The super cool MOTO LEATHER JACKET club!

[megt10]

Wow meg, it took you a while to see the pooch happening. I should get my act together!

Well prior to menopause I weighed 108 lbs at 5'7" so was pretty thin.

 

[megt10]

yes yes of course it's possible
and i did it myself






haven't had a chance to wear it outside but will take pic as soon as i take her out




i did it myself


here's the pics of where i open the seam, just cut the threads carefully

and the pic of the jacket with the shoulder pad off

and the pic of how thick the pads are

Wow, brave girl

I remove shoulder pads from everything since I have a short neck and square shoulders but I never thought to remove them from the bal jacket.

I do too but it never occurred to me either. Hmmm.

Black on black from Japan is here. It is beyond scrumptious. Leather is soft as butter. But the best news of the day is that I finally found my bordeaux (at least I think it's bordeaux). Will post pics of that one when that arrives.

Fantastic fit, congrats.

no..no mod shots yet, I seem to have a big tummy at the mo which I need to get rid of before I am really comfortable wearing it
I did think she looked amazing in the sun yesterday tho and I had to take a pic!

Beautiful.

You are so lucky! I have had a winter of 10 and 20 and too much snow to keep track!! It was a really bad winter in many places this year on the East Coast. We were supposed to escape winter in the Cayman Islands two weeks ago but our flight to Charlotte was cancelled! I though for sure we were safe booking into Charlotte. It was 2 degrees this morning here and heated up to 20!

Oh that sucks. I am so sorry.

My militaire is the smallest of my 36s

pretty normal i think, mine is a 38 and it's definitely bigger than my 36s.

Thanks for your help ladies

Interesting take on the biker jacket. Unlikely I'll be investing in this shape as I don't think peplum leather jackets would make it to the timeless classic lists, but interesting nevertheless.

Would be cute without the peplum, but still with a cropped body

Oh what else did your moto ask for? You need to be careful with these motos once they start asking for Hermes there is no turning back.
