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

[JustinW]

Just wanted to wear them one more time before putting them away for the long hot summer.

Spoiler: I can’t wait for winter!

Paid the deposit on my addict. Can't wait!!!❤

How long does it take? Did the pandemic increase or decrease wait times?

3 months I believe. No rush on my end. It'll be arriving right in time to be worn again haha

Hahaha I had an S2000 for 12 years (RIP 2002 New Formula Red). Guess that explains the DR now. I run into issues myself with the wife having preset ideas of what articles of clothing signal. My experience has been mostly successful in shifting those ideals by acclimatizing her to the ways those preset ideas can be inaccurate. YMMV, of course.

She still won't let me buy a windowpane sport coat, however. But I'm dying on the DR hill.

I'm a Rotary owner in recovery. Had many a good time playing with my S2000 friends.

Started watching Upload on amazon during quarantine. The female main character sporting some nice leathers. A sharp shearling in one episode and an interesting DR in another. She looks pretty good in both IMO. She is wearing that DR in LA in the summer...that happens all the time right?

@dieworkwear I'm still undecided on her laces. l'll get back to you guys on that one.

Well, when you are hot you can wear clothes oversized, undersized, or nothing at all and you still look good.

Another former New Formula Red S2000 owner here. AP2 for me, bought new in 2005 and drove as my commuter first for 4 years, then for 5 more years in my traveling dental sales job. I sold it to my next door neighbor for a good price when I moved to the Caribbean with the deal being every time I come home I get to drive it. So I do, and it still feels like "my" car when I get in it.

It's her toy car so it doesn't get a lot of miles on it anymore, but she maintains it well.

It appears these are available.

Just got my Addict AD-01 delivered this morning! My first proper leather jacket and the horsehide feels substantial but its not particularly heavy. Definitely quite stiff. Snapped up a few pics below!

Based on first impressions, I’m quite pleased with it. Curious to hear any feedback on fit?

Looks great to me. Some people might tell you that the sleeves could be a touch longer (I think they're fine), and Derek will tell you to wear it open, of course.

The pics are from pretty close but it looks like it fits great! Open is especially good. Wear in good health!

Thanks, guys! Can’t wait to put some real wear on it but for now it’ll have to be limited to my Zoom meetings.

Very nice. I like the sleeves that length as it is not a motorcycle jacket.

Now, go throw yourself down some stairs and break that bad boy in.
