    I have a black one that I think was model before the one you're showing because it has buttons, not snaps. The best way to describe it is I paid $190 for it and I felt kind of ehhh. I know I've seen them selling for $400 plus which is crazy. The black one is dyed through but does have a...

    Bootlegger or Sheene

    I wouldn't necessarily say delete the gussets. You just have to compensate. 22 ptp with gusset fits a lot different than 22 without. And of course the shoulder measurement is more directly affected. I agree usually for the most part that shoulder isn't as critical as ptp, waist, etc. but...

    I think the one Marc/Monitor got was a 44 and if I remember I actually checked with Marc about it. I have a 42 and I think it's 22 ptp. It's a deceptive fit because those gussets really give you range. It's vintage and it's Schott which provide an interesting sizing cocktail. But if I had...

    Bootlegger or Sheene

    to check off a different box, Sheene. BUT, be careful on sizing. A lot of us with CXL Sheenes are not 100% happy. It is a very constricting fit and there are weird design "lines" which come off the neck. If you are not doing gussets, you need to compensate with more shoulder width and even...

    Leather Vest?

    cool. yeah, it's just the sizing on their stock stuff. I think Aero sort of compensates down because the size 42 is not even 22 ptp. I know the size numbers mean squat, but if anything they skew bigger. I've got 3 Aero jackets in size 40 and they all over 22 ptp, so was scratching my head...

    You can try emailing Jerri at Schott. They might be a little hesitant obviously worried about people trying to create a fake or whatever. But I'm sure if you show her enough photos, maybe receipt of what you bought, etc. etc. She was extremely generous with me for some things I asked for and...

    agree. if you got a shot of the back, we'll know for sure. Has more of that action back with the deeper cut lines (not the usual half circles you see on Aeros for instance). My Brooks has that sort of sprite pattern main talon and tear drop on the chest pockets, so it's a good sign.

    Leather Vest?

    Hopefully this doesn't derail the thread too much, but you don't see many posts about vests. How do you size? Are you going with your usual jacket ptp? Obviously you have more range of motion, so I'm guessing you can go a little tighter, no? Been eye balling those Aero Outlaws and C3.

    The Flat Head Delraiser (2021 edition)

    Oh yeah. Believe me, was on the Ebay search. Thought about ordering new. Sizing seemed weird. Big jump from small to medium. But loved the pics I saw.

    The Relapse

    Whenever my wife gets on me about owning now I think 22 jackets (aye ya ya ya). I tell her, you know, a lot of guys go and drop money at strip clubs. To which, I usually get a "so which one are you thinking about getting now" :cool::cool::cool::cool: In all honesty, I'm mostly having fun...

    The Flat Head Delraiser (2021 edition)

    spectacular. Was in the market for something like this. I missed the Ridley that went on the classifieds couple weeks ago by like 20 minutes. All the other D pockets I came across were too busy for me with the belt, epaulettes, etc. I got lucky and found some rare Schott model, but I fear...

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

    This one, oh boy, we'll see how it is. Never seen it before in the Schott line up. Reminds a lot of the Ridley except no belt loops and interestingly enough has side/back laces. Never had a D pocket before but was looking for something really clean like the Ridley that didn't have epaulettes...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    :):):) Saw your post about making a similar style with Greg. Gave me inspiration to take mine out. I did some "hand" vintaging and I like how it gives some contrast on the seams. I like this one so much, I bought the black version based on same design 641xx. It's at the Cal shop getting...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    same thing happened to me with my Schott 141. Tailor did an insane job actually making that jacket look like a piece of art from the box it used to be. But he missed holes, didn't finish stitching. Was a mess. I got past it after about a week because the cut is just perfect. I haven't tried...
