Magneto merges with M.Bison the dictator. if you dare to design it then you must dare to wear it.I consider the jackets to be a form of "concept art".
I have not yet been brave enough to wear it out in public, yet.
I think of these jackets as more 'night riding' jackets, for the enhanced visibility... Or for fashion, an after-dark type of jacket.
Due to wearing a very, uh, 'non-traditional' looking leather jacket. This is a reason I chose Hillside USA Leather, they had the Royal Purple color leather and their "gun pocket" feature was I nice touch. All the pockets are leather lined, the gun pockets lined with horsehide.
Here's the other "Dick Dastardly" and/or "Evil Jester" jacket.

This was just a coincidence...
If I had another made like this, I would probable choose the black naked cowhide as the base color instead of Royal Purple.
To explain the purple and red, it's really alluding to the nature of light on the visible spectrum.
The purple/violet portion represents UV <390nm light (black light) and the Red portion represents Deep Red (>660nm) light. I think anything past 730nm is considered near infrared.
So, it represents both ends of the visible light spectrum. I guess you could call that a hidden, slightly nerdy meaning.
I also thought Black and Red Leather contrasting jackets were so overdone. I wanted to create something unique, I think I accomplished that at least.
