What are your 2019 leather jacket buying plans or aspirations?

[Dav]

Hahaha very true, just not sure if I'm honest.
I'll have to leave it in the cerebral toaster for a while, see what pops up.

 

[zebedee]

I'm feeling strangely drawn towards a cordovan barnstormer at the moment, hopefully it'll pass.

Yes, it'll pass through the postal system...

 

[Colin G]

It is going to be a leather bonanza around my place soon. Four jackets I ordered in late 2018 are all starting to trickle in.

A Thedi will land today, a Langlitz I had to send back for a larger one will arrive in about 2 weeks, another Thedi not long after and then an Aero around the same time. My house will smell nice and leathery for a little while.

Make sure to put them in different rooms, so you don't cross-contaminate. I'm sure they all have their unique aromas.

Scratch one off the list! Jacket inbound from Portland, pretty excited to get my hands on this one.

I had to make a temporary rack in my warehouse after I ran out of closet space. This rack is for jackets I think of selling...

Is that an Aero WAterfront on the left? I'm keen on one of those. I already have one of the original green ones. I wish I'd ordered a size up from what I did, though, for layering - I'd be tempted to buy another one if Aero could get the green wool gain, though I may well get the red too in due course.

Yes it is. Its bit too tight around shoulders for me, that’s why it on my ”to be sold rack”.

Its size 48 and has quilted lining. Pm me if you’ re interested in buying it!

Well, bought a used Aero A-2...

My aspiration is not to make any jacket purchases in 2019..the odds of this happening..very small

 

[HoosierDaddy]

I AM DONE NOW....seriously...

Yeah HD if anything you need to lighten the load. I understand.

Annoyed yet?

So my Thedi showed up and the buttons are wrong and the sleeves are too short. Looks like 2" were taken off instead of 1".

So far that is two for two that are not right. The Langlitz and now this.

I'm kind of bummed out.

I can live with the wrong button colour but the sleeve length is wrong.

 

[handymike]

Sorry to hear that. Send it back...
Was it the black cowhide one?
Mistakes happen, even with the best makers. It sucks waiting twice.

Damn man. All this means is that your patience will be rewarded in spades. Sucks though.

I’m sorry to hear that man, and it especially sucks when it’s two jackets in a row!
My first Thedi was too tight everywhere but the remake was perfect and now that bad day is a distant memory.
Here’s hoping all the rest of your jackets are perfect this year!

 

[Colin G]

Ton, if I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. As soon as I opened the box, I knew without trying it on the sleeves were too short, but I am sure it will all get worked out.

Lets hope the next two are right.

Alas, that'd be one to two sizes too big for me or I would be!
