I’ll for sure try and flatten but tbh that kind of thing isn’t a big deal to me. All my vintage jackets have some little idiosyncrasies. I try and fix them but at a certain point nature will always run its course and the jacket will do whatever it’s been doing long before I picked it up!
I thought about posting this one here, then I thought about buying it. This is a nice one. The red is less often seen than the green lining. Glad you got this one. They are special.I saw one of Terry Mitchell's YouTube videos a couple years back, and this is the jacket that started the whole journey for me. 1st edition 1948 Hercules motorcycle jacket. I paid a pretty penny for it, but it's at least worth a trial run for me.
I like this one.
John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather. 
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks. 
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style.
Wow!
Another Wow!
I did receive and then ultimately return this jacket. Glad to have handled it. Very cool design, one of the best motorcycle designs. Ultimately, I couldn’t get past the fact that my kit karson that I bought for a fraction of the price felt better quality. I am excited to check out the pre war Monarch.
