Hey Carl. I only own one leather jacket currently (a cheap one) but I would like to get another one. All the jackets I’ve tried on don’t really fit me in the arms and shoulders. Is there a brand or tailor you would recommend for bigger guys?? I have a 56” chest, broad shoulders and big arms.

[@borbies]

I’m glad you mentioned secondhand. Like you said leather gets better with age. I got a nice leather jacket from goodwill that would’ve cost me $400 for $25 and it fits perfect. I got my motorcycle jacket for free from a someone I worked for who’s husband died 2 weeks into his retirement from the police force. Whenever somebody compliments me on it I get to say “thanks I got it off a dead cop.” And watch their reaction. Which is fun.

I ride motorcycles, and have found that bike jackets not only are functional from a safety standpoint but fit better than fashion jackets. I have long arms so bike jackets fit better since they tend to have longer sleeves to keep your arms covered when outstretched, plus the leather is thick to prevent wearing through if sliding on pavement. I bought a first manufacturing vendetta jacket. Fits well and has been wearing beautifully over the last couple of years I've had ut

[@krazmokramer]

Good video Carl. I like the way your channel is evolving. Good Better Best removes the snob factor in only showing the absolute top of the line. Some can afford that tier, but many of your viewers seem to be looking for great value at reasonable expense, or even lower expense. This series seems to be hitting all the nails on the head (an expression from when nails were still placed with a hammer). Good job!! Drink looks good too!

Carl, right on with the comment on the shiny finish on the lower tier jackets. For years I couldn't wait to get a Cooper A2 I would always see in the magazine ads. When I finally did I couldn't wait to see how good it would look when it was a bit distressed. Over twenty years later I'm still waiting! It looks as good today as the day I got it.

[@SP-nx8qx]

What I love about men's gear is that at least there is some logic (faulty or not) behind the price, you can actually list the reasons why something is very expensive and why some people pay for it. In women's bags for example you list all the reasons why a great bag is expensive and that gets you to $2k, and then there is another $10k on top because it says Hermes on it. It's much harder to sell that extra $10k to a man (not that it doesn't happen, but it has to be something very complex, like a car). AFAIC the best advice for looking great in a jacket is always the same: keep your body fat low.

[@MürrischeHummel]

Well, take this luxury item, make it ot of steel, put it on your wrist and print "rolex" on it and men will fall for it ;)

[@MürrischeHummel]

The fun thing is that men will never be crazy enough to send this kind of money on an overprized bag. However, women will never spend that much on an overprized watch.

[@SP-nx8qx]

@@MürrischeHummel Rolex is different, for one simple reason: their prices have been going up consistently for many years. So, history says that it almost doesn't matter what you paid for your Rolex, you will get all of it back, if not more, when you sell it. Rolex is a commodity, as good as a strong currency, and in that sense it is actually a shrewd purchase. I know many guys don't think about it like that when they buy it, but that is actually the reason they pay such a high price for this brand, even if they don't know it: because the actual price on the market is set and supported by people who buy those watches for this reason. Remember, the price we pay for things has nothing to do with the cost or the quality, and everything to do with how much people are prepared to pay.

[@Automedon2]

i am a lifelong aficionado of leather. I've been enthralled with it for 50 years. Studying the minute details that bring things up to the next level to luxury is my passion. I loved your video. In my leather business I had the opportunity to examine many things brought in for repair. You are right, the good level is fine and respectable. Full grain cow/steer leather has the same strength and long wear across the price range. It's the finishing and hide selection that makes the difference. Cutting to avoid blemishes in the hide means there is more waste on the hide, whereas leather with a lot of finish in it can hide scars and the pattern parts can be cut to use the most of a hide. Also, few hides are blemish free. When you get to the very top tier, apart from the fitting and custom made pattern for your size, or even flying to the workshop of a top maker for a fitting. I don't think 1 in a thousand people could tell the difference between a $1,000 jacket and a $5,000 jacket (unless it's some exotic leather like alligator or ostrich. i will say that the Asian, off the rack jackets have gotten better and better over the years as they study and copy the style and technique of the top makers. I prefer to patronize the smaller craftsmen, but if it's above your price range, you can find good imported products. The topic is endless and there's always something to discover.

[@livio605]

Hey man could you please recommend a few brands u like? I'm looking to buy a new jacket. I already know the top Japanese ones like FW, RMC, and RC etc.

[@StuntmanDanHemi]

I 100% agree with quality for longevity, but i do think people should start at the cheapest leather they can find, including mall brands. Because you will need to experiment with cheap pieces to figure out your style, fit, leather preference, ideal brand, pricing, etc. Not to mention, if you want longevity for your clothes, then you definitely wana have a piece for every occasion, so in few words, get yourself some "daily beaters" and you won't even need to do much reaserch by the time you are ready to pull the trigger on a trophy piece, most likely you are already gona be gravitating towards a specific brand that checks every box for you

[@CarlMurawski]

There absolutely is utility in starting with "cheap" garments, especially as you get into more expensive clothing.

