    Levi’s Cossack Jacket- recommended?

    I own a Schott 100 trucker, and a friend of mine has a Levi’s leather trucker. While both look very similar, the leather and construction on the Schott are much nicer and higher quality. I can’t speak to the fit of a Cossack style, as I’ve never tried one. My Schott trucker fits true to...

    Levi’s Cossack Jacket- recommended?

    I’d go for a P620H from Schott before I’d spend $700+ on a (second hand) Levi’s.

    One does look bigger than the other. Have you measured them?

    Agreed. These Boulets get the nod for weddings, funerals and everything in between.

    Have you slept in new leather jackets to break in?

    Lol. No, I’ve never worn a leather jacket to bed. My Schott 141, was pretty “boxy” when I first got it. I wore it pretty much every day for about 7 months, and it’s broken in very nicely. For my motorcycle riding leather jackets, it’s the tried and true, get caught in the rain and keep...

    Suede jacket fringe removal

    My brother had a brown suede jacket that had fringes. He cut them off with a razor blade, and the jacket looked great. It went from a closet hanger to a jacket that he wore all the time—and you couldn’t even see where the fringes had been. His jacket looked something like this before he cut...

    Very nice jacket! It’ll get noticeably more comfortable as you break it in—so that you may not even notice the liner zip. The more you wear it, the better it will feel.

    $150.00??? Wow! You certainly scored on that purchase. I’ve never seen a Schott zipper pull like that. My 141 just has a leather pull.

    Schott 141. I absolutely love this jacket. It’s super comfortable, pretty warm and can be worn anywhere for any occasion. Extra bonus that I scored it for a song!

    Who's the best leather worker in Southern Ontario?!!

    If you have a Screamin’ Eagle Outlet in TO, they put a new heavier quilted liner into my beaten up, falling apart Danier jacket They replaced the zipper with a much better one, replaced the liners in the pockets with heavy durable material, and even replaced the leather side adjusters that I’d...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I bought and returned two Roland Sands Design jackets because of the uncomfortable zippers they installed in the lining to access the pocket for the back protection armour. The first one was like yours with a horizontal zipper, and each end of the zip sat directly on both scapula. The second...

    No more Schott forum

    It had indeed turned into a nightmare cesspool of spam. Once Gail passed no one at Schott wanted to deal with it. Too bad.

    Recently picked up a Schott 9628 Men’s Nylon Flight Jacket. I find the sizing is much better for me than my old Alpha Industries.

    Is a leather jacket & shorts a fashion faux pas?

    Leather jacket, shorts and a tuque. Especially when the temperature is hovering around 100°f, and 90% humidity!

    Love the redirection going on here. I think you guys are trying to assist an AI attempting to fit an imaginary jacket.

    What was your first leather jacket?

    How did yours hold up? I bought a similar jacket from Danier back in 2000, on sale for about $250 (marked down from $500). They advertised that it came with a lifetime guarantee. Within a year the zipper broke and the lining was full of holes. They accused me of abusing the jacket, and...
