Where can I find this jacket?

[MickyO]

I'm looking to buy my first ever leather jacket. The image in the link below shows what my preference would be, but I'm clueless as to where to find such a jacket or even what the style and cut is called (motorcycle jacket?). I'd appreciate if someone could direct me to the right place. Thanks!

there are a lot of good places to get leather jackets. the good ones are expensive new. Leather jackets are one area where it's almost better to look used than new, less expensive and get better with wear.

Best bet is to go on eBay and look up designers such as Andrew Marc, Schott, etc. They make some bomber/motorcycle'ish jackets (I like the distressed/burnished styled leathers)

You could also check out the The Fedora Lounge, that forum has a lot of aficionados

Thanks, Kmarizo. Would you have any idea what that specific style is called? It doesn't seem to be a regular biker jacket (see the shoulders).
