This thread was my go to for intel on JL until I found their Instagram page.Not being in the SF area, how does one even get a Johnson jacket these days? I’ve been “tuning in” for a few years now to their Shopify…
Excellent, thanks!This thread was my go to for intel on JL until I found their Instagram page.
Email and follow up with a call would be the fastest way to get you what you want.
Their sizing is quite modern but they do tag things differently depending on models as well. Their pattern is quite good. If you are looking for a certain size I am sure one member here has one they can share intel on.
There is huge range in prices, floor samples from 500 to one of the kind custom 1600 or more! Exotic leather is expensive. Crowns zips from Japan is expensive. The more custom options the higher the cost.
Although JL makes show pieces sometimes, I find their strength is marrying quality Horween with everyday wearable jacket pattern. The money is in the pattern and go for the Horween leather options, can't go wrong there.
Yeah, that’s the thing; I’ve no idea what models they offer, no sizing tables (though to be honest most makers are shite when it comes to that) and no prices.
Thanks, when it’s time to think about ordering I’ll do a deep dive!This is the big thing. If anything, an old website is reassuring to me (tends to reflect honest pricing and product knowledge over hype, like History Preservation’s website). But with Johnson the only information about what they offer, short of going to SF, is this thread.
Does anyone here have experience with their version of the J100?
I’m kicking around the idea of getting something in this style for next winter and the degree of customization and strong patterns with movement range of JL is very appealing, but it’s not a style I’ve seen them do a lot of.
Very nice. Congrats!JL burgundy steer cxl - CR with dress collar
Thanks! After multiple failures in used market, finally took the custom route to specify exactly what I want.. skived cxl in burgundy is just gorgeous.. much more wearable compared to Aero fqhh, but still have that structure rather than sheepskin like soft leather. (More rigid than the Horween Vermont I tried in store as well even though both spec 2.5os)Very nice. Congrats!
I like the top sleeve zips.
Looks great. I also like 2.5oz CXL. Still feel strong but very wearable at the same time.Thanks!

Only thing is they ran out of ring/chain puller for chest pocket but I can come in to swap when in stock
