What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[AbbaDatDeHat]

Greetings All:
Today....i went to measure my daughter for her kick a** Langlitz Cascade and i thought i’d tease her with it’s big brother Columbia. It worked, so did her measurements.
Last pic is what you get when you tell a 2 yo to say ****** instead of cheese. You been warned.
Be well. Bowen

Unbeatable Kadoya, simply most comfortable motorcycle jacket I have so far, brilliant pattern.

Thanks for labeling Hh and i agree, brilliant pattern and fit.
I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t wear that anytime and everywhere. Other than people drooling on it.
Had to laugh at your “too old for that style” remark the other day. I’m too old but i don’t care. I get more compliments from guys and gals around your age than anyone. And drool. Lol

Appreciate! Kadoya still is my Saturday jacket ( Weekdays at school, Sunday at church).
I think I don't have that " don't care what people think" kind of character, which makes me a less cool person which contradictory to this character of this jacket, I admire people who has this character, which include you.

Excellent, thank you!

@AbbaDatDeHat , What a cutie! That Langlitz suits you extremely well. I hope to see pics of the Cascade when it is done.

@Hh, That "thing" is a beast. Fits you perfect. I would like to see this "thing" evolve.

Let the jacket be your therapy. Wear it...it will come.

Excellent, thank you!

They’ve got a bunch of nice jackets. The Cossack style, j-24 and car coat are very well designed. Leather looks very shiny/plasticky but for that price one can put up with that I guess.

Got this thanks to the "Finds and deals" thread. Been looking for a Langlitz a long time to no avail, until recently 3 opportunities appeared at the same time, this one being the most interesting fitwise. @Guppy had a decisive input in my decision, getting additional information from the buyer and suggesting the deal could be done with a reasonable offer. He was totally right about that, and in no time, the jacket was mine.
When it arrived, I realized that Langlitz is really something else. First, I was relieved to see the fit seemed OK, especially in the waist . But the leather! I think they call it midweight, but this is probably one of the thickest I've ever came across. Not that it's particularly stiff, but it truly is consistent. The only comparable hide I own is a Route 66 in CXl HH , but it's at least 15 years old and it turned soft as lambskin. This one needs getting used to.
That's why I gave it the Carlos + Navetsea threatment, basically wearing it and moving in it as much as i can.
As a matter of fact, it is obviously tailored for maximum mobility, and it's amazing how you can move your arms in any direction without the body moving . But you have to adapt to the cut, especially the massive sleeves. Do they need to be so roomy in the biceps area?
Anyway, I'm starting to get used to it. I read here and there some stories about made to measure orders that were not always immediately satisfactory. The answer from Langlitz was to take some time to get used to the jacket. I believe that time is a very important factor in this case.
Below are a few pics. The color is kind of unusual: grey with a marble effect that I tried to heighten by pushing the contrast in Lightroom. Otherwise, the leather is starting to show some very strong grain and character in places. I think I'm getting addicted to it.

I was so sad when it became apparent that the waist was too narrow for me, but I am glad to see it worked out well for you. That really is one of the more unique Langlitz Cascades I've seen, and it's fantastic. Looks like you scored a keeper.

Great pictures, that leather looks unreal.

Roughly one year in this Sheene. This was my first leather jacket, now part of a larger stable thanks to this forum. Really love this simple jacket, and can't wait to keep beating it around. I posted a few more evo photos in the original thread I made for this jacket.

My GF wearing my (well hers now...) vintage Swedish Motorjacka:

These are really cool. This is a size 48 and is a tiny bit small for me, i might look for a size 50 for myself.
Thanks @torfjord.

No problem at all, happy to help. Too bad it didn’t work out for you, but it looks like a great fit for your girlfriend!
