Hot or not? How do you suspect the leather would feel?
who makes this / how much?

dislike the cut, and they need a different model. For some reason I always see cafe racers in stock photos and they've put the model into a jacket one size too large, so the sleeves begin to well on the hands and the whole thing loses it's shape. Rider's jackets are to accentuate the torso - if you have a good drop between chest to waist, you'll look like superman, and if you're just skinny, you will look skinny, tall and cool. That guy in the pics looks none of the above.
I own the Fight Club jacket from Soul Revolver. The leather is indeed very thin and of average quality. On the other hand I believe Soul Revolver makes the exact same models in a heavy duty leather specifically for motorcycle riding (more expensive of course).
he probably couldn't, but the sleeves are too long, and they are a bit wide. Granted, the flimsy leather accentuates it more... If the fit is attractive though, one could go for Epaulet's Schott jacket, it's not much more and fits just like that. The leather is really thick full grain calf as well, so it has a totally different air of quality.
Ahh an actual owner, can you please give me a description of how the leather feels to the touch? I do want thin since I want it to drape and not look bulky or thick but I want it to feel somewhat soft. How is the quality of the jacket overall? Are you satisfied?
The leather feels quite thin and smooth to the touch, once you break it in, it obviously takes on more character. It fits the way you would expect it to, it's not bulky at all and is definitely a fashion jacket and not a practical jacket as far as leather jackets goes.
