What is your favorite movie leather jacket?

I agree with you about this being Cap's "best look". I saw this in the trailers before the movie had opened, and I thought "Okay, now I have to get a jacket like that." Except, y'know, new and not all beat up. Then I got a better look at it in the movie and thought, "What happened?!? They ruined a perfectly good jacket for no reason!" And the search began. And continued. And continued. Everybody who was selling them had falsely increased the price just to sell a cheaper quality jacket for more money. Ultimately I never did get one, but if I were to find one today that I liked I'd be doing some serious inspecting and savings calculations.

Of all my Aeros, I love the Bootlegger most. Consistently the easiest one to pair with just about anything from denim up to collar and tie, and in cordovan goes with both earthtones and blacks/greys/blues. Alas, since I bought mine in 2010, my shoulders have spread irreversibly, so it's going to be time to repatriate it to Galashiels along with an order for a new one in a bigger size.
