    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Schott has a very nice one in black, brown, navy and sage @ $168 usd… slightly, but not much more than 100£. I recently bought one in black, and the quality is first rate. A few years ago I had an Alpha Industries MA-1, which was nice, but the sizing always bothered me. It was short in the...

    Is this for real?

    Total scam. This site pops up every once in a while. I’ve advised Jerri about this in the past. Unfortunately, the scammers are like cockroaches.

    Riding gear enablers!

    I added a Fox Creek Men’s Classic II Motorcycle Jacket this past summer, and a pair of Helston’s fully perforated leather gloves to my riding attire collection.

    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.

    Custom Blazer from West Coast Leather

    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.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    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.
