Sup everyone, for starting off I need help deciding on which leather jacket I should buy, or if I should even buy any of these jackets. I have about 500ish bucks for the jacket.

Both jackets are made by the same company, in Italy, from Italian nappa leather.

Jacket 1


or

Jacket 2



Or should I not buy either of these jackets? Any suggestions for a good leather jacket? I'm pretty young but I'm 6'1 150 lbs and growing, I'm quite skinny, not much muscle. Any input is appreciated.


Also one last thing, any recommendations on first time loafers?

I'm looking for a flat loafer or something similar to this (without the crepe soul) or in this color.


Or something like these APC loafers.

I have a budget of 500 bucks for the loafers too.

Thanks for helping me out.

Don't buy loafers. Put that money toward a better leather jacket.
