New Schott P656H, brown HH perfecto with collar.

[JackBroChill]

Now this is snazzy. Though the gold hardware and lining may not be to everyone’s taste. https://www.schottnyc.com/products/horsehide-motorcycle-jacket-with-detachable-collar.htm?catID=21

Got a chance to see this in the store and it fit quite well but was probably a touch loud for my taste. The leather is real soft, as well.

Honestly this thing fit pretty spot on, I just don’t know how I feel about the brown.

I wish they would make genuine sheep/mouton collars available for purchase on their own. They have faux, I did email them once about and they said they can do real but the cost was crazy. They would be such a big improvement. They would be a big boost to their heritage models. Cmon Schott just do it, my 618 is dying for one!

I actually love that lining and the hardware! The leather isn’t my favorite and I don’t really like the total package. Like seeing it all together I am kind of mehhh about it. But individually like I said that lining is so cool, the hardware is great looking and that collar is so nice. I wish I could get that hardware collar and lining in my standard black 618HH. Maybe a black or white collar in terms of collar though.

Looks pretty great on you, I dare say!

Personally, I am just not at all into soft leather. That’s really the only thing I dislike about that iteration.

I like what I see from the photos tbh. Especially with the lining, it kinda looks spectacular

10/10. I love the lining. Wish i was in the market. What size is that? What are your measurements. I’m recommended a medium. I’d prefer numerical sizing

I agree! Some gold hardware on a black perfecto would be killer. Love the purple collar RMC offers on the J-24 as well.

Yeah if this was a different leather I would honestly probably be considering it, something off about the soft leather unless it's like lamb for a high-fashion jacket and meant to be like butter.

This is a large. I'm 5'11, about 200lbs and maybe a 44 chest, 34/35 waist depending on brand. I likely am a 44 in the regular Perfecto's. I agree that numerical is much better.

I had a 50s Cal with this super unique mouton. No one could tell if it came that way or whether the years and sun had changed it. I’ll try to see if I still have pics of it somewhere. It was this crazy combo of gray, brown, and black. I am picturing a 618/613 in black, with all brass/gold hardware and stars. A gold or petrol lining. Aero has a lining called petrol it’s like a blue/black. And a collar like the one my Cal had. I would buy that jacket in a heartbeat and have no need to ever buy another.

Ah here it is.

 

[JackBroChill]

Ah here it is.

Yeah that's killer. It's a shame that with all the perfecto tweaks and models there isn't more of an ability to customize and get the jacket that's *just right* but of course I understand the business reasons behind this.

Used to be but it was too difficult to keep the custom department going.

(Schott is a fairly small operation despite the common belief here that it's a major brand like Nike or something.)
