Anybody have 1 too many amazing size 36 brown leather jackets? The classifieds always have stunning size 46 stuff but rarely am i seeing the small stuff so I thought Id ask.
Thanks
Jacket arrived today. What a let down. Did Schott do vinyl jackets in the 60s? This is the lowest quality garment Ive seen with their name on it. The styling is awesome but the leather (IF) is really cheap and flat looking and it fits me like crap.
I will sell it but it does help confirm...
There are always several amazing examples in your size range on the classifieds here. For a bit more money you will hat an awesome deal on a lifetime jacket.
Take your time and find a steal for your $300 or better yet save up another $100 or 2 and find a steal for $500! I know many are addicted to A2's (or G1's) but if you get the right fit and quality the first or second jacket in you are very lucky. So chill and the deal will come! your size is...
My wife and I sell vintage so i bought the eBay jacket in the OP to verify what I like/dont like about the cut/fit/styling etc then I will likely sell it at the shop (should be able to break even or make a little bit in the hot Portland vintage market)
If it fits me and I love it well that...
Perhaps you can look for "flight jacket" on your local Craigslist and actually try stuff on before spending any money. Where are you located? Perhaps a fellow TFL member has a jacket or 12 in a similar size for you to try out.

Just came across this pic. The thread is interesting and relevant because my many visits to LL last year left me feeling something was "off" and despite the amazing attention to detail i wasnt moved bybthe jackets i tried on. Now i realize it was because the leather is "flat" in color and...
Nicely done Navetsea, but just a touch too sleek and modern for my thinking. Carlos' Bootlegger with a fur collar might be the ticket. or even the Ridley but adding the wrist cinches...so many amazing ideas, so little cash!
Does Lamglitz do custom? I love their quality and have tried on many of their jackets but Im not wild about their style. Simplicity is not their trademark.
