    Good quality but affordable first leather jacket

    Git it. Yeah, that´s steep. Finland being in the EU I would have thought the same import rates apply, but VAT is a different story...

    Good quality but affordable first leather jacket

    Your price range seems to be more or less bang-on what a lightly used Aero would cost in the Classifieds here. Vanson would even be USD 100 less, I guess. That would be my first choice. Even if buying from a seller in the US or Canada, the upcharge would "only" be 19% VAT plus 2% import, so you...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Oh, you did keep it then?! Well done! I think it’s awesome and it suits your special but always classic style. Two of the many features I categorically ruled out at the beginning of my leather jacket journey: two-tone and ivory/white leather. Now I am picturing myself with exactly this! :p

    Iron Heart „Pale Rider“ Evolution Thread

    Only minimally so. Leaving one or two buttons open at the hem pretty much does the trick for me. The thickness aside, it´s pretty comfortable to wear as a "real" shirt for extended periods of time.

    Iron Heart „Pale Rider“ Evolution Thread

    Week 7 - Normality has arrived Well, happy to report that the shirt has become more or less my grab-and-go piece for casual trips around the city, grocery shopping etc. That said, the thrill of something new and bold is slowly fading and I am just wearing the Rider because I like it, not...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Yup! That´s an "I´d stop you in the streets and compliment you on it" type of jacket!

    Question from a newbie: Why are Schott jackets not liked on such an authoritative resource as Fedora? Is it related to quality/design? Or with both?

    This! My first Schott was the heavy cowhide Peacoat from ca. 1998. Super cool, indestructible and timeless. Then I bought a „European“ Perfecto in 2013 that turned out to be exactly the „overpriced garbage“ referred to here. I owe it to @Aloysius and his 613SH post that I gave it another go...

    Schott per70 M size - fit check

    Not a bad look. I like it. If you feel good in it, it should be the right size for you.

    Ah, great info there! Thank you! Looking into spurs now. I don´t think, I will actually have to buy them. Just mentioning the plan should do the trick at home...:)

    Decent A2

    Aero regularly have there „Quatermaster sales“ where they offer A2‘s as stock jackets. Don’t know about prices these days, but I once got a more than „decent“ jacket for under GBP 400.

    There you go. Got myself a horse overnight to match the Rio‘s. Bet you thought, I was joking…

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Both are great, but this one’s 10/10. That certain Canadian lounger really is a source of treasures, as I was able to find out myself.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Nice detail. „Made in Texas“. Massive heel. Elongated to enable the use of a boot-jack. My wife disapproves…

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Yepp, the Rios are pretty loud. Fit is pretty decent, but I need to get used to the massive heel! Feels like I am leaning forward all the time. Guess, I need a horse. Or a bike.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Thanks, Marc! All attractive suggestions! I won’t invest any big money without seeing Clinch in person (Kentaurus in Cologne stocks them for some time now in limited quantities). All that said, the most likely route for me is simply a new pair of „Mr. Lou‘s“ in natural or brown HH. They fit me...
