    I ended up grabbing this one!

    Aero Highwayman Length Check Help Needed

    Most of my jackets are worn on the bike so I prefer the shorter classic motorcycle style. Perfect for me is showing a bit of belt so I think you’re definitely in the game. It’s not my intent to disparage anyone’s fashion sense, but I think you’ve got more of a pants problem than a jacket one...

    Help! Getting rid of smells on leather

    It appears that most people deal with smelly leather jackets by selling them on eBay. Seriously though, I know where you’re coming from. At times, I’ve actually had better luck dealing with old smoke odors than getting rid of the overpowering ”artificially clean” smell. The commonly used...

    Is this a Schott from 1983 or earlier ? Bo Brady /Peter Reckell

    Exterior motorcycle-riding, rock band, black leather image aside, I admit to watching a fair amount of Days as a young guy. It was my high school girlfriend’s show that I seemed to continued on with (long) after her departure. Seeing Bo brought back some memories but perhaps we should focus some...

    Schott Style 618 in Brown Leather.

    Hey Peter, I just heard back from Jerri. The cost to replace a horsehide belt is $95 plus $15 return shipping. Seems like a great price!

    Schott Style 618 in Brown Leather.

    I just looked and the check that I included in the box when I sent it down was for $195. That was for the new collar, adding a belt snap and return shipping.

    Schott Style 618 in Brown Leather.

    Thanks Peter, I was really happy with it! Not that I’m looking forward to asking Jerri for something else, but I’d kind of like to have them replace the belt on this one. It’s almost comically thin and floppy compared to my other Perfectos. Hopefully I can talk her into it. If she agrees, I’ll...

    <<< Schott at it again >>>

    Good idea. I’ve got to ask JerrI about something else anyway so I’ll at least try to get the medium and large size specs.

    Hidden in Plain Schott: the 613SH Perfecto

    The 613sh really is an impressive jacket! I think the entire Schott Perfecto line could use a little more aggressive drop. In a perfect world I’d have the shoulders and a bit more chest from my 44 and the slimmer waist from my 42. I actually think the 618hh may be a little better for my build in...

    Hidden in Plain Schott: the 613SH Perfecto

    Ducs, We are practically identical in size although I might have you by an inch in the waist (40). I have 613sh jackets in both size 42 and 44. They both look really good and I would be hard pressed to have to pick between the two. I bought the 44 first and can wear a sweater or sweatshirt...

    <<< Schott at it again >>>

    This is pretty impressive and I’ve had a 641hh on my list for awhile now. Anyone else selling these besides Schott that might have some actual measurements posted on their site? Would really like to see that bottom hem number on the medium vs. a large. Any thoughts on the 26 inch length being...

    Schott Style 618 in Brown Leather.

    The new collar is absolutely perfect! Easily as thick and awesome as the horsehide on my new(ish) 613sh. Here’s a few before and after pics.

    Aero Sheene Fit Check

    The custom one looks way better than the fit jacket. I think you nailed it!

    Legendary USA Black Stallion is Back

    I’ve bought four items from Legendary and have done some reviews on their site but I’m done with them. Got off the mailing list and unfollowed them on IG. There were some behavioral red flags in the responses to paying customers during the Stallion debacle, but the immaturity and pettiness of...

    New PER62 Perfecto ticks a lot of boxes.

    Dark Wood might be making a believer out of me.

    New PER62 Perfecto ticks a lot of boxes.

    Really like the looks and I wish that two-way Conmar zipper would become standard issue on all Perfectos! Great feature! Lots to like here and I’m with you in hoping that it’s successful. Maybe a teacore horsehide will be next! I probably would have pulled the trigger on one of these, but this...

    new addition to the collection - 618 44size

    What makes the Perfecto such a timeless jacket is that you get to make it your own based on how you like to wear it and what you accessorize it with. It’s why some of us have a collection of Perfectos. Personally, I have a t-shirt only tight one (best look), a medium fit for casual clothes like...

    New Schott PER62 Teacore Perfecto

    Got an email from Legendary USA about the new Schott PER62. Teacore leather, Conmar and Talon zippers. I could probably do without the underarm footballs and 26 inch body length but the jacket does look pretty nice. Doesn’t seem to be on the Schott site yet. Here’s a few pics.
