Croc is expensive, but that price is pretty ******* bullshit.

Still, some of those designs are ******* excellent. Still want a TOJ shearling DR :(

**** Belstaff is not normally a brand I pay attention to you but those leathers are fantastic. They remind me of Dior Homme or something.

anyone have experience with these 2 jackets?
are the incarnation/BBS a light jackets? As in thin leather for warmer seasons, or will they work for bay area foggy weather n keep me warm? i dont want anything as heavy as the other 3 pictured in the original post

I've tried on the last two seasons of that Boris jacket. It's pretty thin. Definitely could work as a three season jacket except in the depths of winter -- the sleeves are very tight and I don't know how much sweater you could shove under there. I really want one.

Reborn gets at least one size in every fall, and I've been told the same will be true this year. It's ~$2500 CAD in store.

thanks, idk if i will go the distressed crumpled look just yet, i think i want to go more towards a really thick leathered moto, i have my eyes on the MMM 5zip however, since MM left the brand its begs to question "what am i buying"

Some really nice Jackets on here.
Maybe not everyones taste but any love for the vintage 70s look?. Or even modern takes on the look. I actually own this jacket its been treated to a re color now.

I did notice some nice Belstaff outerwear at Barneys but do they really fit that slim/fitted? Last I tried them on they were pretty damn huge and boxy.


I assume they were all visited in the dead of night by the clothespin fairy. I would say they graded the pattern for their model sizes, but I can't imagine throwing away that much croc leather on a photoshoot.
