Haven't really worn any jacket till now, got both this summer. I intend to loose weight, but would want to layer as well during winters. 38 is strictly T shirt only actually
@Marc mndt & @oskar I usually wear my leather jackets unzipped, but definitely agree, zipped up pics are absolutely essential to determine fit of the jacket. Will upload shortly
Seeking fellow loungers opinions on a weird 1st world problem of mine...
I bought a new off the rack Aero Sheene from TB this year. This was a Sheene in size 38 in Natural CXFQHH. Initially, the fit was very tight at the waist, more so since I had gained some weight during the lockdown. The fit...
Definitely return, Schott return policy is quite generous. I had tags retained on one of mine and was stuck outside US due to COVID, they allowed return even after 4 months or so I think. Just drop a mail to Jerry/Denise and you are good to go

Sure @Monitor ...I bloody love all 3 Schotts of mine and will never even think of letting them go.
On the other hand, I do have a couple of Aero CRs I am thinking of moving(nothing related to quality, or construction, just because the sleeves are too long)
But for my Schott P663(which is...
I am sure none of us is trying to or even going to change another's opinion on what constitutes a great leather jacket
What I am trying to imply & I am sure @Monitor will agree, is that WE feel Schott's newer offerings in Horween (&Shinki) are as good as Aero, which is a great bar IMO. A newbie...
