About this leather: Our naked cowhide leather is a premium top grain cowhide that combines comfort and durability. The leather boasts a naturally tight open pore structure that ensures a softer touch and superior comfort. Its weight and warmth are on par with deluxe heavy steerhide. The full aniline, drum dyed process preserves the leather’s texture, enhancing its natural grain with a subtle, semi-matte finish. It is then vacuum dried (instead of toggle dried) that leads to a slightly stiffer result as the fibers are not stretched and softened. The leather is designed to age gracefully and expand its characteristics over time.
Stiffness: Medium
Weight: 3-3.5oz
Origin: US Domestic Raw Material, Tanned in Mexico

SUPERLATIVE BIKE JACKET
Superior workmanship on the classic biker jacket. Good quality leather that fits me perfectly. I went for a 118 Perfecto because it catered for the fuller figure in length and girth. Sizing guide was spot on, but to double cycle I messaged Schott and got an immediate reply, with sizing guide, that confirmed my size choice. The jacket exceeded my expectations and I specially recommend this outstanding garment.

THE BEST MOTORCYCLE JACKET
Very well made and Made in the USA. Great quality leather and materials. I recommend ordering one size up if you wear a sweater or a sweatshirt. If you are not a motorcycle rider, order "R" for the sleeves - otherwise the sleeves could be too long. Don't forget to occasionally condition your new jacket with "Otter Wax" leather oil, available online at Schott NYC.
MY 118
I ordered my 118 jacket on the website on a weekend. Monday I got an email that it was on it's way. It came Wednesday afternoon. Unfortunately I ordered a size too small. I went on the website and followed the instructions for an exchange and sent the jacket in on the next day a Thursday. I got an email Monday afternoon that my new jacket was on the way.. It arrived Wednesday. This one fit perfectly and it is amazing. The leather looks fantastic and the craftsmanship is perfect. I'll be wearing this jacket on many motorcycle rides for years to come. Thanks Schott for a great jacket and fantastic service.
LONG TIME COMING
I have waited a long time to buy this jacket(not really comfotable buying stuff that needs to be fitted on line). It is every thing that I hoped for. The fit, the feel, the weight are great. There was no break in, it felt like I had, had it for years
I TAKIN’ THIS JACKET WITH ME TO THE AFTERLIFE!
I suspect that most people read these reviews for sizing info/experiences, for the most part. The question of quality and value for money spent is really a non-question when it comes to Schott so I don't feel the need to address that. Purchasing clothing online can be dicey in regard to sizing and I for one, spent a lot of time reading these reviews looking for greater insight before I clicked the ‘Place Order’ button. Hopefully my 2 cents can help someone out. I am 55, 6’ 1” tall. Average build tending toward the slim side with a slightly long
torso and a 42 inch chest/36 inch waist, 200 lbs.
The 42 regular 118 is a perfect fit in that when I sit on the bike, the jacket does not bunch up in the front nor does it ride up too high in the back. The sleeve length is right on, when reaching for the handlebars.
I considered buying the 42 long because of my longish torso but I am glad I didn't. Keep in mind that the Perfectos are riding jackets and meant to fall higher on the waist than a standard jacket. Ok, and I gotta say it, the quality is amazing! HaHa.
Stay safe fellow riders.
JUST PERFECT
I ordered the Style 118 jacket in the long version to be shipped to Germany. The shipment by Fedex arrived within one week. I used the advise on the size by providing my lenghts, weight, ... and followed the resut - perfect fit. The look and feel of this product is just pefect. Thanks for making such a high class product.
BEAUTIFUL!
This jacket is awesome; there really isn't much else to say that others have not. I'm 5'11, with a 42-43 inch chest. I first went with a 42, and it fit near perfect. But I always wear an armored shirt underneath any jackets with no armor, and when I put that on, it was too cramped, particularly in the shoulders (I have wide shoulders). So I went up to a 44, and although it's a bit boxy, it works much better with the armored shirt. And the waist belt cinches things up nicely around the waist.
The details, quality, and smell of the jacket are amazing.
A PERFECTO DAY
Let me begin by stating that I initially had my eye on the 618 Horsehide jacket. Going by the fit estimator, I would have required a size 48 regular. I love the classic fit of this jacket but after much research, I concluded that the 118 size 46 regular, with its more contemporary fit, would be a safer bet. I made the plunge last Tuesday, and probably couldn't have picked a worse week to purchase it! Most of North America was experiencing awful wintry weather, ranging from frigid temps, mountains of snow and freezing rain. Here on the west coast of Canada was no exception, and we got 40 cm of snow followed by freezing rain. After much hand wringing, the jacket finally arrived today, some 5 days late. When the FedEx person handed me the package, my heart sank! The box was seriously damaged, and I immediately thought, "Great, now I don't even have the intact, original packaging to return the jacket. If I sound like a 'glass half empty' kinda guy, let me explain. My experience with online jacket purchases has been nothing short of abysmal. I'm 60 years old, 6'2", 250lbs, with a 46" chest and broad shoulders. I have always had a fairly athletic physique, but have noticed a bit more abdominal girth as of late(I'm hoping to lose this by working out more). .I do have longer legs with an average-sized torso. More than half my online purchases have resulted in deep disappointment and I usually end up having to return the jackets due to poor fit...I was already preparing myself for further disappointment with the 118. When I opened the box, I found the jacket in perfect condition. I immediately knew this was a quality piece...the smell of the leather, the heft and stiffness of the jacket and the quality of the leather were evident. This was no pebbly-grained knock-off from Pakistan! As I put one arm and then the other through the sleeves, I felt right off that it was going to fit. The shoulders had just the right amount of room, the arm length was perfect with the cuffs sitting just below my wrists, and the body of the jacket had just enough space to allow me to wear the jacket over a light hoody. The back length was a tad on the short side, sitting just at the top of my beltline, but I don't mind this because I actually prefer the length on the shorter side. I probably could've gotten away with a long size, but I'm quite happy with it as is. My only complaint is that the back of the jacket does tend to flare out a bit at the bottom, but I'm hoping that when it gets fully broken-in this will disappear. This is not noticeable when the jacket is zipped up, but as I will be wearing it more as a casual jacket, it will be unzipped most of the time. Overall, I'm extremely happy with the 118, the fit is true to my size, and the quality is second to none! When I wore it to go gas up the car today, the store clerk remarked..."nice jacket, chief!", so yes, I've already had my first compliment! It certainly is a head-turner and delivers just the right amount of 'mojo'... I'm sure when it gets truly broken-in will look even better! I still have my eye on the 618HH, and after reviewing the measurements Schott sent me, I think it will fit me just fine, so another Schott purchase might be in my future!
