I bought my first one in April haha. Few months later i now own three jackets from schott. Any thoughts on this one? I think it’s vintage, waiting for the owner to ship it tomorrow.
Edit: all pics are from facebook marketplace and not me!

Mister freedom dupe?
The dark one is sheepskin; the light-colored one is cowhide.
Welcome back to another episode, I know, it's been a while...
This round of “Keep or Sell” is actually a bit of a filler episode because this jacket doesn’t fit me anymore, literally.
So, I’ve decided to sell it :(
Let me give you a quick backstory. During my physical transformation, I had dropped down to 95 kg / 209 lbs from 105 kg / 231 lbs. Honestly, while I was dropping the weight, I kept my fingers crossed hoping I would lose enough to finally fit comfortably into this jacket again, but things don't always go as planned. I’ve spent the last few months training hard and I've been putting mass back on. I regained the weight almost entirely as muscle and I'm now sitting at 102 kg / 225 lbs. And now i literally cannot even get this jacket on my body anymore. My shoulders just won't allow it.
It really hurts to let it go because the condition is absolutely stunning and it's one of my favorite jackets. It’s a Vanson 4015 Z150 Classic Leather Jacket. Unfortunately, I haven't used it nearly enough, and it’s a crime to let a piece like this just sit in the closet.
Since I want it to go to someone who will actually wear it, I’m letting it go for €650 WITH international shipping included from Italy or OBO.
PayPal G&S to be safe, or Ebay.
I've created a photo with all the exact measurements:
Chest / Pit to Pit (B): 57 cm (22.44 in)
Shoulder to Shoulder (C): 50 cm (19.69 in)
Sleeve Length (E): 62 cm (24.41 in)
Back Length - collar to hem (A): 66 cm (25.98 in)
Hem / Bottom Width (D): 55 cm (21.65 in)
Shoot me a DM if you are interested
Hello everyone! Do you know more information about this jacket? I was thinking of buying it for myself, the seller is asking 50 euros for it. It is new without tags. I can't find the model online.
Got this jacket tried to search it up but can't find shit
I got this horsehide leather jacket recently which I love. It's a replacement for an old leather jacket which was quite tight around the chest (I could barely zip it up), and so I sized up when I got this one. Although I'd expect it to fit me relatively well, it's not the most comfortable. It's quite rigid (?), especially in the arms and shoulders.
Is there a breaking in process with this type of leather? How long does it take for it to be more comfy? My previous jacket was very comfortable in the arms, just not the chest, even though it was a whole size down. For further reference, that one was japanese S (lamb leather), and this is a japanese M.
I'd appreciate any suggestions or pointers as this is uncharted territory for me. Thanks!
Got this "horsehide" type 2 from TaoBao via Superbuy. £67 for the Jacket and £19 for shipping. Took around 3 weeks from buying it to it arriving.
I'm 6'2", 105KG and I went for a 5XL
Nvidia fans can soon own a piece of Jensen Huang's closet for a pretty penny.
Starting on July 7, Sotheby's will auction off a signed Tom Ford leather jacket worn by the company founder for charity.
Estimated to fetch between $40,000 and $60,000, proceeds will fund grants for emerging tech founders through The Edge Institute.
The jacket has become a defining element of Huang's image, much like Steve Jobs' black turtlenecks.
He's worn it at shareholder meetings and even on the cover of Time Magazine.
Recently thrifted this Danier from Poshmark, to my knowledge most of the Daniers that were actually made in Canada are prototypes made to be sent to manufacturers over seas but correct me if I’m wrong
The sleeves are an inch or two too short but I plan on adding knit sleeves regardless
I just received my Raiders jacket, for my birthday yesterday, from wested that I have been extremely excited for. However now I’m worried I had done research into the different leathers that they offer and decided on needing goatskin for where I live and the fact I want to truly wear my jacket for everything from get together, working outside, and hiking but I’m worried they have sent me lamb skin.
I hope I’m confused but it’s very lightweight soft, floppy, and grayish colored all of which I had seen lamb described as. So was hoping to reach out to fellow fans and wested owners to see what you thought ?
hi everyone ! i was on the hunt for a nice genuine leather jacket and purchased this second-hand from vinted. upon arrival, i see there's a lot of brown discoloration all around the pockets, arms, and zips. this wasn't shown at all on the listing. i made sure to ask if there were any issues with the item before purchasing and they had said no and that the jacket was barely worn.
this is my first time owning a genuine leather item - is this normal? is it fixable or should i return it?
I am looking for some women's leather jacket recommendations. These are some that I like the looks of but I don't know if any of them would be good quality. What I'm looking for:
Size would probably be XL or XXL
If you know have any recommendations, I'd love some links! This colour brown seems hard to find in anything with much quality, although admittedly I also don't know how to find out the quality without being able to feel the leather .
I don't usually make posts like this, but I recently started looking for a premium leather jacket as a graduation gift for my brother. He recently graduated, and since he's tall and has a smart, stylish look, I thought a quality leather jacket would be something he'd enjoy for years.
After researching different UK leather jacket brands, these are the ones I've come across:
TheNovaLeather is the one that keeps coming back to my mind because I spent quite a bit of time reading customer reviews. From what I've seen so far, it seems to have a good reputation; the jackets look genuinely premium, and the website also appears legitimate.
That said, I'd rather hear from people who have actually purchased from them or any of the other brands listed above than rely only on online reviews.
Which brand would you recommend for genuine leather, long-lasting quality, and overall value? I'd really appreciate honest experiences before I place an order.
I recently bought a vintage bomber leather jacket. It has some stains, probably why it was cheap but I fell in love with it for some reason. I would really appreciate your help on how to clean it and maintain it properly, since this is my first leather jacket.
I own a leather jacket, but unfortunately it caught on something which ripped a pair of holes through the leather. The largest hole of the two is 11-12cm and relatively straight, and the other hole is approx. 5cm in length. My main priority for the repair is the durability of the jacket, I don't mind if the repair is visible. What would be the best way to repair this jacket?
Additionally, any advice on which companies for repair materials are most reputable would be appreciated. I live in the EU, so I would prefer any EU-based companies.
This is a leather jacket I’ve had since I was 16, and the back is beginning to crumble. As far as I know, there is no way to fix it, but I’m unsure of how to make sure it doesn’t get worse. Any ideas?
