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

[Patek]

My only advice is to also wear pants.

That takes the fun out of it.

This is sort of why it's the only brand we carry where we remind clients that if the jacket sells out if may never be made again.

Kinda confusing to me why a brand would decided not to produce what seems to be one of their most popular jackets.

Fine Creek seem like guys who love making stuff more than they love the money. You might as well ask why they don't outsource their labour and scale up, or why they don't make their jackets without epaulets instead of making them with epaulets and then cutting them off.

I think this is a commonality among a lot of smaller Japanese brands who are doing it more as a passion project than purely just profit. I find it rather refreshing actually.

stuck between two jackets -- TFH Delraiser and Buco J-24.

Well, technically 3 -- I haven't been able to find a FCL Leon the Nostar to try on, but I am stuck between those 3.

Any and all opinions welcome please!

I think they look close enough that it depends on whether you want epaulets or not.

Anyone here try the natural Epaulet / Aero jacket?

The cafe racer seems interesting and it is something different for sure. I'm afraid one of my dogs will mistake it for rawhide and eat it.

Why not order it through Thurston Bros?Those are just standard Aero models and I’m sure you could get unfinished HH if you asked. More customization options as well as a test fit jacket and a track record with leather jacket fitting and support.

Oh no, I'm not looking to order one. Just wondering if anyone had as I would like to see pictures of how they age. I'm leather jacketed out for now as I'm pretty happy with what I have and still waiting on my last order to come in.
