So I picked up this Schott P560 today. Its like new! The leather is beautiful. Its dark blue but looks black outside. I think I got a good deal too for $300 CAN.

Another shot of my old Excelled jacket.

Also, a shot of my Redskins leather I bought in Paris. I’ll probably be posting this in the classifieds as well, if anyone is interested. It’s a pretty unique jacket, I hardly wore it that much. It’s more of a dress leather, not really for riding.

For gauge- it’s a size Medium, I measure a 38” chest. I like that it’s a European fit, pretty straight and slim through the body. I’ve lost weight over the years, but it still fits me fairly well.

Funny... when I put on my jacket that I usually wear for skiing, my little daughter said "You have fabric jackets? I thought you only had leather jackets" (of course she knows better, but at that moment it must have slipped her mind, because the last time I wore them was a year ago). View attachment 490821

Same feeling here, I was skiing last week and that was the only time I wore a fabric jacket lol

I had considered making a leather jacket with a sleeve pouch like Lewis leather but a bit bigger for the ski pass. Maybe a LW because they are so waterproof... but that is taking a bit too far lol

IDK Fonzie wore one water skiing when he jumped that shark.

Aviation Leathercraft Pilots Jacket in size 44R.

Really more of a fit check (although I have worn it this morning).
I think it's too short both back and sleeve length, would you agree?

Thedi on a business trip. I normally try to travel with carry-on only, but this time I am gone for nine days, so I brought the jacket.

Was sitting next to a colleague with what I suspect to be an absurdly expensive goat suede jacket. When it started to drizzle he jumped up, panic stricken and brought the jacket inside. He couldn’t believe when I just waited out the ten minute wet spell without batting an eye. I had fun!
