 519. In the end, I tailored it for my preferences and I'm happy with the result. Glad to hear you enjoyed the content too!

Thanks a lot really appreciate the honest input and the kind words! Yeah, the 519 does run a bit longer in the back, especially with the double zip design. I totally see where you’re coming from. That said, I’ve really grown to like how it wears especially after the tailoring. It’s not...

Thanks for your honest feedback I appreciate you taking the time. I actually bought the 519 for a very fair price and wouldn’t be able to find it again in that condition and size for anything close to what I paid. Selling was an option I considered, but I ultimately decided to keep it because...

Thanks a lot, really appreciate the kind words and support! Here's the info you asked for: Alterations: Shortened the sleeves Brought the shoulders in slightly Tightened the chest by about 1.5 cm (No changes to the back length – I wanted to keep that stock.) Price: Around 230€ total for...

Thanks for your thoughts! I totally get where you're coming from – but in this case, it actually worked out really well after the small alteration. Here’s the update if you’re curious: I'm genuinely happy with it now and glad I didn’t sell it.

Hahaha of course not! I kept the tags on at first because I was considering selling it if it didn’t work out. But after getting it tailored and finally being happy with the fit, the tags are off now! ✂️

Hey, thanks for your input! Actually, it was definitely worth it for me – I had it professionally tailored and the result turned out great! Here’s the update if you’re curious: Sometimes it’s worth giving a great jacket a second chance instead of selling it.

Hi! Thanks for your question. Yes, the 626 is noticeably lighter compared to the 118, 519, 141 or the 689H. The leather is thinner, the lining is lighter, and overall it's much more comfortable for spring and mild summer evenings. It still offers some warmth, but it's definitely less bulky and...

Thanks for your perspective — I’ll definitely share an updated video once the jacket comes back from the tailor. I’m genuinely curious myself to see how the changes affect the fit. Since most of my jackets in size L fit very well, I assumed the same would apply here. Turns out the 519 fits...

Appreciate the feedback — and no worries, the jacket's already with a tailor getting those sleeves and the body cleaned up. I’m not trying to be an influencer, just a guy who loves leather jackets and wants to share real-world fit pics to help others out. Funny how even that can spark...

I appreciate the feedback! I see what you mean about the first few minutes – I wanted to highlight the details of the jacket, but I get that it might be too much for some viewers. I’ll definitely keep that in mind for future videos and focus more on spoken commentary. As for the length, I made...
