    New to me Schott car coat

    I'll try for a fit pic tomorrow, and maybe some detail pics. A 42L would have provided the best, trim fit had it been available, but 44 is quite serviceable.

    New to me Schott car coat

    After years of wanting a heavy leather 3/4 length coat, I finally found one - a Schott 523 (I think that's the model) that I got on Etsy for a screamin' good deal. I know that in a world of Aero, LW, etc. that this is a fairly unremarkable coat, but I'm pretty thrilled! Aero is a bit beyond my...

    Not vintage per se, but I'm pretty fond of this wind-up replica flieger with a lefty crown.

    Bow Ties

    I wear a bow tie pretty much every day for work. I like how they don't dangle, flap, or get in the way during the day. I have a pretty nerdly, academic sort of job so I can pull it off ;)

    Leather Jackets from Noble House in Germany

    Thank you for your prompt and very thorough response. I am glad to hear that the quality is good, although I am not sure if I would like the flaired/widened bottom. I will try to find some recent pictures.

    Leather Jackets from Noble House in Germany

    Stefan, I would very much like to hear your thoughts of the Noble House U Boat jacket, since I am strongly interested in one.

    For those who ride motorcycles (or are thinking about riding).

    I have a decent 1.5mm thick cowhide jacket with hard, GP style armor (Xpert Performance is the brand - I'm wearing it in my avatar). However, most of the time while riding I wear an Aerostich Darien suit. It is the opposite of fashionable, but is protective, versatile, and weatherproof...

    There is a guy around my neck of the woods who is making cool, vintage looking bobbers and cafe racers out of Suzuki Savages and Honda Rebels.

    Is he being serious or droll? I thought he was trying to be funny. That's how I was taking it. I certainly was in my last post.

    Leather U-Boat jacket advice please?

    Too thin for my aesthetic tastes, I guess. I have a cowhide motorcycle jacket that is about 1.3mm to 1.5mm thick, and I really like the feel of the heavy leather. I have never handled a quality goat jacket.

    Leather U-Boat jacket advice please?

    After some looking around, I have decided that I like the look of Magnoli's offering. It can be had in goatskin or cowhide. I have never had a goatskin jacket, although I understand that this hide has many fine qualities, but I like a thick, heavy leather; my riding jacket is 1.5mm thick...

    Leather U-Boat jacket advice please?

    I've been eyeballing pics of the Schott too. It looks good, maybe a bit too glossy for my tastes.

    Leather U-Boat jacket advice please?

    Hello all, I've had the urge to get a 3/4 length, heavy leather coat, and the "U Boat" style speaks to me. Aero's Mariner is a bit out of reach financially, but the Noble House offering is doable. I have read mixed reviews of this brand, mostly regarding their flight jackets. Does anyone have...
