You think That Langlitz would be a steal at 5K

@jonbuilder I was talking about a trade but on the other hand my FW Sunset is a good fit and there is no reason for selling it

Haha...after quick checking the measurement I guess this could actually fit @red devil The price ($4,200) is amitious!

New possible ideas for 5 Star leather jackets:

Lederwerk Frankfurt...they do have many interesting designs and leathers (Bison, lamb, etc) but I'm not sure how the quality is and where jackets are manufactured.

I agree your Sunset lives little room for improvement with the fit-looking sharp Robbie. I was commenting on how the Ross made 40s Langlitz in wearable condition go for big bucks among collectors

Recently on yahoo Japan at $6K+. I own several Seattle Woolen jacket, but not this one! Amazing. Looks like mid 1930s. Incredible leather

Really cool!
Schott made a very similar jacket a couple years back they called “El Camino”. Now I see where the inspiration came from.

This is by far the greatest jacket I will never own!

Jut don´t trust Langlitz (or myself) to get the sizing right and cannot be bothered to ship the jacket back-and-forth over the pond and go through the customs nightmare each and every time...

You are a wise man Tom71!
Considering that would be a completely custom order jacket in a custom hide I imagine there would be a lot of unhappiness on both sides of the ocean if it didn’t fit perfectly the first time.
If I were interested in something like that myself I would reach out to Johnson Leathers.

If I was a wise man, I would have gotten out long ago. You know, @A-1 style...
Johnson Leathers never seems to disappoint. Have been tempted by some of the recent showings but resisting for the moment.

Dave should really seek qualified legal advice to stop whoever is exploiting his good name.

Ok, kidding. Could maybe see myself wearing this. But not for the price or anywhere near.

This really could be a red devil jacket lol
There is actually a design developped by a very talented person for the "true" red devil jacket, it had been put on hold while I was stabilising in terms of weight and body shape. But I think we will be ready to get it started some time next year

Haha...after quick checking the measurement I guess this could actually fit @red devil The price ($4,200) is amitious!

At that price I can get two to three jackets from Electric Leather Studio (actually I have two to three ongoing ideas that I need to finalise with the maker in Tokyo)

Good idea! Let me send him a cease and desist letter! lol

So funny, mine is the “Sports-man”. Too big for me, but a nice jacket.
