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

[Lem87]

Yikes, glad to hear you recovered from something more advanced than stage 2. I think his explanation has to do with cutting through the groin and creamaster as I read in my post-op report. I have what feels like a hard band if flesh between my groin and the left side of my scrotum. Probably related to the surgery. Anyways I had a seminoma removed so I go to the oncologist in 2 weeks to determine if I need further treatment because the tumor, it turns out, got a full year to mature to what it became.

Is it just like sized down 1-2 or would a 44 end up being too long in the body and sleeves?

Yea the sizing is a bit off, a 38 is a 40 and a 42 is a 44, so on, at least seems like @eckblk and I have that experience with the Leon

Hmm, my video doesn’t seem to work.

Oh well, here’s a still. I’m 6’0 180 lbs and wear a 40, but the Edward is a tad larger than the Leon. I’d suggest trying on and/or choosing a place that takes exchanges.

Actually each Fine Creek Leather jacket is made by only 3 guys in a factory that's about 600 square feet in the center of Tokyo! One of those three guys is Yoshi, the designer and owner of the brand.

That is great to know; I didn't realize that. I got my FCL Leon Custom from your fine and friendly Portland store. Apex level leather jacket.

**** I would need a 44. 5'10, 181.

Could be, depending on your build. I have a 44 and am 190. I sized up for the shoulder width. I wear a hoodie underneath it sometimes. Spent 5 days in Berlin in January walking around like that and could zip it up comfortably and was quite happy. The 46 was too big.

I need to use my 5 zip more.

What’s with the aero hate round here?

 

[d4nimal]

I didn't notice any Aero hate, but I might have missed it. If anything, I think some people tend to equate Aero w/ the more boxy/roomy fits that seem to be preferred in other corners of the internet. That Aero premier highwayman I thought was a knockout.

Last image dump of the FCL, promise. I just love this ******* jacket so much.


Took my daughter to the mall because she loves free balloons.

 

[FrankCowperwood]

Looks fun! And jacket looks really great!

 

[hoodog]

Great jacket! But I think it looks a bit too big and a bit too small at the same time. I can't really say why though... Maybe it's the size of the body compared to the length of the sleeves?

I haven't really noticed any hate maybe a lack of love .....

He's got enough room in the body to layer over, which doesn't give you the same lean hug, but I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing.

@Vickt you can dump a hot load of FCL here all day every day, honestly.

 

[sinnedk]

@Vickt are there snaps that hold down the collar on the FCL Edward you got?

 

[rnguy001]

^from some of the pictures you can see snaps that hold down the lapel, but not sure you meant the actual collar?
