    Got my Schott P613S, don't know if I need a bigger size? pics inside

    thanks for the tip, as long as it will eventually be softened, I think I will just do it patiently like raw jeans.

    Got my Schott P613S, don't know if I need a bigger size? pics inside

    I tried my other leather jackets and found out that was as far as my arms can reach without moving the jacket upwards, but P613S give it more resistance.

    I guess the stiffness kinda affected my judgement of the fit

    Got my Schott P613S, don't know if I need a bigger size? pics inside

    All my leather jackets are lightweighted, this is my first heavyweight leather jacket. I order the same size S as my lightweight schott A2 jacket. But it feels different: initially it was very hard to reach the pocket, but after a couple of minutes it became a little easier to do that. Without...

    For assymetric biker's jacket, I would go with the OG. I was considering getting a G6 or D-1 from AERO though

    Thinking about getting the SCHOTT P613S or 613SH, any advice?

    P613S is HORWEEN CXL, 613SH is regular horsehide. Any one has experience with HORWEEN CXL? How about comparison of CXL to horsehide after years?

    I kinda know that cardboardy feel, just like brand new raw denim jacket, but it suppose to fit your shape after breaking in. Seems everyone likes LL's cowhide, again, is the surface smoother than horsehide? I don't like grains. And BTW how thick is LL's cowhide? I've tried Schott. they claim...

    I don't like grains, I like my jacket to be smooth or even shiny. Does that sounds steerhide? I've considered Schott's heavy weight (after all, they are the original designer), but I don't like the fit, either the arm is too fat or the body is too short for me. They have slimmer fit but only...

    seems for LL most guys prefer steerhide (or cowhide, I have no idea what's the difference, their balls have effect on their skin?)

    great jackets, how would you rate comfort level for the steerhide and horsehide if the lambskin scores 100? I was planning to get a biker, I know horsehide looks best since it's stiff and will be in great shape after breaking in. I also heard horsehide jacket is very uncomfortable, how painful...
