    Who's the best leather worker in Southern Ontario?!!

    If you have a Screamin’ Eagle Outlet in TO, they put a new heavier quilted liner into my beaten up, falling apart Danier jacket They replaced the zipper with a much better one, replaced the liners in the pockets with heavy durable material, and even replaced the leather side adjusters that I’d...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I bought and returned two Roland Sands Design jackets because of the uncomfortable zippers they installed in the lining to access the pocket for the back protection armour. The first one was like yours with a horizontal zipper, and each end of the zip sat directly on both scapula. The second...

    No more Schott forum

    It had indeed turned into a nightmare cesspool of spam. Once Gail passed no one at Schott wanted to deal with it. Too bad.

    Recently picked up a Schott 9628 Men’s Nylon Flight Jacket. I find the sizing is much better for me than my old Alpha Industries.

    Is a leather jacket & shorts a fashion faux pas?

    Leather jacket, shorts and a tuque. Especially when the temperature is hovering around 100°f, and 90% humidity!

    vanson fit check

    Love the redirection going on here. I think you guys are trying to assist an AI attempting to fit an imaginary jacket.

    What was your first leather jacket?

    How did yours hold up? I bought a similar jacket from Danier back in 2000, on sale for about $250 (marked down from $500). They advertised that it came with a lifetime guarantee. Within a year the zipper broke and the lining was full of holes. They accused me of abusing the jacket, and...

    Status of Thedi Leathers?

    Just the fact that he returned it twice—then says he won’t accept returns. It just amused me, that’s all.

    Status of Thedi Leathers?

    Rather ironic that you won’t accept returns…

    Nice jacket. You might want to get a hanger that supports the shoulders. You could end up with lumps in the leather.

    Love those 118’s. Between the 118 and the 141 which do you prefer? Two completely different animals, I know, but just for the sake of curiosity.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Well, I just learned something new about my jacket. I noticed a second snap on the lapel, that you can’t see when the lapels are open. And this is what it’s for. You can’t see it from the front. So I can wear it either way, collar splitting the zip or all snapped down. Very cool. BTW...

    I thought that it might be something where once the leather breaks in and relaxes that it would sit naturally. Kind of makes me wonder why they’re made like that.

    Very nice. I recently picked up a crosszip, and mine does the same thing if I try to zip it all the way up—either the collar splits the zipper, or with the zip all the way up, the collar sits kind of funny. Is this a normal feature with all crosszips?

    Denim Jackets - New or Vintage

    I’ve worn my early 90’s Levis jean jacket twice in the last couple of months. Strange, because I don’t think I’ve worn it more than a handful of times since I bought it, way back then. I just kind of fell out of love with denim jackets… not sure why.

    Thanks! It is a real joy to ride. My first was an ‘05, and this is a ‘13 that I picked up with only 7,000km on the bike. I like it more every time I get on it!

    I heeded @Viking752’s advice, and took my Schott 515V vest out for a spin. The vest is hot. I thought there would be much more air circulation. I was actually sweating—that surprised me. But I looked cool. Lol.
