    Hidden in Plain Schott: the 613SH Perfecto

    Although it is not a summer jacket, i have worn my brand new Schott 613SH one day last week for the fun. First, it is quite heavy, as heavy as my Schott 118 if i am not mistaken, although the leather seems slightly slimmer. It is definitively an autumn/winter jacket. Second, It is not much...

    Post pictures of your jacket collection

    Added these two schott horsehide classics to my collection : 613SH and 641HH. I bought them new on the Schott France website with a 10% coupon, which put each jacket around 1000 € each. Cheaper than if I had bought it from Schott US. The freight was offered... The jackets were sent in a big...

    Aero A2

    Tnahk you for the answer. Unfortunately, i can't really take better pictures sorry. I have tried it with mid/high waisted trousers (Uniqlo regular chinos, which land just below my navel) and the result is quite better. It falls just below the belt in the front. Which is much more acceptable. I...

    Aero A2

    I just acquired an A2 from the quatermaster section for a super fair price (around 500 € tax and freight included to France). The DHL delivery was super fast, less than a week between the day I bought my jacket and the day it was delivered. Super great customer experience ! It is a 38, my true...

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

    Due to a big unexpected arrival of cash, i decided to let it go ASAP ! Not a smart move, but I am not smart with money. I ordered a legendary Raider Jacket at Wested Leather. I have a second hand Wested Indy Jacket, with a very nice cut, but it is made of a slighty sueded leather that i am not...

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

    I received my Schott 125, which happens to be a Schott 615. I can't really say how old it is. It is not from the 2010s, the main zipper is YKK (with no mention of Schott) and the sleeve zippers are Ideal. It was in good condition, except on two points : the laces were completely destroyed (easy...

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

    I just ordered a Schott Perfecto 125 (ou 115? ou 615 ?) in black, second hand at my exact 38 size for 250 €. It is in very good condition, except a few sign of wear here and there. I think it is a 125 as it was the most popular reference in France in the late 80s/early 90s, when this jacket was...

    The big thread to identify jackets worn in movies/tv series

    Indiana Jones we've been waiting for

    i have just received my second hand wested leather Indy Jacket found on vinted. 38, which is just my size, and the sizing is very good. It looks a bit clumsy in its cut, I guess it must be a "raiders" kind of jacket which has this kind of look, with the strange collar and the rather short back...

    No problem about your notice about thé sizing of my jacket. I already have a Brown suede 38 schott jacket of a similar style that is 'true to my size'. Here is a picture of it that gives a clearer idea of what the cut of this style should look like. There is a slight oversizing around the...

    Help deciding on new Aero!!!

    Here is a picture (terrible picture, sorry) of my college jacket. It is a 36 and I am a 38, so it is downsized by one size compared to the Aero sizing for this jacket (which is a 50s wide sizing). It is still totaly confortable.

    You can only wear one jacket for the rest of your life- do you go black or brown?

    Black jackets are cooler, but Brown fits me better as far as (pale) skintone and (blue) eyes go. So brown...

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    But when I think A2 in an inspiring movie, I can only think of Dana Andrews playing a US pilot veteran in the wonderful classic movie "The Best Years of our Lives"...
