#1 Price, price and price.
#2 Vintages tend to be cut in a boxier 90's denim jacket style, or not tailored at all, for strictly overcoat insulation uses.
#3 There are a lot of fake leather jackets out there. or a couple, like this one from BCBG I seriously eyed, that's partially leather but the undersides of the sleeves are ponte. These partial leather pieces are everywhere.
#4 Creme is not a common color, most people want black or dark brown
#5 Many of the "stylish" leather jackets have too much going on for me. Too many tassels, zippers, buttons, pockets, buckles. Just over stylized.
#6 The jackets I often do find are predictable and don't do much to the classic "moto" look. They don't show much personal style, in my opinion.
But I finally found one! It is quite perfectly me, if a little dainty/frilly, but that is just my kind of thing. It's by Mulberry and I located in for $550 (take into mind any quality leather jacket is going to be upwards of $250). Do I go for it?
