Hey all -- I'm looking for a new leather jacket and was hoping the collective good taste of this community could give me some leads and brands to explore.  I'm generally fond of G-Star, but their current line up isn't doing it for me.  I like Rick Owens quite a bit but can't quite stomach $3k for a jacket.  $1k is as high as I'll likely go.

 

These reference images are fakes/knock-offs, but I like how they look and haven't found their real-brand equivalent yet.  I actually bought the fake G-Star last spring (FAIL, SHAME, I know) strictly because I liked how it looked.  People everywhere ask me "where'd you get that jacket?!".

 

In general I like detail work, but not overly crazy with 20 zippers everywhere.  I realize this high-collar moto is somewhat generic nowadays, but I haven't seen a lot with the kind of detail work I like.

 

(Fakes, but reference for styles / details that I like)

Fake D&G Jacket
Fake G-Star

 

I'm going to just hit some stores tomorrow -- the usual suspects like Diesel, G-Star -- but am hoping to narrow some options down first, as I'm going out of town this weekend and want to save time!

 

Thanks all...
