    What is this forums most popular brand and jacket?

    perhaps covid did something to people in general, that we are probably less petty or obsessive about little things probably we all stepped back a little and seeing the bigger picture, accepting things as they are it is just a leather jacket, probably the immersion was broken. if you still bother...

    the geek in me like those videos lol, I like brand new vs 3 months wear vs 3 yrs wear comparison pictures, few years ago it's pretty easy to find such posts in heddels but these days only local japanese channels and perhaps thai channel when it comes to denim do that things :D

    How many jackets are too many jackets? RMC Freeman

    that guy modelling the jacket wear 2 size too big I think. easily 5cm off shoulder on both arms. the model on the first page cinching the waist adjuster too much, maybe it is a sign that the proportion is off or the model is forced to upsize for the jacket to fit on certain part while looking...

    What is this forums most popular brand and jacket?

    now I think there is no clear favorites or leather go to anymore, unlike long time ago where everything was FQHH and aero, or shinki fever. I can even see nowadays vintage is more popular and people don't really bother about type of leather or certain maker, or which maker do things better, etc...

    I think if you mix up the pants game with other non denim option, you might find your old excitement back toward your denim pants, I guess the same with jacket or boots... hey perhaps it is a sign that you just felt really bored with your converse, perhaps if you try on I dunno moccasins...

    how about that snake pliskin jacket from thedi? sure a black jacket or black crosszip is iconic and is the "leather jacket" but realistically black crosszip is very limiting to certain style of clothes, sure you can wear it with anything and anywhere but it is not the most optimal look soonish...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I think their front panel looks alright, just the chest pocket can be further down and away from the armpit. the side panel and lower back panel however might need a rework to make better/ more tapered or more hourglass silhouette and avoiding bunching up

    you need to look around in youtube or forum about the type of jacket you want to live with, also need to keep your weight in check and have a clear idea of your personal style, nobody can suggest that to you other than your own choice. but if one jacket is your goal then that jacket must be...

    I follow this japanese leather jacket channel, not about their long body lewis leather inspired jackets, but more about how they bury the leather in the soil and use it to make a jacket and other experiment

    Woman has street artist paint on her brand new thousand dollar leather jacket…

    thank you, wow, the jacket does look cheap in both pattern, color, material, and overall look, and the painting well... it is street painting look. I rather like just eagle or wings or a decorated cross or something like that.
