    I want a Schott 641 or 141 but I need help finding the right size.

    Coud be to the year of the coats mentioned...the patterns have changed some over the years for some Schott models. Also if the measurements are of used jackets all bets are off considering who did the measuring, how it was measured, how much the jacket was worn and how it was treated.

    I want a Schott 641 or 141 but I need help finding the right size.

    In the past I owned a 141. For a 36" chest you're probably going to want to size down to a 34, if they make it in that sized. I've never owned one but my understanding is the 641 is true to size. Editing to add that on their website there is a "compare similar styles" too on the product...

    Watching A Christmas Story the other day, and like I do EVERY time I watch it I asked myself "Where the hell can I find a coat like the one Scut Farkus wears????" I'm pretty confident someone here can point me in a direction...found a few but usually belted, too long, or both. In a search his...

    A cheaper alternative to these leather pants?

    These are sheepskin as well but appear to be a bit more substantial, and cost way less. They also come in a few different cuts. https://straighttohellapparel.com/product/skinny-james-skinny-fit-leather-pants/

    Legendary USA Black Stallion is Back

    Definitely seems like some sort of falling out. They've done their best to bury the Schott line on their site. I find that instagram post to be kinda gross.

    Biker jacket

    A old friend of mine is a Ramones fanatic/collector and actually owns one of Dee Dee's leather jackets. He was pals with Johnny, and was the source of many of the B-movie horror shirts he could be seen wearing in their later days. My pal still makes a living selling that stuff.

    New Schott 118 - Leather Dye Transfer Issue

    Years ago I purchased a leather pea coat from Schott in the same naked cowhide and had the same issue. I'm aware that this hide is prone to that, but in my case it was bleeding much more than I thought it should. I contacted them right away and they exchanged it no questions asked. The...

    Schott 141 vs Vanson Comet: size and cut/fit

    I've had both of these jackets. They are very different. The Vanson is a much more trim fitting coat, mine is in the older comp weight leather, it is like a suit of armor. It's probably my favorite coat ever. The schott is much more wearable than the vanson. For me I size down in that style...
