Leather Jackets: Post Pictures of the Best You've Seen/Owned?

I’m about 10 lbs over my normal weight right now as well.

Aren't we all.

Shoulders fit well. Arm length looks good.

Try it with two tennis balls to check the chest.

Question for all you homies: Say you had a black leather (in my case, a cafe racer) that's no longer in production that you loved the fit and construction of. If you came across one in brown would you grab it? Or would it be too redundant for ya?

Another one: So I get that this jacket isn't entirely leather but it does have some leather elements. So ... can anyone help identify this puffer? I dig it.

Yep, not redundant

Picked this up from EIGENGRAU. It should be the best leather jacket I own.

Anyone have thoughts on Double Helix as a brand? They are priced in the upper tier and their jackets look really good on sites like Snake Oil Provisions, but curious how they may compare to other brands in that $2k price range (TRMC, TFH, etc)

That would really depend on your opinion of brown leathers in general. To me it would just be a constant reminder that I don't have the jacket I truly want and I'd wear my brown jacket in agony and mental anguish until I eventually realize my mistake and sell it.

If you like brown leathers and they fit in your wardrobe you're fine.

That looks cool. I'm unfamiliar with the brand so I have no idea how the leather feels but it's seemingly a direction I enjoy. What brands/types of clothes are you pairing it with?

A leather bathrobe? Looks like something Hugh Hefner would wear.

Well, I have the jacket I truly want (except the Addict AD-01, but I really need to try one in person first) in my black cafe racer. So, yeah, I dunno. I tried a brown Schott racer at Nordstrom yesterday to get a feel for the color on me and wasn't feeling it.

Here's the brown racer I've got my eye on. I love my black one, made from back in the day Coach used higher quality thicker sheep skins.
