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

[FrankCowperwood]

For reference, I put pool noodles and bendable wire in the sleeves and left the arms bent at this angle for weeks at a time over the summer. I'd straighten and re-bend every couple of days. The ridiculousness is not lost on me.

You are making us all so proud!

@hoodog that does look really good. You've got comfortable range of movement in it and the sleeves are a good length when you raise your arms etc? If yes, then, I don't see you getting a much more precise fit than that!

Pretty comfortable range of movement for it being new FQHH, I guess. Good length when raising arms? Above the head or what? What length should good length be? So many questions...

Another Aero board racer for ya. This one in brown steer cxl. This is my first leather jacket and did some second guessing, but have to say it surpassed my expectations. The steer is thick but you can feel it begin to soften within 15 minutes of wear. It has a bit more caramel and less chocolate than the brown fqhh counterpart. plan on wearing this as much as the weather will give me an excuse.

@dhoff10 nice tall collar on that one.

@hoodog my question is basically is it comfortable to move in and do a range of common things in? If o then ?!

How do lewis leathers lightnings/cyclones fit in terms of the armholes? I only have the old junya vanson dr to compare, which fits nicely except those tight ass armholes

There's really only one individual qualified to comment on the Lancer but since you used the colonial, "dr", I'm afraid you may have made the "pay no mind" list.

My Lewis has tight armholes and slim sleeves yeah. This is the Europa model, but likely same basic cut as the others.
