    2 jackets for sale

    Just be aware that vintage as good and nice as it is can't take the same beating as new stuff. Once your seams start ripping apart or leather getting damaged...you'll know what I'm talking about :D

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    It's super overpriced. Even myself living in the same city I can't be bothered to look at the stuff.

    Freewheelers Mulholland Vintage Black Size 40

    I've seen the 38 on Buyee a few times relisted for around 1400-1500€ or so which is like $1800 I'm sending you the link right now on here an IG, wherever you see it first. Keep your eyes open and they appear, I think with the old label. EDIT: I sent you two links to 2 different jackets both...

    Freewheelers LaBrea

    The Darius in the sunlight. I haven’t worn it since Spring started though. @Carlos840 I wear mine in the rain without worrying about it. As you mention they get spots when wet but when dry they blend in and the grain pops up. The Darius above was sprayed with water until fully soaked...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    It just looks like any other French coat from the 40s and 50s. "Canadienne" I believe they call it. It's a classic one.

    Scrunch up your jacket sleeve?

    I can say that more than sleeve creases what affects the length is the elbow stretching.

    Scrunch up your jacket sleeve?

    If it's too warm for long sleeves you just don't wear a leather jacket. It doesn't look natural nor comfortable.

    Very sad to sell: GW Hercules!

    Absolutely. First come first serve and less work for you.

    Vehicles owned by Outerwear members?

    I ride a Vespa PX 150 but I mostly walk these days. I've had it since 2012 or so I think after my Honda SH 125cc sport got stolen. It's all stock. I don't care for expensive cars as we don't really need them here in Barcelona. Also with the disruptive alterations to the streets in Barcelona...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    In my humble opinion I'd sell the Aero and keep the premium stuff. Wear them more. I don't think Aero compares to your other jackets. As soon as I got the Sunset which fits me nice and the quality is great I stopped looking at other jackets until I found another Freewheelers like the Darius...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    This may sound weird but I wish I had a friend or girlfriend whom I could share the passion with lol I'd be buying leather jackets left and right. I've seen so many cool jackets over the years.

    Freewheelers LaBrea

    No. Never did a thing to them nor do I plan to. At the most I would use a bit of Bick4 on the Sunset because I think it's quite old and some spots feel "dry" but it doesn't darken leather. I could take pics before and after when I do.

    Freewheelers LaBrea

    @Carlos840 I threw the jacket on the balcony and took two pics. Straight from the phone no filters nor anything. The pockets and shoulders/collar area are the ones that darken the most with use. You can see how the sun is shining bright: I got it a bit lighter in colour but not that much...

    Good Wear Leather Coat Company Mojave

    Great jacket. Only thing I don't like are the epaulets, not my thing. One could think that if JC stopped making sample or test jackets in his size he could have reduced the waiting list for years now and many customers would have gotten theirs ;)

    30s sheepskin jacket made in USA

    I am surprised that it didn’t fit Robbie but fits you if it was small for him! I thought you wore a bigger size than him? Great jacket and short back. Love short jackets.

    Post Brexit import experiences

    Yes, it's very clear they won't change their price for overseas customers when other business are doing it. There's two ways to see it: - You're paying Taxes twice on the jacket , UK VAT and French VAT so you're given the short straw - You're being charged more than a regular UK customer just...

    Freewheelers San Mateo

    As good as it gets! It looks perfect but only you can judge wether it feels restrictive or not. I don’t think you should size up. Either this one or none at all. A bigger size would look big.

    leather jacket lifestyle question 1

    I honestly don't understand your points of view but I respect them. They're just garments to be worn, this is a piece of outerwear, nothing else. It is not a formal suit to be worn at a special occasion in my opinion that usually one wants to be pristine(and I do wear suits on the regular too...
