Schott Leather Goods

I really like Schott jackets but , unfortunately, I don't fit well into their Large or Xl. I've got longer arms and their jacket sleeves tend to be a bit on the shorter side. Their models that are sized in 40, 42, 44 etc can be ordered in "long" sizes which is great. Unfortunately, only a few models are made now in those sizes. I think for the price, they are great jackets and I wish I could fit into them as there are lots of great ones on the 2nd hand market.

Found time to visit their Canal Street store when I was in New York (no time for Self Edge sadly). I went in set on buying a 613, but it barely reached my navel. Luckily 118L fit better

I was at Schott yesterday and found this beauty. Reminded me of the MRMF. Made with Horween CXL. I’ve never been a double rider guy, but I can’t get this one out of my head.
Curious if anyone bought it, and has broken it in?
-
New pickup! This one is in a black cherry/burgundy horsehide from Horween. Much softer than I expected.

Sold that Schott I posted a while back. Ended up finding a newer model (519?) that fits a little longer in the body, but similar in the shoulders and arms. Quality is great, but realizing I just really don’t need that much thick leather on a jacket. Would definitely wear it more if I was riding with it!

@Go-For-Chill I think this is the vibe I am looking for in a leather jacket. What style or model is this one?
-
Anybody have experience with the “duke”370? I’m looking for fit details. How is Schott with measurement consistency?

I went to Schott’s NYC showroom a couple weeks ago and spent way too long trying on about every model they had. I tried most of them in two sizes. Just from that experience I’d say their sizing consistency was solid, specially for leather garments. Larges all fit the same, even across different models. Obviously just anecdotal, but I left the store with a whole new appreciation for the quality of their jackets.

@Go-For-Chill awesome, wish I had the same opportunity. Thanks, that’s helpful.
I’m on the fence between a medium and large. Would like to have room for a standard weight hoodie or uhf underneath but otherwise slim fit jacket. It seems like a large would be in order. It’s just tricky to tell how the sleeve or pits would fit based on pics without measurements

This is Morgan’s gift this year. Schott x Imogene collab. Beautiful rough out (pics don’t do it justice) and built like a tank. Also, I’m rather jealous that neither of my leather jackets smell even close to this!

@WhiskeySandwich really like the style of that jacket.
-
@Go-For-Chill great pickup! Do you have some fit pics of this beauty?
-
@Mizmazzle tell Morgan she has great taste and an excellent husband.

@jordanscollected thanks home slice!

Got this in and really like it but it’s got some scratches (well scratches would be fine but these are on the verge of being called cuts) on the left chest panel. I’m going to exchange but I’m not so sure about the fit. The torso is a bit over the provided (23.5) measurements with a 25” pit to pit and about a 23” sweep. I’m a little more used to higher arm holes too. Thoughts on the Large?

@WhiskeySandwich looks like you nailed the fit, dude. Shoulders are spot on and sleeve length looks perfect too. The back length is also in the sweet spot for my own personal tastes.
Looks like you can rock it with a tee and still zip it up with a hoodie underneath too.It’s all about mobility and comfort though too. How are those factors?
