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

[kiya]

Damn, both look great.

Anyone know how many SE items are only sold in store? Didn’t see the Eric online. Can you buy over email? I sent an inquiry about the Raymond to SE before looking anywhere else, but If I knew they had an Eric I probably would have just tried to buy that.

There is quite a bit of product which we release in-store only and if anything is left we put it online. Our 5 brick and mortar locations are very important to us, so while we try to order enough product so it makes it online, some things sell out too quickly in-store to make it online. Most times though we have enough to photograph and put online.

Thanks guys - ended up with the Leon, which I will wear with a popped collar whenever I’m around @LA Guy

@kiya what’s the dying process? When I got back home after handling the jacket I washed my hands and noticed some color transfer...or that could have been just dirt from the jobsite. At any rate, it seems they fade fast, which is kind of cool.

Most of Fine Creek's jackets are tea-core dyed, it's the denim equivalent of being rope dyed. Only the outer membrane of the leather is dyed, and it's done very carefully so the leather has a deep shade when new but ages quickly once worn.

Well I did walk away with another pair of jeans and that corduroy Stevenson shirt, which is probably the best western shirt ever made.

Congrats, you also just got one of the nicest snap buttoned shirts being made. The fabric and stitch quality on those Stevenson shirts is unbelievable.

I love Kiya. I messaged him on reddit years ago about some stupid **** and he actually took the time to reply to me. I was probably asking him about the crease patterns on his jeans or something. What a guy.

I dream of the day I have the honor of buying a leather jacket from his store. I would likely settle for a pair of jeans but you've got to dream big.

UC that's been around the block, fw01.

I lied, more pictures. This time with some exciting zipper action.

Really dig the styling on this new Stoffa campaign. Features Sam Hine at GQ (also dig Sam Hine's personal style)

Savas also just released a new MTO leather Western shirt jacket.

The Lowry Shirt

Be that badass that you are, and pull on this tough as nails, but smooth as butter over shirt. Made of veg-tanned kangaroo leather, the durability is bar none and will take on a life of its own as you wear it. This natural tanning process begins with a blank canvas of leather that will start to...

Heeerrrreee we go:

FCL Leon

FCL Eric

Looks great. I prefer the Leon for your purposes.

How's the lining on these FCLs? It's quilted, right? What kind of materials are used? Is the lining super warm? I think I prefer regular cotton or satin lining so the jacket doesn't get too warm.

The Eric is deceptively nice. Simple but really well executed. I think you’d wear it well.

Thanks. I can always check out the Valstar Clint when it is on the rack next Fall and decide then.

The lining is quilted, except in the arms. TBH I prefer a thinner lining but it's not too hot, at least for San Francisco.

I feel like the Leon looks better off the bat but the Eric is incredible broken in

I see. Well that's somewhat of a dealbreaker for me I am afraid. I am pretty warm in general so a quilted leather would be less usable for me. Too bad, since I had the Leon on my interest list. And afaik, all FCL leathers are quilted in this way.

Btw, what do you think of the Stevenson Cody shirt? You got the one in charcoal corduroy right? I've been eyeing it myself for a while. How's the fabric? Warm and heavy?

I wear pretty warm too, and I’d say the jacket is OK for San Francisco summers up to 80F. How hot are your summers?

The Stevenson Cody is a work of art. Because of the way the points curve, I’d describe it as an evil version of the western shirt, like something Nick Cave would wear. A hint of a sleaze vibe, which I like. It doesn’t wear cool, but it isn’t warm at all. Relatively thin for corduroy.

Our summers vary a lot, but I would say that they usually stay in the 80F region as well. I would however never wear a leather jacket of any kind jacket in those temps. I would literally be drenched in sweat.

Not to sound elitist, but I meant wearing it while riding a motorcycle. If I was just walking around, I probably wouldn’t wear it in 80F either.

Although sweaty leather dude is attractive in some circles. Just sayin.
