    Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

    Thank you! I haven’t handled it but sheep is their speciality, there’s a video where the owner explains how he had to work with a tannery to get sheepskin like the one in the old british jackets and that not many tanneries work with sheepskin (as opposed to lamb or shearling), and he always...

    Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

    My Falcon Garments is made out of the old calf that TOJ used to use, which was known for being thick/heavy and definitely not pliable. I went for that because the standard FG calf seemed more matte in pics and I prefer the more glossy stuff (in black jackets at least), and I was into heavy...

    Also, a note for anyone within the EU interested in Addict, FCL, LL, Y2 and other cool brands: the german? based stuf-f.com has really good prices. They have the Addict above for basically the same price as buying from Japan (what I did) plus import duties, but I presume better return policies...

    Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

    Ok guys so I’ll hopefully put an end to the “collared black moto” nonsense after this post. I had placed an order for an Aero Premier Highwayman, but then got the cold feet; as I already said, I thought I’d end up with a beautiful jacket that wouldn’t fit me the way I wanted. So I emailed Aero...

    Yeah with current (and forthcoming) JMM prices it’s better to pick up a cheaper hobby like luxury swiss-made mechanical watches, classic sports cars or even yatches.

    To be honest I haven’t asked but I did read in Fedora Lounge that they no longer offer that option.

    I’m happy with my 5 JMM collection but could realistically bring it down to 4 and be equally happy but not looking forward to selling/buying second hand, always makes me nervous.

    I just realised I might have sounded somewhat dismissive of Lewis Leathers, and that was definitely not my intention. The mere existence of these "copycats" are a testament of the great stuff they've made. It's just that I think they're way off base with their decision to not allow to remove...

    At some point they did, yes, but the option was removed from the website and the last thing I’ve read is that they won’t remove it.

    Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

    The irony: I make jackets -> some brands copy them -> I force the logo even for custom orders -> people can’t stand the logo -> they buy the copies (which might be better made than the originals, on top of that). It’s an example of a terrible business decision IMO. On the one hand I undestand...

    He has both, got the Addict in Japan while on tour. The LL jackets he has have the logo, or at least some. And if some don’t then it must be due to his celeb status because they won’t remove it for average joes (deal breaker for me and many others).

    38, I wear leather jackets over just a t-shirt most of the times or at most a thin merino knit.

    Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

    A small japanese brand I’m following allows for all kinds of customisations (designs too, not just measurements) and most of the jackets look great, but there’s not many fit pics so unsure about the patterns. Some dude ordered a 5zip clone. Looks off as expected but their standard models look good.

    Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

    It’s weird because I like most of the AD-01 fits I’ve seen (although many are from the brand owner, who is 6 feet tall) but there’s a few like the one above where it looks too long. In that one however it feels kinda too big in general. I mean, it’s not that long (it’s not like it’s covering his...

    Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

    @sinnedk that’s a great collection, I might have more jackets than you but those 2 CCP must cost more than my 9 jackets! Actually the Aero is the first one over $1k. Today I have the feeling I’ve made a big mistake ordering the Aero… I might ask to get the order cancelled if that’s even...

    That being said, I’d still like to try a pair of Enzos and Ascaris. Pretty sure I’ll look stupid in both, but still.

    Speaking of 5zips, what are the differences between the MM6 version and the mainline one? I’d still want a 5zip some day, but my SO would file for divorce, although we’re not married. I think she would marry me only to get a divorce because of how pissed she’d be if I get another jacket.

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    It’s not just the price hikes etc. IMO On my case the most “out there” frames don’t really fit me (neither my style nor my face as they’re usually too big), and there’s so many reinterpretations of a classic model I can own (this includes colourways). E.g. the Shibusawa, it looks nice but not...

    ^ On that note, I recently skimmed through many of the older pages and did notice that a bunch of people stopped adding content regularly. I assumed in most cases the interest died down. It's kinda happening to me at the moment. *older not other
