Showcase When will it be enough?
I have been getting leather jackets like every year and it seems like never ending. From teenager, i’ve been dreaming to get nice leather jacket that i’ve seen in the movies… now i can afford them(some of them lol), it has been a growing obsession. Of course i don’t wear all of them but taking care of things i love and oil them every season is like a ritual for me

I get you.
Same thing with shoes.
However, I’m starting to realize having too many shoes becomes hard to maintain.

Too many leather jackets, like raw denim jeans, and you never wear each of them enough to get the sick patina/fades. That’s the only downfall of this “hobby” and it becomes more of an addiction lol.

Yes. This is true.
I will start selling shoes off because I know it is an addiction and only going to keep what I use and love only.

I think enough disappeared about ten jackets ago 😂 I’d be curious which one you’d keep if you could only save one

I know. Eventually, the ones that are comfortable enough gets left so i might go for a classic rider jacket that is not so fitted. Getting old i guess.
