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

[sinnedk]

Thanks! Looks a lot like what I think I've seen elsewhere...it's a leather that stays looking new for a pretty long time!

Which probably means my Hermosa Beach-living ass would have it start looking the way I like sometime in 2030 or so.

By the way, there's a steal on that jacket in a 38 over on Grailed right now. Seller seems like a nice guy.

Well the arms have some nice folding to them, body is not too creased up which i don't mind, the jacket looks like it has decent wear on me, but laying flat looks much cleaner.

Also damn $775 is a bonkers steal price, these IH dont show up on 2nd market much.

The Full Count collabs are basically the regular jackets with VERY minor tweaks (lining color, zipper config, etc.), slightly different leather treatments or colors, and an extra $500 price tag

Do you still wear your addict the most out of your leathers?

I sold the rest of my leathers (CCP, Layer-0, Margiela, Rick) and only wear my two Addict leathers now. I want to add a suede one, though

 

[Benesyed]

Yeah as much as I like ccp and those dudes I think the three I'm most likely to actually wear are mmm 5 zip, Rick stooges, or addict 01

I just dont wanna drop 5k on a leather jacket that may not fit right

I love my CCP Scarstitch and other jackets of that ilk - the cutting and construction is amazing, and the materials are truly special, but truth be told, I wear, in no particular order, my Joe McCoys unlined roughout Type 3 (which is great to layer with, and you can wear it indoors easily, if you you just take off your vest), my Schott x 3Sixteen Roughout collaboration, and an Aero 30s half belt. Those are just so tough, with all the details practical, and with that translate into any number of styles.

Sandro shearling double rider came in. It's maybe a touch snug in the shoulders, but not uncomfortably so. All in all I'm happy with the fit, it's a huge upgrade over the beat up and massively oversized bomber I'd been wearing for winter. It's super cozy and warm, which is exactly what I wanted because winter up here is brutal.

Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately unsurprising.

My experience with selling clothes (which is 1/10th the experience of many of y'all) has been similar to my experience managing another service business. 2% of the customers take up 50% of my time and cause 75% of my headaches. The more I sell stuff the more I understand why so many veteran secondhand sellers are brusque and have airtight, exception-free policies on everything. So much easier than the alternative.

maybe i've been very fortunate, but i've sold a lot here/ebay/grilled over the years and this is actually the first time something like this has happened. what's more upsetting is that the sf member asked to put it up on ebay, so i did it as a favor, not thinking twice about him using ebay as his return policy.

anyways if anyone is interested in valstar clint size small hmu. i will post once the return arrives...

I guess the request to list it on eBay was the red flag.

Damn, and for that jacket, too. That's too bad. I'm sure you'll find takers for it on here...that's one of the best jackets to come through these parts in a while. I'd be hitting you up but for the fact I've got two tobacco-suede jackets that I already don't wear as much as I should.

I've been looking for a Clint for a while, but I probably need a medium. Wasn't sure of the sizing so I passed on the most recent preorders, but I've been having second thoughts ever since.
