What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Angry Souls in Madrid has some Schotts (USA ones) and Iron Heart.

Redcast Heritage has Double Helix, Flat Head and Shangri-la but it’s by appointment only I think.

Both are mainly about raw denim rather than leather though.

Awesome! Thank you!! I’ve wanted to see Double Helix in person. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to do so.

Happy holidays! So many great jackets! I’m on holiday in Porto, Portugal and then on to Madrid. Are there any leather jacket stores I should visit?

You've been told about Redcast Heritage already, I got my first pair of raw denim from there. Sadly, last time I was in Madrid was when they were doing some works in the store so they were closed temporarily and I couldn't go, but I dealt with Eduardo and María over email, both were lovely and extremely helpful. I'll make sure to stop by next time I'm there.

Wearing the 1982-1983 Vanson Model E. Thanks to @Jasonissm for a great jacket. It has floated around to several forum members, and I'm glad to have it currently. If ever there was a jacket that can make an everyman feel like a rock star, this is definitely it. Smells great, broken in, aged very well. Thankful and excited.

Thank you my brother the horse hide was stiff and being that it was a type 2 I really wanted to do the best I can to start to get that drape and arm rolls so no babying worn in. Light rain and drives and now it’s starting to settle down they warned me the tack buttons would be a pain at first but I didn’t want to have snap buttons so I said bring it on

Love the color. Once the pull-up starts for real, this will marble like crazy!

As to tack-buttons: I would go snap buttons any day of the week. My Y2 Type 1 and the Chore Coat are still pretty much un-buttonable even after the leather is pretty much broken in. @Marc mndt once posted a "Button-assistant" that he used for his button-up boots.
I guess, the holes will ease up eventually but until then you will be recognizable as "he who bleeds from his fingers"...

I guess the Edwardian button hook should work for jackets as well .
