Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

I’m a bit confused by the design. They added a panel to the bottom and moved the pocket for the oxygen mask down to the hemline...now they have a Marlboro Man coat with military inspiration ?!?
Also. I’ve seen many comments/criticisms about seams not matching up when zippers are installed, but we’re gonna give this one a pass when it’s only using toggles?

Thedi CHP, from their new collection. It has a pointed shoulder yoke like on the ELMC Highwaystar.

This Goatskin jacket from Swedish maker Out Legacy (not sure about the quality) reminds me a bit of the old leather jacket from the former GDR which I found on German Ebay - Our Legacy obviously used German RUHR zipper as main zipper which is known for older German leather jacket brands.

I wonder how it fits compared to the Jelado version

I was looking at these the other day & I'm 99% sure they're just reselling a couple of vintage jackets, without really making anything at all. Both of these "aged" jackets been released in just one size per piece would indicate this as well. I've seen both of these jackets before & Akta Getskinn label has even been discussed years ago here, on TFL.
On top of that, Our Legacy just sources stuff from elsewhere and I can't think of anyone able to reproduce these vintage MC jackets to such an extreme detail.
Plus, as you have noted, sourcing a RUHR zippers is next to impossible, let alone some old goatskin that's been sitting around for 70 years.
So they're full of BS but the jackets are still very nice and it's commendable that these jackets have been given a new life.

@Monitor I guess you're right that they bought vintage jackets, putting in their labels and selling for 1k€+ Nevertheless the jackets are sold out...

The seller on Ebay Germany would have sold the GDR one to me for 120€ but still too expensive for me.

Too funny, two minutes ago I sent a WhatsApp to Theodoros about this jacket but as black shearling version (not sure if he can make it in black shearling)

Theodoros has just answered that he doesn't offer black shearling right now and brown is not an option.

That's super cool, my favourite Thedi yet.
Any pics of the back? I can't find the model online.

Thanks.
That quilted bottom panel is the step too far for me... I wonder if he would do it without the quilting.

 

[jonesy86]

I get the feeling he will do anything you want.

He'll be making me the one the left, with the d pocket of the one on the right. Black hh with russet mouton collar. Plus some brass studs here and there.

That's definitely correct unless you want him to do a copy of another jacket from a competitor.
