I see guys wearing it and it's okay on them. They're not badass. They're just normal dudes wearing normal jackets that aren't even expensive.
I know instinctively that I could not pull it off, though.
Why is it so?

What?

cuz u look like a bitch

I copped this on sale for $175. No regrets tbqh.

just don't go for grandpa-teir WWII shit quality bomber jackets like OP's and u good m8

>zombie killing jackets

So 2008.

found this jacket at goodwill for $20, all real leather and like 50 years old, its perfect for my climate because its mostly windy here and not all that wet. lookin like im in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

This

The jacket looks cool. I hope you don't actually stand like that in public.

lol i dont i actually never wear the hood up but thats the only pic of it on that i have.

found a better pic i forgot about

wow, that looks even better

it's just your fetish talking.

they're like inside-out fursuits.

Damn. Did it have a label for w2c?

Bought this for like 30 bucks

this is the only label on it and it hasnt helped me find much info

Normiecore

Kys

you look like a pussy probably

w2c a quality riding jacket?
Looking for simple; nothing with a gigantic HD logo on the back or anything

Its called not giving a fuck

>Everything that is not normcore is dadcore

The cancer that is killing Veeky Forums

Nice.

I want to pacify my inner naziboo and get one of these

Does anyone else feel like leather jackets would be fedora-tier if it weren't for biker gangs?
f to pay respect

Leather has a long standing tradition

Why should it be

I don't understand what you did not understand. Did you get thrown by the question "Why is it so?"

Actually I suspect it might be the other way around. Without biker gangs they might be much more acceptable.
1920s through 1950s a leather jacket was basically just work wear. Even sportswear.
Through biker gangs and/or depictions of biker gangs they gained connotations of being a costume and not for everyone. Or at least tied to use of motorcycles.

Really close to copping this falcon garments dr1 for 800, thoughts?

...

should I know anything before buying a used leather jacket on ebay

is that one of those made in korea ones

pls post more pics

how thick is the leather? have you conditioned it?

Yeah it's the Korean ones with the map inside. Global Identity G-111

I'm on vacation so no other pics sadly.

It's a pretty nice thickness, like your average jacket. What's conditioning it mean?

It's 90€ for faux leather jacket.

Cop or not? Looks decent but short on the back.

I don't really like the white collar, but it's just not my style. If you like it, go for it because the rest of the jacket is sweet.

>It's a pretty nice thickness
what specifically though. in millimeters
>What's conditioning it mean?
leather is conditioned for upkeep
like hair

Try not to look at it like that I guess, it is a nice jacket that looks good even without prior knowledge of the game.

Any advice on Veeky Forums riding jackets?

>the white collar
it's a sherpa/wool lining

Get one that fits well and is not made of shitty leather.

More expensive is usually better when it comes to leather. Well as long as it is not designer shit, more expensive is never reflective of quality when it comes to that.

I appreciate the advice famalam but that's fairly general, I was hoping to get brands to look into

>faux leather
stop

Sandro quality is nice. One in most typical styles.

On what weather to wear a shearling jacket of a lighter scale.

yeah it'll probably smell like the old dude that died wearing it

windy days with bitter cold

>$20
You asshole. :) It looks good on you.

The jacket seems to be made in Turkey for distribution in the German market, since it reads 'Ecthes Leder' (Typo on the label should be 'Echtes') which means 'Real Leather'. But if it's really 50 years old, the company will not exist anymore.

that's me, the jacket is camel.
it's hard for me to find the right approach to it, since it's a little baggy/oversized. Any inspo?

idk why it flipped.

holy shit i literally got the same jacket at a goodwill near me this weekend.

Only if you're a fullpatch 1%er.

So you're the Ganado who took Leon's jacket, huh?

ya thats about as much as i had gathered, its a fun mystery!

Lucky cunt

Jacket is cool, those pants are hideous tho.

Don't do it. With everyone wearing a similar style currently, you will just look like everyone else but you just wasted a lot more money to be part of the mass

ya those were a failed experiment
