Your all time fav Leather Jacket (1-2) you own or have owned

[Blackadder]

FW San Mateo and Buco J-24 (RM and original versions)

I'm going with Vanson older comp weight like others here. It looks great and seems the right weight for leather as well, not too heavy or too light. I have jackets that probably look better but Vanson seems to tick all the boxes fit and comfort wise. I'm looking forward to wearing my E again when this whole summer thing blows over. Damn.

A member asked me to post a larger photo of my grayish/brown Thedi. He said that someone once posted a pic of a weathered one just like mine that was quite faded. Can't find the post....but if someone would be so kind to repost it here I would appreciate it.

HD-thanks for the post. The weathered one wasn’t here but on Thedi’s IG. Here’s the link…https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu0euKEnz88/

Looks nothing like my Thedi pictured above. Mine is a 'brownish' gray in color.

That was the only Thedi “gray Buffalo” I could find.

I believe this thread is cursed
(for me anyway) so I post this with trepidation…despite jacket weather being several months down the road, I’ve put this Aero on everyday since I received it. I think this is actually my ***All-Time*** favorite jacket, leather or otherwise, ever. It’s the first jacket I’ve owned, from any maker or era, that I would not change a single thing about. It feels perfect. Combines many elements of previous jackets I’ve owned perfectly and fits and wears like a dream.

It fits well too. You know what this means… you have to start your jacket odyssey again, this time in size 40!

All the other Aeros’s were a 40” too!

I have eight leather jackets currently. I don’t know how many I have owned in total. 25 maybe? 30? Well, it’s actually not hard at all to pick two favourites out of all those. These are forever keepers, no matter what happens.

Damn, it’s been only a year but I already feel that I have to modify my original post. I still consider the Brooks and the Oakbrook forever keepers, that has not changed. However I have bought two custom Thedi’s in the last year and they have replaced the other jackets at the top. If I had to choose to keep only two jackets it would be these two:

From the ones I know these two are also my favorite ones in your collection. The fit on both is perfect!

Your Aero Hercules is perfect, I kept enlarging the picture to see the build quality and it looks perfect.
Really shines at the price they charge compared to some of the more expensive competitors

Can't see myself ever parting with my RMC buco j100.

Everyone knows that people here buy and sell jackets like crazy. With that being said, what is one jacket that you will never (willingly) part with and why?

If you have photos, now is the change to boast about your favourite, staple jacket

I don't sell, but this 1990 dated Taylor's leatherwear Chicago PD surplus jacket is something I will never sell.

It was my first leather jacket, it fits me very well, and it has some sentimental value.

That is one of the most cowboy jackets I’ve ever seen! Did you add the accessories yourself?

We already have a thread on the subject

It's funny reading back that thread. A lot of jackets mentioned there have since been sold.

Edit: lol @torfjord beat me to it

One of them is just the neck knife I was wearing, but the other things yes I did add them.

all the things I added to this jacket are sentimental to my last pitbull who gave me 14 great years of the 16 long years she lived.
In those 14 years whe was my absolute best and sometimes only friend.
Her last license tag as the zipper pull, a deer stag whistle I made to call her is attached to the badge hanger, and 2 little dog bone charms that were hanging from her collar are attached to the name tag holder on the right side.
