This is the jacket in question:
This is the jacket in '96:
The back:
Rockabilly's jacket is very similar to the bootlegger indeed, this one has many different details...a pity that Aero doesn't offer buffalo anymore, I love their californian model. Imo Magnoli's jacket is too long...
Congratulations! I was looking for a Snake Plissken jacket for a long time, since I watched the movie the first time when I was...I think 9.
The original jacket was surely a vintage (30s or 40s) motorcycle jacket, basically a D-pocket without ehm...D pocket but with a vertical zipper, a zippo...
I have approximately your numbers and I wear a size 38 30's half belt which is even more snug than the 50s pattern, however if you like it don't care about the comments of the people of the board, the jacket is yours!
Schott makes distressed G1s/A-2s like this one, that has a 80s feel: they were very popular in those days.

IMO...
You mean like the hordes of germanic people with their powerful BMWs with blue and white registration plates who cyclically (every weekend) invade Riva del Garda for biking around the lake or Verona to see the opera in the Arena, recalling the place as the southern vanguard of the K.u.K.?
Oh...
Yes their pictures are better than mine! :)
I have own four Aeros, a D-1, a 2nd Hercules, an heavy steerhide HB and a custom Hyghwayman, I can compare the Pegasus with the latter twos, in particular with the 30s HB which is very similar in term of size and fit...both jackets are top notch in...
Mmm, I'm not a Langlitz expert but I don't think it's a cascade, and I think they should advertise more this model. Like Dortiz I always considered Langlitz to be the Cadillac, or the Mercedes, of this business and a product like this model would show they can also make things not in line with...
Interesting Tony, today I visited LL and I got a brochure: all the the double breasted jackets were indeed called "lancer jacket", I assume it was the old british term for these jackets...that I like!
For the zippers, the Ideals used on this D pocket are the same as the Aero Conmars...same...
