BEST MOTO JACKET YOU CAN BUY

Published: Sat, 9/14/2024 by Anwar

Absolutely love this jacket. Schott staff were very helpful in determining the right size.

I've received more compliments for this jacket in just a few weeks than any other piece of clothing I've ever owned.

Highly recommend!!!

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION

First off, most important tip for everyone choosing a jacket on this website: the sizing here is spot on. My exact measures translated into a jacket that fits like a glove.

It is beautiful, shiny out of the box and stiff as hell, but its a jacket that needs to be broken in.

I bought this mainly to wear while riding, and it inspires a lot of confidence. Could not be happier.

GREAT JACKET!

This is my first Schott 618 HH and I love it so far. I've had it a week and yes it's still stiff after wearing it every day, around the house, even doing light work outs to break it in. On the train to NY, I got several compliments. It's heavy, shiny and🔥🔥🔥🔥

Buy it true to size. They recommend going up a size but it fits perfectly with my slim frame. I'm a 34 and I couldn't be happier with how it fits. The pictures don't do it justice, the deep black will take your breath away. Badass all the way. No wonder rockstars chose this jacket! The craftsmanship is unparalleled. Thank you Schott!

CONSISTENCY

Published: Tue, 11/7/2023 by Bernardo

Quality of the product overall is amazing.
I had previously gotten the size 38, but it felt a little too large in the back (I’m 1,83m tall and weigh 65kg, 36” in chest) and then decided to get the size 36. The fitting is better, but the shoulder lapels are way too large and look disproportionate, it seems as if they use the same length of lapels for all jacket sizes. I now feel indecisive whether to keep a jacket that fits well but makes me look weird on the shoulders or keep a jacket that doesn’t look as trim from the back for my body frame but looks good. Also, shine in both jackets is different. One had a glossy finish without being too shiny (the 38) and the 36 looked almost too shiny, which, if I keep, hope it fades a little bit.

GREAT LEATHER QUALITY AND VALUE

When you want something a bit heavier. Holds you sucre . Makes you feel safe riding. . This jacket has a very sexy cut . Im a perfect 42 … but 44 is the size for me. The leather horse hide has a great shine and breaks in quickly. You’re going to love it for your collection. Excellent workmanship quality and value. For sure years of enjoyment ..

WONDERFUL!

I am about a 41 and got a 40. I'm hoping to get back to my pre-pandemic weight. As it is now, the jacket is fitted. However, I can wear a hoodie underneath and still zip it up. The pockets can't be filled since the jacket hugs my body, but that's fine. The quality is amazing. I'm pretty happy about the sizing.

Two critical comments is the Schott tape was a bit torn as maybe a heavier box was place on top of the Schott box. The tape makes it known the box contains a high-priced item. The second critical comment is the 2 front panels are not exactly the same -- the right seems not as "smooth." However, as the jacket is worn, this difference will probably go away.

I'd like to get the 641HH or another horsehide jacket in the future.

The jacket is even better than on the photos on your page. The quality is outstanding. First I was a bit surprised by the price however when the jacket arrived I understood well that it is definitely worth it. H0rsehide is great, esp for upcoming fall/winter with a black sweater below it should be quite impressive.

LOOKS AWESOME, FEELS AWESOME, MADE OF AWESOME.

One of the best wardrobe decisions I ever made. I'd been on the fence about getting a classic biker jacket for years, but when I saw this one, I knew it was mine. The leather is soft, crisp, shines impeccably but is sturdy, tough and rigid. The embellishments pop visually and are made to hold up. I recently got the collar accessory and can't decide if I like it traditional, or if I like to embellish my embellishments (the answer is both). To top it all off, it seems to be working some magic on the ladies too. I get lots of glances, smiles, and compliments. I'm not telling you that last part to try and impress you, I'm telling you because of how impressed I am by the people at Schott NYC. It's everything I ever wanted from one of these jackets and more.
