    How long/short do you like your cafe racer for casual wear?

    Interesting question, and one I've spent far too much time considering. I tend to like a jacket to hit below the belt by an inch or two. I recently bought an RMC J100 that hit below my jeans pockets (tops of the pockets). I felt it way too long so I sent it off to Johnson and they shortened by...

    I've never even considered a blue leather jacket...until I saw @ton312's thread. So much depth makes me wonder if it's even possible to replicate that kind of depth and pull-up quality in a lighter weight material. Stunning!

    Post your KEEPER jackets. Here's mine and I mean it this time..!!

    Started searching for a leather jacket about six years ago and I "think" I've found my three keepers. Bought more than a half dozen or so but every purchase was a learning experience with regard to fit and material preferences. My wife thinks I lack diversity. She's not entirely wrong...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Thanks to TFL Classifieds and @jimmer_5, I'm officially done buying jackets ;). This one couldn't have worked out better in terms of fit and is a makeup I've wanted to try but didn't have the patience for custom. Dark Seal Vicenza with a lightweight wool lining in Aero's Buco J100 pattern is...

    Beck Horsehide Cafe Racer by Good Wear Leather

    That's a stunning example @tmitchell59. Enjoyed your pics and videos. Fit is designed long not unlike the J100. Looks good nonetheless and while it's slightly big on you, it would fit me perfectly :).

    Aero Premier Highwayman midnight blue CXL

    I've never had the desire to own a blue leather jacket until now. I don't understand it, I have so many other outerwear pieces in navy, Peacoat, wool chore coat, navy waxed Barbour just off the top of my head. I don't know why navy blue leather never occured to me. @ton312 you have lit a fire...

    Langlitz dark brown Heavy Cowhide Cascade Approx Sz 46

    I’m amazed at the build quality. I’m not sure a cross zip if for me but it’s easy to understand how Langlitz has stayed in business for so long. These jackets are the real deal. I’d love to check out the goat hide. It looks like amazing stuff.

    Aero Board Racer (Buco J100)- Dark Seal Brown Vicenza, 44-46

    Thanks @jonbuilder! It’s just about exactly what I would have spec’d through Aero so when it popped up, I couldn’t resist especially at the very fair price from @jimmer_5. I’ve also learned to buy it when I see it. So many times I’ve hemmed and hawed and missed out on some great deals.

    Very nice. FYI the same seller that @Sheepdog149 bought from has an ELMC Windward for sale. I’m loving his collection and he’s the same size as me! I have an Aero Buco J100 courtesy of @jimmer_5 incoming. Can’t wait!

    Vanson Comet octagon 46

    Thanks @Guppy. Makes sense that it’s a different cut than standard Comet. I tried on a few Comets in 46 and they were all a bit bigger than this one.

    Ebay alternatives for clothing - pros/cons

    Couldn't agree more. I've had Viberg boots and Edward Green boots sit for months. Both eventually sold at styleforum but not in the classified section. Viberg has a dedicated buy and sell thread outside the classifieds that gets a lot of attention. I had a pair of Viberg shell boots that sold in...
