For new leather jackets, I really like the Temple of Jawnz Double Rider at the moment.

If anyone has the newest issue of HUGE, there is a great couple of photos towards the end, of vintage bikers. There's one really striking picture of a guy standng over his bike taking a break, got his gloves tucked into the epaulet of his perfecto while he drinks a beer. Really slim, way broken-in perfecto, slim selvedge jeans, engineer boots, vintage bikes, perfect.

It will cost a fair bit but I think I may be able to trade in my Vanson jacket which has never really fit me how I wanted. This fits me ridiculously well and looks awesome. Can anyone talk me out of it?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=263602_263622 I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about this jacket? i picked it up the other day bc it was pretty cheap and i had been looking for a leather jacket (poor college student) it is the same one as in the listing (not my listing) but i can't find it anywhere else, it is a Levi's Red Tab leather jacket and didn't know if it was fake or something
