Aw man, if I were anywhere close to Toronto I would probably take you up on that offer. Were you looking to have a custom image gallery coded, or just general website help?

drop me an email I would love to speak about it outside of the forum
 
I just got my jacket today, and its pretty bad ass. However it is like JUST big enough for me, and Im skinny! Its def a nice quality heavy leather, and the chunky YKK zippers are absolutely awesome. Also I found a tag that says "made in england" with the british flag. Also the little thing on the front says "G-MAC." I don think they make jackets anymore, but they do make helmets.

Anyway, would you have any clue when this jacket is from hime?

Another Brimaco (my main riding jacket) with some quilting and of course the giant DO THE TON embroidered patch sewn to the back.

And my vintage Schott steerhide Police jacket - apparantly from New Jersey based on what someone told me from the button design.

I owned this Drospo for a week, but it was too small so it went to eBay and sold (like a few other of my jackets) to someone in France for a lot of money.

I actually owned two of this model. One was a 44 Long, which is I sold for $200 when I saw the same jacket sell on eBay.

I regretted selling the first one, so grabbed this one cheap somewhere. Didn't fit well so I sold it too.

One more - a Cycle Rider which was a Schott brand. This one was brand-new, never appearing to have been worn. Didn't fit me very well, so it went off to eBay as well.

Another brand new Schott - from the 1980's according to Gail at Schott. Made for only 1 year in this color. I couldn't resist, although it fits large and I'm shrinking, so it will be sold too sadly. Awesome blue liner under the zip-out fleece.

One last one - the obligatory 'motorcycle jacket' by Schott. Not a Perfecto - this one looks like it was done for some sort of agency, as it has a tag inside for your name etc. to be written in. Schott snaps etc.

BTW - Aside from my Brimaco's, all the Schotts are up for grabs. I'm on a diet plan which will see me lose 25 pounds over the next 2-3 months, so most of these won't fit. The Brimaco's are snug on me, so will be fine in the future (and I like them too much to sell).

If anyone is a 44 out there, and wants some great Schotts, let me know. The Police jacket, grey jacket and the 'Brando' style jacket are all available.
