Such a nice jacket, love these Trojan designs. The extra studs on the pocket flap are very cool! Those don't come standard right? This one doesn't have them: https://www.instagram.com/p/CnUK8f9Pj2w/

See this model only in the Japanese market as well.

The seller has modified the jacket, he just said custom but I see that he deleted the belt loops and used snaps to cover up the hole and he added those spot works. I thought it was a great price for such jacket. Sleeves looks brand new. I believe Legendary did this custom run with Schott some time ago, but not the night rider black and white, just all black.

There was also this white Perfecto that is supposedly 3kg so heavy jacket, looks like a 618. For ¥30k which I thought was a decent price. The heavier hide had my interest I wanted to see how heavy the Schott hides were back in the 90s. Still on the fence about this one. Just went to look and couldn't find it anymore. Wasn't meant to be...

In my experience, it isn't unheard of for a 90's Perfecto to be the heaviest you'll ever find Schott produced. I've had one 118 that was legit 3kg. The entire jacket felt above Vanson grade with leather being 2 mm thick. So it's not unheard of. Though I can't say if the same was ever the case with a 618 as this model is by default made from a lower grade leather but who knows...

I need to find it again! I should have saved my searches...

If you find it, lemme see. I may be able to tell you if it's the same leather in which case I wholeheartedly recommend you BIN it.

Here's the one I'm talking about.

Found it again, the crease on the sleeves looks decently thick

Here is another Schott KOTR/Herc collab with Junya. The beading on the leather seams suggest thick leathers too:

I'd say at least 3.5 oz, typical of the popular chrome motochap leather, looks like it needs a break in too.

Lots of value in special ran used Schotts.

Here's another, had I found this before I wouldn't have gone with the Y2 version... Live and learn.

That Schott Sears Repro is fantastic. I want it.

It's real nice, at least from the photos. I am keeping my eyes out these in bigger sizes...

 

[hardlyworkingman]

Sorry, forgot to reply sooner... I honestly don't know, I just really love the way it looks and @JMax helped me get it. Made by a now gone company called A&G. But it's a really cool wallet. Very well made, super high-class leather, etc. I'm really happy to have it though I don't wear it as often as I'd like because it is very thicc.

Personally i don't carry anything longer than is 6" wallet in my pocket. nonetheless it is one good looking wallet.

 

[Craig from Craigslist]

Arrived today. It's hard to overstate how immensely cool this looks in person. I was half-expecting it to fall apart or something but the leather has held up wonderfully despite the obvious wear.

I always wanted to own an actual shorthorn Levi's jacket and ended up finding this beauty.

Italy made?

 

[Craig from Craigslist]

I think so? There are no tags on the inside, but there’s an “L” on the shorthorn label which I’m assuming means large if that means anything. At the same time though, it’s pretty small for a Large, more like a medium at most. I’d have to probably find it by checking individual LVC look books, unfortunately “LVC worn leather type III” is not super helpful on google.

That’s why the 118 and 141 in my possession are my all-time favorites. Just love the naked cowhide that Schott uses.

I dug the durable out of the trash. Figured maybe I can use what is good for donor leather, should I ever need. You can’t make this up. Look at the matchbook text.

That, or for a pattern for Reg.

Just the seams popped, or did the leather peace out as well?

There’s a reason I didn’t post a pic of the back. I went a little off the rails. I wish I could post a video here of how the leather just tore like paper

The leather on the back yoke was weaker than construction paper.

 

[ton312]

Actually. Here you go.
