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

It's lavish, bitches

how many inches are you (the ones wearing RO in 54) in the chest?

been thinking of getting one but thinking its just too slim for me.

Depends on the season. Apparently last year things have gotten incredibly slim. So a 2013 sz 54 is equal to a 2010 sz 52 I believe. Or something like that.


My chest size is about 42-43ish.

At first I wasn't sold on the new treated lamb (LGI "Glass Ice") quality. It's fairly thin but in all honesty it has surprised me with how well it's breaking in. The leather catches light in a certain way but at the same time appears matte, and the natural creasing removes some of that subtle shine. I have a feeling the leather is going to look pretty cool once its thoroughly beat up.

Almost bought a Rick Geo today, too cropped and too tight in the waist. Bummed because the shoulders and top block fit perfectly. Typical weird Rick sizing

Great deal for a shorter 44 with broad shoulders:

matter of taste?...isnt it?

ok.i will be watching this post from now on...i will see if i learn some "taste"

Based on material cost alone, it's impossible to get a good leather jackets for $180. for example, I have a cafe racer from Aero which is made from a 1.3mm Horween cowhide. The retail on that hide is a couple of hundred dollars. The manufacturers get the hidoes or much cheaper but even so it would be impossible for them to wholesale the jacket for $180, much less retail it at that.

It looks like you are looking for a fairly traditional style in non-traditional leathers. The best way to do this is to get something custom made, from an outfit like Aero or Vanson.

thats correct, my ro stooges is a 52 and i wear normally a 48/50 (38/40us), fits me well!

hello folks,

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

how about these? 180$ obviously its not a big brand but worth every penny.

friendly advice, lurk a little bit, go through the thread and see what cool jackets are vs what you posted. And then start posting.

Damn that stooges on spence would have been perfect but I'm usually a 38/40 and it's a 50... Probably too small

Sigh... subtle way to promote/sell his products.

Well sizing is all over the place I'm same size and my stooges is a 52, message spence for measurements and go off that, tag is never really right

Sigh... subtle way to promote/sell his products.

I thought that as well, mods should delete the posts if that's the case

 

[Krish the Fish]

Good look @sinnedk I will do exactly that and we shall see. Thanks

CK has a mainline? that should tell how much i could not care about CK in general

i find it ridiculous that they decided to copy what RO/Isaac Sellman did in the last season with the alligator jacket and even that was ridiculous

believe it or not Rick didn't invent the entire fashion universe
