Nice German shorty. If going to the War and Peace show a few of these turn up but are often the long leather coats cut off at the waist and converted. It can look good if done well but they are usually button ups.
Nice Most old fringed Lewis's I have come across have had the hassles cut off.

You'll imagine my surprise when I joined the forum this weekend and discovered some pictures of my Schott Hand Oiled Perfecto on this thread. Honored to have made it into someone's "cool jacket" category. I'll agree it is a touch long maybe, but I'm still relatively tall for the frame (5'11" and 145 lbs), so I hope it doesn't look too strange on me with my young person's low cut jeans Sorry for the diversion, I know this thread is for other people's jackets.

I think it looks fantastic. Leather looks great.

Thanks! My first "real" leather jacket, bought it almost on impulse when it was 50% off during a winter sale. One of those lucky finds that I bought when I probably didn't know enough to make a great decision, but still love today.

Literally a breathtaking jacket. One of the nicest I've ever seen and I'm happy to say that it fits you just as nicely. Maybe a bit longer than the 613/618 but it still sits right around your belt if I'm seeing this right, just where it should be. 10/10 jacket.

Found these griz jackets on Etsy

As a rule I've never been a fan of the fringing (though I have considered buying one on the cheap if it came up and just cutting off the offending trim), but I'm still kicking myself for not spending £200 on a Lewis Pathfinder back in 2002, or evne the then-new price of £400, comparec to what they go for now.... I had a vague approximation that was close enough for show-use, but I'll always want to put together a screen-accurate Tim Curry jacket.

Cutting off the fringing is fine if you get a jacket cheap, but needs to be 'undercut' under the top seam if that makes sense as there is always some smart ars* who will tell you your jacket was originally fringed. Sometimes we can just do without experts.

I know what you mean. Wouldn't bother me, though - if I did that it'd be because I'd saved a couple of hundred on it. That sort of thing tends to shut up that type of expert.

^^^eeek! what is this an ad for High/Large?
If they were to do the original Lee 101 style, I might be in.

I've no clue what that is, I stumbled upon those photos and thought the jackets look really cool!

Those High Large jackets are very nice. I like that they seem to specialize in leather versions of jean jackets.

Yeah, sure you have. Now leave.

Wasn't this same account banned already? Obviously not...

It does look like our new member should perhaps look into a vendor account given...
