Leather jackets

If you are gonna go japanese for an A-2, I would go all the way and get a buzz rickson. There are a couple of decent american makers that shouldn't be overlooked though. I would advise against and aero, as I have one and the zipper gave me a ton of problems (which is insane given how much it cost).

Also keep in mind, that they (A-2s) are cut very small, especially in the length.

There is no feeling like wearing a nice leather jacket with a nice pair of jeans though.

Gani Designs leather jacket my grandfather bought for my dad years and years ago. I havn't been able to find any info about this company, tag says it's made in london. I'm guessing it was possibly a small leather store in the UK or something. Very unique design, never seen anything quite like it. No clue how much it cost.

So I've had this H&M leather for a while and I've been contemplating...should I remove the epaulets? They always make me feel like I'm wearing 80s shoulderpads. Not my picture btw.

yes. that jacket is really busy as it is, and the epaulets just clutter it up more. I think it'll look a lot cleaner without.

What American brands would you recommend?

I have heard that Lost Worlds is very good, but that the owner is a bit of a nut. I am pretty sure John Chapman has started making his own jackets, but I couldn't find anything about it. For a cheaper alternative, with less authenticity take a look at Gibson and Barnes.

If I had to get another jacket, I would probably go with G&B.

i did look at the rickson ones, but mainly i would like it to fit slim, especially in the arms. i'm not necessarily concerned that it's up to a2 specs, i guess i just want one in that style.

im super frustrated.. i spent ages deciding on which belstaff jacket style i wanted, then which colour would be best and checking sizes etc, only to find that they dont do refunds. i just cant take a risk on paying out £600+ not to be able to send it back if i dont like it!

anyone advise on another brand worth considering?

i know this has been asked before but bear with me

what are the jackets that justice wears?

Xavier wears Dior Homme a lot. I remember someone on SuFu actually sold it to him and had one for sale in the marketplace. I forget the particular model though.

*edit

Dior Homme Napoleon leather jacket, not sure what season though.
