I'd take my Johnson Leather M-8002 modified 60s Car Coat in bisonhide. I'd miss my Highwayman and my Vanson Stadium, but these are off the rack and easily replaced.
and i never want to deal with DD ever again...
As much as I like my leather jacket, I'd probably grab this one:
I think it might be flame retardant as well
Wife is all I have now. Well, and the cats.
Naturally we shall assume all your loved ones are safe and sound, and that the weather outside has no bearing on the choice you make!
For me, that jacket is probably my Vanson x Epaulet Trident jacket. Modeled after the Model B, it has slightly taken in shoulders, blacked out hardware and is made using their midweight Z150 leather.
I never expected to grow to love this jacket so much. In fact, I picked it up from Epaulets sale section for peanuts after my brother insisted I give Vanson a try. When I first got the jacket, it fit extremely boxy and awkward. Only after months of wear, did the jacket start to drape and just feel downright comfortable. Now, I consider it my best fitting jacket!
I watched those for a while, as I have a lot of stuff from Epaulet, but like you, I couldn't get past how square the shoulders were... more than any jacket I have ever seen. Now it looks great on you, and you got it for a fantastic price.
Pretty sure I would take the old Vanson I just acquired, as it would take me 20 - 30 years to replicate. The others I could just re-order with the homeowners.
Hey, I got four of 'em and they eat better than meno love for the cats then, ehh? wife goes first
