Without Schott and the Perfecto jacket, none of this matters. Also, Japanese brands are producing Perfecto style jackets that are amazing and true to the spirit of the original. The YSL jacket is almost $5K… Worth it? Not for me. But to each their own.

@@RadialTV I can’t speak for Rick T., but The Real McCoy's, Rainbow Country, The Flat Head, and Freewheeler & Co. are a few off the top of my head. The issue for me has always been my build and making sure that the jacket fits right before purchasing. Despite me being Japanese, I have a bit of a muscular build so the Japanese sizing is tricky. Also, there aren’t a lot of shops locally, that carry a lot of those brands. I have a Schott store in West Los Angeles, so my first leather jackets were purchased there after seeing which ones fit me well. I really wanted to purchase a Japanese leather jacket, so I went to Snake Oil Provisions and the Self Edge to try whatever they had in stock. They had the Flat Head which I loved the color and detail on…However, that cut did not fit me at all. I couldn’t even get my arms in the sleeves. I was bummed. But I tried on Y’2 and Double Helix. Both fit well but the leather on the Double Helix was better quality, fit was perfect with the cut and sleeve size, and the look fit what I was looking for. I opted for the Double Helix Innovator and I couldn’t be happier.

Yeah they can get up there pretty high. Sometime the price doesn't equate to better quality. There's a lot of other factors that come into play - fit, design, brand. Hard to beat Schott. It checks all the boxes in many ways. Saint Laurent and some of the designer ones do have that more triangular lapel vs the peak lapel of the schott, that's the only thing they don't really offer.

Unless someone is going to be riding their motorcycle everywhere, spending the money on an ACTUAL MC jacket isn't worth it. What's more... The "designer" jackets ARE NOT real motorcycle jackets... They're flimsy and offer no abrasion protection in case of a fall. An actual motorcycle jacket is going to be made of STIFF, THICK, HEAVY GAUGE cowhide, horsehide or goat leather.. And the sleeves are going to be about 2" LONGER THAN the average person would normally wear, and "set" farther forward and higher than on a "fashion" jacket... To accommodate having one's hands forward on the handlebars. The REAL motorcycle jacket is going to cost someone between $300 and $2,000 depending on the maker and any custom adjustments. But paying any more than about $250 or so for a "fashion" jacket that you MIGHT wear once or twice a year is for dimwits... That money could be better spent in the purchase of a bespoke garment of some kind.

@RadialTV

Жыл бұрын

Agreed. Most of these wouldn't be sufficient for riding. The only tough thing with bespoke garments is not everyone has a good bespoke leather tailor near them. Maybe with the internet that's changing? We're in Toronto and we only know of a handful of people that do this work. Definitely prefer to go bespoke whenever possible too as a custom fit beats something off the rack any day!
