    FS: Y2 NH-55 Saddle Horse (sz. 46L)

    My all-time favourite leather. Bar none. Only selling because I sized down. This is an exclusive for The Shop Vancouver, so you may want to check their website for more information. The jacket is heavy with thick, spongy leather yet absolutely pliable. Literally gets more beautiful every day...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thanks! The thing with blouson style jackets is, they’re so easy wearing. This one is perfectly executed too (as one would expect with Y2) and also very layer-friendly.

    So many nice new jackets, but this Bomber is the one I pick most of the time.

    Post Thedi Leather Jacket Photos Here........

    Off topic, but I always marvel as to how bad some jacket makers are in displaying their pieces in a favourable way on their websites. Thedi is like, ‘How do you like me in my kids jacket?’ Vanson more like, ‘ Even with this dad bod of mine it’s sensational how ill fitting a nice jacket can...

    Schott Fit Check - Help Me Pick!

    I find the Cafe Racer a little long for this style. A bit hard to judge with your shirt untucked and the angle of the photo. The 673 is really nice. Color is great. I hear you re bold/safe style, but that’s really for you to decide. Shame if the jacket would turn into a closet queen because...

    Vanson Enfield HH - fit and collar fold line

    Fits ok. Very beautiful jacket!

    The B-6 is the perfect shearling, IMO (this being a particularly nice example!). My B-3 is a tank and ideal for elongated exposure to cold conditions, but I don´t really use it to go into town. Too chunky, too disctinctly military.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Wearing them as we speak, albeit with a suit and tie in the office; one thing I had not thought about: Having the vamp in rough-out is grabby AF. Every time I stand up I have to manually fiddle the trouser leg down again. Hope this works better with a pair of jeans.

    Aero vs Johnson for leather cafe racer?

    Oh, the JL is fitted, no doubt. It´s just not that aggressive pattern that attracted me to the Aero. This one looks great, BTW!

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Same here. Promised myself to go slow on them, though. Prices are high and going higher with the new pre-orders, and VAT/customs really add a hefty chunk!

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

    He´s in remarkably good shape for his age. I just wish he had left his face alone. The last job left him looking like a cartoon character. He´s coming back to my area next summer, but prices are EUR 200. That´salmost four times of what I paid last time around. I am still considering it as I...

    Iron Heart N1 Deck Jacket Fit Check

    Looks good to me too. No use getting what was designed as a functional garment when you can´t move properly. In fact, a very slightly oversized look is perfect for an N-1.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thanks, Ivan. No gussets, no underarm footballs. Not easy to have shoulders with an ok range of motion without the back getting too much material. I guess I hit my sweet spot bang-on.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Love this! How is it to get on/off? This one and a wide-brimmed hat and you´d make head of the barn on the Yellostone ranch instantly.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Black Bear Brand/Rios of Mercedes Roper. What can I say? The top-notch quality is typical RoM, the bold design is typical BBB. Ordered last year. Weird last on them: narrow and elongated at the same time. Good thing, the higher powers have equipped me with pretty forgiving feet.

    Aero vs Johnson for leather cafe racer?

    After I did disclose my conflict of interest due to my very latest acquisition of a JL Cafe Racer, I might as well be direct: Aero is the much more aggressive look with a massive taper from shoulder to hem and the curved sleeves. JL is much more easy wearing. So, if I was back to below 10%...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    No proper light for days, but I am eager to show this one off. Johnson Leathers Cafe Racer in brown CXL HH bought from the lounge. Many firsts for me: first JL, first brown CR, handwarmers, single chest pocket. Leather is thinner than what Aero does and fit is real nice, so it’s a pleasure...

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

    Oh man! Freewheelers do some nice stuff, but this one is outstanding! Fingers crossed on fit.

    Aero vs Johnson for leather cafe racer?

    Not going to vote here, but I believe Aero gets less credit than is deserves. Scroll back in TFL threads a few years and everybody (and their dogs) were all over Aero. The mainstream has since moved on, but the jackets are every bit as good as they used to be. The tide may turn soon enough...
