I tried this on today.
The perfect leather jacket that I've been looking for.

Costs $1800.

I have a good budget, just not that good.

Any similar good quality bomber leather jackets out there?

save
spend some time working towards it
make it yours
it's hard to justify it, but it'll be extremely rewarding once you can pay for it
it's not out of your reach, anon

I'd be torn between hating myself for spending so much on one item, and loving the buy for how great it felt.

I always think that there's bound to be a similar, just as good buy out there.

I live in a country with just the big brands out there so not much choice.

Going to L O N D O N in two weeks so was hoping to check out stuff there and getting some pointers from londonbros

So what brands should I look for?

Like I said here >>11656481, choices are somewhat limited where I live but going to London in a few days.

all saints has decent entry level leather
still quite expensive, but you have to pay lots for good leather.

Can you actually go into luxury stores and try stuff on? Is there a procedure or a screening for anything. Will you get turned away if you aren't rich looking?

>Can you actually go into luxury stores and try stuff on?
Yes. If you're unsure about something, just ask one of the assistants for help (that's what they're there for). Be polite and if you're gonna take up a lot of their time without necessarily making a purchase, be up front about it, but for the most part you'll be fine.

>Will you get turned away if you aren't rich looking?
Almost never. If you are, the attendants are cunts, or the place thinks it's more upmarket than it actually is.

Yah I'll definitely check that store out. Saw their website, they got some interesting pieces, but I'll have to try them in person.

Any other places I should pay a visit that might have similar bomber leather jackets?

>>11656759
A dark brown leather jacket I got from Baracuta. Around £550 if I remember correctly.

And to answer the second question: No I don't regret it. This piece is much more expensive though and I'll get less use out of it I suppose.
But I get what you're getting at. I do have a bit more disposable income than when I did back with the Barracuta jacket though.

>>11656474
Is Burberry's quality really suspect?
Or are you just being harsh because they're a mainstream global brand and only rich plebs buy it?
Genuinely curious.

No, but I'm probably going back there this upcoming week.
Just to take a second look.
Either way, I think I'll wait till I get to London and check out other stores before I buy it.
