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

Is 100 series the name for Schott's mid weight horse hide?

It did feel pretty nice in person. Smooth, soft and casual even off the rack, which fits the vibe of trucker jackets pretty well I think.

The 100 is their naked cowhide. I had a 141 cafe racer in it. It really is a nice hide. More matte / less shiny than the horsehide, substantial but wearable.

yep. Aniline cowhide. So unfinished. Bad for riding probably, but IMO good for fashion. Breaks in pretty fast, will feel like nice lamb skin after like 10 wears, but super thick. you'll get some nice creases and sort of "micro" grain, but nothing like CXL, etc.

Kind of itching for a vintage cafe racer again. Black 42. eBay hunting isn’t what it used to be ever since they forced all seller into manage payments. A lot of small random sellers just left the bay it seems...

Bought this. I think these were made by Johnson Leathers. Not sure. I’ll have to ask Alan. I have no idea what size it is. But with fit pics this bad, who am I to resist.

Sweet price too. I also believe this is a JL.

Yeah. Well worth the risk and easy to pass along at $75!
Certainly has all the earmarks of an m-500.

It does. And this label came up in conversation here.

I was considering a $40 bid lol. Greedy am I.

I wonder who snagged the sportsclad? Hope it is one of the regulars here.

*edit: hope it's one of the regulars here. Sorry not sure what happened there.

Just got this beautiful Ralph Lauren collection (runway piece) greyish cowhide cossack for my gf. I hope she likes it as much as I do.

Edit: she loves it. I'm glad we have the same taste.

This may sound weird but I wish I had a friend or girlfriend whom I could share the passion with lol

I'd be buying leather jackets left and right. I've seen so many cool jackets over the years.

I wouldn't say that she has a passion for it, but she certainly likes to wear nice jackets and we do have the same taste.

Every time she wines that my jackets take up too much space I remind her of all the nice jackets I bought for her, which usually settles the discussion. It's a win-win situation

This is what I bought her up to now

Great looking jackets and very generous of you! I'm just counting how many jackets I've bought for my wife....0 ....I have to reconsider my generosity If you are ever going to propose to her I'm sure she will say YES!

That's a good strategy @Marc mndt Has she got a favourite?

 

[Riu]

I'm waiting for this to arrive soon, I really hope I got the measurements right since I wanted it a bit on a shorter side.

I'd go for a "Shawn purple"

Although I like that blue of yours!

That's a good question. I don't think she has one. They all seem to get an equal amount of wears.

Is there a favorite in your collection? Looking at my current collection, I think I have at least 10 favorites hehe.

I personally like this one out of her collection. With your collection, I'm not surprised you've got so many favourites. It's hard to pick amongst those. I like your canvas jackets, both Thedi and the trucker. I need to get a nice canvas jacket.

I couldn't say I have a collection really, just a few jackets and probably the CR is the best so far. Shame on those Aero's that didn't fit me as I wanted. If the BR wouldn't have been too tight around the chest, would have been my favourite definitely.

 

[Robbie79]

Not a jacket but my first high quality leather wallet by Thedi (dark brown cowhide) and my second Thedi belt (natural tan cowhide). I ordered without chain as I don't need a chain - I decided to skip/postpone my Thedi jacket order for now as wallet + belt are more "urgent"

Barbour Bromar water proof long jacket/short coat

cool belt, already has cool characters which is longer to get with normal wearing, the wallet looks cool from the start but is not really designed for cards management there, personally I think it takes away some "fun" watching your wallet taking shape from blank crisp new to curved shape, just me though.
