I used to read this thread in awe with a hint of disillusionment. How could you own so many jackets? Well, something happened before I really noticed lol.

I think, I think, I got my collection to where I want it. This is just the leather stuff. Don't even want to give attention to recent denim, n1 and other random stuff. Ive got a vest on here because close enough. Ive got a tbd Field leather in queue, probably pony brown d pocket of some sort, and not saying I'm done because there's a few on a wish list and I have a hard time saying no to a good deal. But I'm pretty happy with these and more happy they started getting proper wears. Lots of evolution this past season.

Ive got a few not on here that I'm saving for my kids, and not getting wears, so I didn't include. And a few on here will probably end up with them too as I'm a little redundant in a few spots. Goal is to get down to about 10-12 eventually and just wear the heck out of them.

Awesome collection, but I think you need at least one more Thedi.

Excluding a few repros and omitting wools:

This is the most content I’ve been with leather since I joined this forum back in 2012. It strikes me as hilarious that I joined this forum because I was sick of the frustrations and failures of collecting vintage and wanted to pursue reproduction makers.
None of those makers exist in my closet. 8 old jackets and one from Pakistan.

thanks, everyone. Yeah, @Marc mndt, another Thedi is on the exception list LOL. I'd love one of his B7s. Where I'd wear it, I have no idea. But damn cool LOL. I'd "settle" for anything really.

@ton312 I was cracking up as I read through some of the old posts. You had a couple jackets on your never sell list and I think they got sold. But yeah, your collection has evolved a lot. Carlos just exploded one day. Jon has always been breathtaking. Jmax has been pretty steady and mouthwatering. Mystero, just damn amazing. And a few others that are impressive and give me an excuse to pick up a couple more someday without worrying I'm completely nuts for owning so many.

What's even more striking is that I count 5 jackets from other members collections in this thread that passed through my doors:D

The Natel leathers jacket came in and although the quality of the leather was exceptional and thick the fit was wrong. Size 50 but too short and the insulation was thick and also filled the sleeves, which would not work for my warm climate. I had to release it back into the wild.

I saw it’s still for sale on flea bay.

The jacket on ebay appears to have had a repair done on the right sleeve no?

Looks good, this is the one with the weird flat spot on the right sleeve?

I tried it and just didn’t work for me so I returned it back to the seller. I saw that photo of the right sleeve but once I received it I honestly do not remember seeing a repair or bad spot. Maybe I missed it.
