Schott x Shinki Jacket
Exactly, they are clearly designing these back lengths for low rise trousers, which IMO isn't right.- Carlos840

No, i only sent him buttons, the deal was that i would pay the deposit after he had made the mockup/figured the pattern. This was before the youtube video that kickstarted his business...- Carlos840

Field Leathers
Well, maybe a wrong choice of word. Let's just say i was the one who originally asked him for a Peter's repro, Gregg accepted to take on the project in November 2020, promised me a mockup in 3-4 weeks in january 2021, then told me in March 2021 that my mockup would be done by the end of next...- Carlos840

How many of you owns/buying Lamb leather jacket ?
No thanks... If you want soft get some sheep, deer or moose, but lamb leather is basically tissue paper, it serves no purpouse other than being cheap and available.- Carlos840

Schott 689H too big. How bad is it? suggestions?
Honestly not worth it. They money you spend on it will be lost as a tailored/modified jacket is pretty much worthless. If you want to keep it, keep it as an oversized jacket that you wear with thick winter jumpers, but tailoring is never going to make it 100% right.- Carlos840

Schott 689H too big. How bad is it? suggestions?
Personally i would sell and move on. I have a Schott with a similar fit, 42" chest, had to buy size 42 so that i had enough length but that gave me an oversized fit in the stomach similar to yours. I had that tailored, they tapered the jacket from the pits down, it still never fit right. The...- Carlos840

Aero Board racer zipper splits open
But the lack of back vent will create a huge air balloon in your back which sucks big time. Real MC jackets need a windflap or rear vents...- Carlos840

Schott limited Shinki HH Perfecto. Only 68 will be made
I don't think so. Even the Schott 1928 special edition sells for less than 50% of new price, and it is nicer jacket. This one is just a randome throw away design like the 125, other than the Shinki buzz word there is nothing special about it. I think that in a few years it will all be forgotten...- Carlos840
