    Johnson Leathers custom 1930 Levi reproduction

    Getting JL to make jackets that manifest a vision in the mind is fun, isn't it? Looks great.

    Could anyone ID this Belsteff and tell me if its genuine?

    I've never seen a Belstaff jacket with sleeve logos on BOTH sleeves before. If they made it, it must have been for a special order/production.

    Danged Dog Took My Flight Jacket!!!!!!!!

    Clearly, the sleeve cuffs are too big, the back shrunk an inch after packing the jacket, and the hide is plasticky without much character.

    New LW Ryder

    Looks great. The LW Ryder is one of my favorite styles. The dual chest pockets make it look like a Suburban from the front but I do know that the Suburban has a boxier cut. The Ryder is a bit more form fitting, which I prefer.

    Monitor's Aero FQHH Cafe Racer

    My café racer fits the front/back like this jacket; I ride a Triumph Bonneville so I'm pretty much sitting straight up, and the jacket length is perfect for that function. If you were leaning forward (sports bike) or backwards (chopper) then and only then would the length be an issue. Also, I...

    Lawless Denim

    Well, if they wear like Ferrari's, you'll be able to wear them for two weeks out of the year (maybe) and they'll spend the rest of the time at a tailors or a cleaners.

    Monitor's Aero FQHH Cafe Racer

    My cafe racer was deliberately speced shorter because I wanted it to feel a certain way sitting down, i.e. perfect fit. It probably looks 1" short standing up but I am not a fan of a jacket jabbing me in the neck or thighs when I'm riding.

    Monitor's Aero FQHH Cafe Racer

    Looks great. Badass motorcycle jacket! Big fan of the back and the minor mods makes the jacket unique.

    How much room in the chest?

    Chest size alone doesn't determine snugness. Shoulder seam to shoulder seam can have a big impact on perceived snugness. I have one jacket that's 18" shoulder to shoulder with a 22" P2P for the chest which feels incredibly snug. My other jackets are 19"-19.5" shoulder to shoulder and 22" P2P...

    leather pea coat

    Re: type of leather, really depends on your individual tastes and intended use. For example, will the jacket be used in wet weather conditions frequently? Will you be wearing the jacket in certain temperature ranges, e.g. winter/fall vs. spring/summer? Will you be hiking or doing a lot of...

    Sleeve shortening on a G-1?

    I've had good luck with Minsky Tailors/Alterations on Arapaho in Addison. They modify leather jackets (mostly moto) and actually offer an A-2 knit repair and replacement service so there's a fair chance they might work for you.

    Kangaroo From Aero

    I have a kangaroo cafe racer from Johnson Leathers. It is lighter than goat, with an interesting grain. There is a thread dedicated to it for more info.
