    Help me decide on my first and hopefully last leather jacket!

    If you are looking at a used Schott jacket, do not get set on a specific model number. Throughout the years, they changed the pattern of all of their jackets so many times that whatever you may be expecting from a certain model, might not apply. And I personally wouldn't recommend Horween. It's...

    Help with identifying Schott Perfecto 618 - legit???

    @r.jenkins0912 I wouldn't know for sure, I am not very informed on dating Schott jackets, mainly because they all look so much alike after the 1960's but I personally would agree with @LeatherHunter on this jacket being a 2010 onward piece. It's definitely not vintage, that much is certain...

    Help with identifying Schott Perfecto 618 - legit???

    It is 100% legit. Fake Perfectos look like utter sh*t. Although, it has been worn. Very lightly but you can see that the creases in the sleeves had begun setting in. But this would be nitpicking. This jacket is, for all intents and purposes, near-new.

    Lewis leathers Corsair Addict Clothes Ad-01 sizing help

    Is this Addict an older jacket?? I've tried on a few, they looked nothing like this. The shoulder seams were starting in the middle of my collar bones.

    Lewis leathers Corsair Addict Clothes Ad-01 sizing help

    Measure your best fitting jacket and send these numbers to LL & here, as well. Lewis Leathers are, in my experience, extremely reliable when it comes to sizing and literally every single jacket I had tried on in their store that was in the size that I wear, was spot-on perfect on me. Also...

    I actually see the problem, if this is what I think it is and I'd say you're both right - You actually having an issue and they never before facing this issue. Try to work something out with them, they're good people but please give them some slack as well as they obviously need to figure out...

    Okay, this took me a moment but let me see if I understand what you mean; The entire jacket is literally leaning to the left, exposing more of the left side of your neck / collar & pulling at your right arm, also resulting in more of your arm being shown?

    My Schott 519 in Brown – Thoughts, Fit, and My Growing Collection

    Yeah, why ruin a jacket like that? The jacket fits you - Just that it doesn't fit you the way you intended which isn't what alterations are for. Just sell it if you don't like it. You'll sell it anyway, eventually, as no alteration is going to change your mind. It never does. The photos are...
