LoL. Just posing for the gf in my basement. But yeah that's what those leathers do! They've already helped me survive a 70mph lowside at the track (on my gsxr) and the leathers are still useable. ;D

I also have a crappy 1pc that is loose on me and looks uglier than sin...

And I got a rain proof leather/textile Spidi jacket.

Cool 8) 8) 8)......

Out with the old and in with the new.
Just couldn't squeeze my middle age "pooch" into the old faithful size 40 any more.


So Yesterday I got my B-day present a little early seeing as I apparently am now a size 44!

 

[dewjantim]

Nice jackets....... both of them. The new one should be great for winter riding .......

I love this thread. Great to see all the vintage leather jackets. I have been looking for one forever but at 6ft 220lbs its challenging to say the least. Not many vintage coats made that big. I may have to settle for a new jacket .....boooo

Heres my oldy & newy........... The old one is beat to hell, its survived 2 laydowns.... And yes thats a Woody patch.. (she's gonna live in the closet now ) An yes I painted Betty Page as Shiva on the back circa 1997... She's has served me well......

But I love when a friend kicks you down his old stuff (thank you Randy Huwett of British & American in Doraville GA)... Not bad for a 10 plus yr old jacket...... NOW it needs patches...... (looking to get my DTT patch soon)

Just got this packaged in the mail today...won this sweet TTleathers jacket off fleabay last week, it made the trip across the pond and was waiting for me today when I got home from work. It fits pretty damn good, I can't wait to test it out!

ehhh... its been awhile since Ive added anything interesting to this thread...
Here are a few jackets of "honourable mention" that I found in my closet over the past few months...

Vintage "Made in England" TT Leathers... (seemingly becoming more common than a grass in a field)

Here is one of particular rarity:
Vintage "Made in Germany" waist length (not a 3/4 length jacket), Hein Gericke "SteamPunk - American CivilWar-ish" freakin cool jacket:

Just love the spot work on that jacket...

Leon you have some sweet jackets. How many do you have? Also did you make a light box or something for taking such well lit pictures?

Here is my new British Motorcycle Gear Montana Jacket with a fresh rub down of Leather Honey.

Thanks man... I have no idea. I just find them in my closet.
No, no light box. Just laid flat on the bed with the shudders open...

Found this in the back of my closet back when I used to nerd it up. I made the chain mail myself. I used to have a patch of chainmail in the front but it ripped off.
What do you guys think?

Not leather, here I am at Delaware Vally Norton Riders event last Sun. One of several there rocking vintage Belstaf waxed cotton.

I'm still itching to pull the pin on a Belstaff Trialmaster but can't quite muster the courage to drop $500 on one yet.