[@MikeBixby]

Consider 1st. Purpose ! Wear like iron?= Horse, Bull or cowhides and I've found goat to be the best compromise of wear and still have a reasonably good drape. Leather has four basic grains or qualities from best to worst; full-grain, top-grain, genuine, and corrected-grain. Lambskin doesn't wear as well as cow, horse or goat but it drapes the best and is the most Hollywood looking. As always…. Fit is paramount

[@WD.909]

I recently bought a $900 leather racer jacket from Theory on clearance for $300ish. I had to spend that much just so I could get a jacket that didn’t have zippers and seams everywhere. That is something I noticed about these jackets. To get a “minimalist” style without all the extra crap means you’re going to drop lots of $$. Kinda sucks.

[@orangepeel1073]

is it bad to have a lot fo suppers and seams? if so, why? I don't know much about leather jackets btw

[@WD.909]

@@orangepeel1073 When a jacket has lots of seams and zippers and all of that additional stuff, it’s because the manufacturer is piecing together numerous pieces of leather. It’s cheaper than using fewer pieces of leather. The manufacturer uses those seams and zippers and stuff to “cover up” all of that and make it look intentional. Imo, it looks cheap. I know there are exceptions to this, BUT most high end leather jackets are pretty clean and minimalist. Means they’re simple. You don’t have zippers and pockets and seams all over the jacket. Look at Theory’s leather jackets for example, or any designer at Neiman Marcus. You probably won’t see a ton of leather jackets that have all sorts of detailing everywhere on the jacket. I know there are exceptions to that however.

[@hawaiianpunch6534]

As a veteran I like the A2's, G1's and adventure jackets. My go to shop has been US Wings. I've spent $150 to $900 there. I did buy a motorcycle jacket from Glendale Harley Davidson. A friend had flashbacks from the past seeing that jacket. So I gave it to him. I also had an Avirex A2 jacket my cousin loved. I told him the story behind me getting it and that his mom was involved. I gave it to him because it had sentimental value. It's not about the cost of the jacket but the memories it holds.

[@javierdiazsantana]

Here in Mexico you can find all new lamb and calfskin jackets for around 70 / 80 USD, very decently stitched and with YKK zippers in the higher end. Extremely lightweight however, i don't think are durable, they are for aesthetic wear since here in Mexico the leather industry has most people believing that the thinner and softer the leather, the better it is. (Subs of this channel know this isn't true) Heavier pebbled steerhides cost around 100 to 150 USD.

[@wilsjane]

An unprocessed hide from the slaughterhouse costs between 10 and 20 dollars. All the rest is labour and profit.

[@CarlMurawski]

Splitting, tanning, dying, treating is all part of getting a workable product from that unprocessed hide. From there it needs to be properly clicked to a pattern which fits and looks good (much more an art than a science), the cost of thread, hardware, lining, shipping. It all adds up, and you can skimp on some of those expenses but they may be in places that are obvious.

Found my rough out leather jacket for 25€ on Vinted. Even it is second hand, the 5 years of usage of the owner before me isn't even visible. He bought it for something like 400€. So what I am trying to say here is, that you definitely should also consider a used leather jacket. If you want a new one and spend hundreds of dollars for it, sure go for it, but those jackets are made to be used for a life time and 5-10 years of usage can reduce the price a lot while quality only drops a little bit

When I finished my PPL I bought a WWII Government Issue A-2 Jacket from Cockpit. It was a bit stiff to start with, but has loosened in the past 5 years. While it’s not super high quality, it’s what I could afford at the time and still serves me well, even when flying. Now that I’m a bit farther down the road I could afford a higher end jacket, but would I actually wear it and not worry about it getting beat up? For me the answer is no, it would sit in a closet and wait for a “special”event or when I’m heading somewhere nice. I’d rather use the jacket and not worry about my investment. Now, I’m not knocking anyone with a higher end jacket, in fact I really like the high end bespoke pieces, but for me, they are not practical and more like works of art….

All the top brands mentioned, I have an Aero A2 which I picked up during a sale. So worth subscribing to their news letters. A shout out to BKS Made to Measure. Designed the jacket myself, the template was the Police jacket which BKS make to the UK Police. Made out of kangaroo leather, with pockets for armour so I can use it on the motorbike. Tailored so I had to go twice to the shop for fitting. Fits perfect, needles to say the price was top dollar.

I only own one leather jacket from Aero leather. It's a FQHH natural chromexcel with custom lining. I picked it up for £590GBP/$790USD. I couldn't even begin to imagine what the next price point up gives me. It's heavy, thick, stitched well, and just looks great. I mean it still stands up on it's own even after 6 months.... It seems that the next price up, per your video, will give me more exotic leather - but I can live without that! Great vid, a few companies I hadn't heard of that I will check out.

[@wilsjane]

Aero horsehide must be the toughest clothing leather on the planet. As well as years of rough country wear, my jacket and jeans have survived welding and stubble burning, including on one occasion stomping knee high burning hay to prevent a fire reaching the barn. They have had dozens of cigarettes stubbed against them, both accidentally and on a few occasions deliberately when their were no ashtrays around. My shorts (cut off jeans) also quite literally saved my ass when I slid down a jagged slope while rock climbing. Will you be wearing your jacket for rough wear as well as for fashion.?

I’m contacting you because I have two (2) Schott leather coats: a 3/4 length car coat and a full length, to the knee coat, both have a warm, fully lined, zip out liner. Both coats are lightly worn.Do you have anyone to negotiate their sale?Thank you. Bob😂
