Leather jacket weather again after a couple of warm days.

To the member who was mentioning "and mention it when you sell it on it's all good," (removed side laces) and therefore thinking that I'm THAT kind of a person (or a little child?) to defraud other members (potential buyers in case I'm selling it) kept me thinking to leave this forum forever and better spend the valuable time with family and friends.

But after thinking about it for one week I thought that there are fortunately so many other nice members here is worth it to change my mind. And of course it's everyone's right to NOT have trust in people.

Btw. the side laces were removed by a cobbler (not a taylor as I used the wrong word) and I like it (result looks good) - the seller told me all details before I made the payment. The jacket is really heavy (heavier than other RMC, FW leather jackets I own) and stitching (much better than my The Flat Head Half Belt I sold) and general construction and leather are really nice! @Mysteryo Thanks again for sharing the Vinted.fr link! The seller from France bought it through Buyee Japan and not from the member here as he bought it brand new and he wore it probably twice (like new condition).

Cheers
Robbie

Sehr cool ;)
Thumbs up.
I would probably have cut off the side laces too, since I'm not a fan of them. So you saved yourself the work ;)
And that doesn't make the jacket any worse in my eyes.

Another super addition to your great collection! Torn between sorrow and relief that we are nowhere near the same size...

Thanks very much @MrProper I somehow missed the info that you got a replacement (Have to follow all threads more thoroughly ;)). I think it's perfect for Summer by having a good contrast with tanned skin. For this Summer it's too late but probably for next Summer.
no you haven't missed anything. I hadn't written anything about it yet. still comes in the appropriate thread.
just so much ... great customer service :)

Superb. Nice roll of the dice. Fortune favors the bold. Sometimes you just got to say wtf, life is too short. I got something coming that I know will need some work, but I'm hoping just a little scrub and wash to get a really cool jacket for the price of dinner.

the fit is perfect on you, the collar looks glorious congrats!
the jacket is practically brand new. once you wear it more and creases settling in little waviness in some of the stitching won't matter.

comparing the picture provided by @Monitor, it is obviously the same jacket, all the creases and slight unevenness are exactly the same.

WIN! With a fit like that, what are you even going to need side laces for?
Love the collar as well, looks super thick and luxurious!

Nice jacket but...



...who are you referring to?
@All: Many thanks for your positive feedback! @Monitor Many thanks. Definitely not you! I always appreciate your constructive, honest and helpful feedback and your leather jacket knowledge is a definite win for this community! If you carefully read the post you know whom I mean. I’m just not used to get such kind of comments from people....
