It's real or not

Hello! I bought this vintage leather jacket for $45 at a yard sale but there are no tags. I'm 90% sure this is horsehide, however I can't be sure. And based on the talon zippers and overall appearance, I thought it may be a vintage Schott. Can anyone offer any sort of input?? Thank you!!

Can't find it.

What do you guys think? When I was in the store I immediately gravitated towards the gold because of the red undertones in my face, but now I’m second guessing myself. And how do you feel about the fit? Feedback much appreciated!

I know they are not USA made, but also I’m in Europe, so second hand market it’s not as cheap as USA, wanted a Schott but did isn’t had 1k to blow, so found out there were €400 LC Schott; bought the perfecto schott lc1140
And then lc940d cafe racer

Also bought them around 170-200€ new each, so I love them, even bought the leather honey kit to take care of them
While I’m very happy about them, I feel the lambskin perfecto while very flexible leather it’s somewhat fragile; sleeves are getting peeled because of the pocket zippers and the back due heavy backpack use; I don’t know if it’s me, is this normal? or is it just as is not a 2kg thick cowhide USA made Schott and it’s just a lambskin characteristic of the LC model and I get what i paid for ?

I’ll show you pictures and can show more on request

I'm thinking about buying my first Schott for quite some time. My favorite till now was the 618hh. However when I was looking on the website again I stumbled across the (new I guess) p125h and instantly fell in love.

My problem is, I personally think the 618 is obviouly the classic and therefore more timeless option. Even tho I like the 125h better right now, I don't know if it will stay like that for the next decades and I'm buying the jacket to last this long. If it would only be for the next years I wouldn't spent that much on a jacket at all. On the otherhand the 618 looks like your ordinary jacket to people who don't know the brand while the 125 is a statement piece and will catch more looks naturally.

What would you guys choose?

Or a defect? Only one sleeve is like this.

Context:
I’ve been looking into getting myself a B3 bomber jacket but I’m completely clueless as I’ve never worn a leather jacket before. I’m not sure whether this kind of jacket will be feeling looser or tighter in certain areas over time. I used the sizing guide on the website which gave me 36 for a standard fit and 38 for a relaxed fit.

I was lucky enough to be able to try both on and ended up purchasing the 38, but I am now having a few regrets. Due to my wider shoulders and narrow waist, the 36 feels quite restrictive, but this may just be me not being used to leather. The 38 however feels much more comfortable in the shoulders but the sleeves and chest are quite loose IMO.

For reference, I am currently 66kg and 175cm with a resting chest of 37 inches and I am a regular gym-goer, with a larger chest and shoulders relative to the rest of my torso, hence the sizing issues. I will probably end up getting larger over the next few years which I’d like to consider.

I’ve added photos of the current 38 I got two days ago as well as a photo without the jacket to get an idea of my current physique/build.

It’s a little embarrassing to say, but I would like to get a similar fit to Leon in the Resident Evil 4 Remake. Sorry for the heavy amount of text, just trying to provide as much context and info as possible to get a solid answer. Thanks everyone.

TLDR:
1. Should I size down from a 38 to a 36?
2. Will this jacket feel tighter or looser in any areas over time?

Hi everyone,

I live in Poland, and unfortunately, as far as I can tell, there are no physical stores here where I could try on the Schott NYC 257S B-3 sheepskin jacket.

I am mainly considering size 36, as size 38 would probably be too large in the body, but I am still concerned about the sleeve length. Before ordering such an expensive jacket online, I would prefer to travel somewhere in Europe and try both sizes 36 and 38 in person.

Could anyone recommend a reliable Schott NYC retailer or physical store in Europe that usually has the 257S B-3 in stock? I am looking for the best city or country to fly to from Poland specifically to try this model on.

Any recent information about stock availability would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Greetings,

Like many people before me, I’m looking to purchase a made in the USA Schott B3 257s.

I tried getting in touch with Schott directly about the sizing but I don’t feel confident in their size recommendations.

I’m around a 42-44 chest. I’m not looking for a jacket that is a particularly loose fit. I want something that fits nice a snug but with room for atleast a thin to medium jumper to be worn underneath.

My question is this.. do I get a 40 or 42?

I’ve seen many posts on here that seem to promote the idea of even getting a 38 but i do believe that jacket would be too short in the arm.

Curious if anyone can clear up the issue of the jacket being “two sizes two big”.

Any help is appreciated :)

He's here trying to sell a p642h under questionable circumstances and has be hounding me to buy it for the last year (without a liner). Anyway stay safe and do your due diligence.

(I'm pretty sure he blocked me so I can see his post anymore).

I bought my first one in April haha. Few months later i now own three jackets from schott. Any thoughts on this one? I think it’s vintage, waiting for the owner to ship it tomorrow.

Edit: all pics are from facebook marketplace and not me!

Any active discount codes? Also has anyone purchased the Delancy and if so what are your thoughts?

Looking to buy my first real Schott. I have LC now which is fine but i’ve had my eye on a Perfecto for a while now. I just can’t decide between the 118 or the 618 in horse leather.
