Looking for a leather jacket. A basic mfa-tier one, preferably a bomber, nothing even remotely Rick-like. What are brands comparable to Schott in terms of quality? Not necessarily cheaper, but hopefully not more expensive.

Schott is very poor quality. They use crappy genuine leather which is very shitty. I think they use corrected grain. Not to mention their jackets look like shit and fall apart soon.

Okay, just don't use Schott as the standard for quality. Every menswear blog circlejerks over Schott as the standard of quality. Schott jackets are just as bad as fast fashion, don't fall into the "timeless" bullshit.

If you're looking into quality leathers look at designer brands.

Do you ride a motorcycle? Is the answer no? Then you don't need a leather jacket.

People who see you in your leather are going to ask what kind of bike you ride and you're going to get sick of it. Spend your money on something else.

Leather jackets are autistic. They just look awful. Leather jackets are pretty much costume wear. You might as well wear a clown outfit, because no one is going to take you seriously when you wear a leather jacket. You probably think you look like Marlon Brando, but the truth is that you don't. You actually look like a nerd that is trying to look badass when wearing a leather jacket.

My advice: Leather jackets. Dont wear 'em. Why shouldn't you wear them? They look like shit. All. The. Time. Get real. Stop trying to look cool, because you are not cool and you are not a badass. Wear something else that looks good and doesn't make you look stupid.

The truth is, leather jackets never look good. You should never wear a leather jacket. They are pretty much the fedora-level jackets. Let me tell you one thing. You will look autistic when you wear a leather jacket. Again, never wear a leather jacket. They look like shit.

Bandido isn't right in any way shape or form, but take his stance into consideration. Basically, a leather jacket is rather hard to pull off, especially if it has too many unnecessary details, or if you're not that good looking.
Just do what I did, I took my time and waited until something really sweet popped up, I was at a fashion show in Milan last spring and copped a goat-leather designer bomber-ish leather jacket with fantastic quality, I'm not saying I'm a fashion expert but it is a really nice jacket.
My point is don't just go out and look for a "leather jacket", pick carefully, because otherwise you might end up looking like the people in Bandido's posts, there are some really ugly leather jackets out there.
