BRANDSLOCK Men's Genuine Leather Bomber Jacket - B3 Shearling Aviator Flying Jacket for Winter Warmth, Motorcycle Riding & Outdoor Adventures | Perfect for Cold Weather, Biker Style & Casual Wear

I am 218lbs and 5’9” and have a stocky build. I’ve been wanting a real shearling bomber jacket for twenty years now. I lived in southern Louisiana and Southwest Texas up to a few weeks ago and a jacket like this would have never been worn except for maybe 2-3 days a year. With every store and house trying to keep their spaces at about 78 degrees I rarely even bothered wearing a coat at all unless I was going to be outside for extended periods just sitting around. I’ve moved North and splurged on this coat. Now that it is in my hands, I’ll admit You can’t really beat the quality of this shearling/Sherpa sheepskin bomber jacket for the price. Made in Uruguay of real sheepskin with the fur side intact and sewn to the inside for warmth. Leather is soft and supple and about 2mm thick. Runs very large, I tend to run on the upper side of large and I was swimming in this. It does have a smell, it smells like sheep, not strong, but there and will wear off with use. There are a few cosmetic blemishes that I’m sure would disappear with use as well. I photographed them. The white line is the cut edge of the leather where they tried to sew the edge of the fur around to make the bottom seam. Another photo shows where there is slight gapping up at the collar when the collar is rolled out. Barely noticeable. Pockets are sewn with the fur side away from the hand. When you place your hand in the pocket, you will feel leather, not fur. I photographed this so you can see how they put it together. All in all, it’s a 4.5 star item. I deducted for the white seams.Returning for an exchange to medium.DHL delivered in about a week.Update: After 8 months and getting a chance to wear this jacket for most the winter, I wanted to add my thoughts. Still in love with this jacket. The medium that I received in exchange for the large is form fitting, but has shaped itself to my body after wearing. I have found the jacket to be warm in temps in the single digits and like how I can flip the collar up and buckle it across my jaw and mouth. It keeps the wind out. It also is still comfortable and not too warm in temps in the fifties. I find myself wearing it while shopping the grocery sections in Walmart and not overheating at all. It seems to always be the temp I need it to be. I did add a coating of Leather Honey and it sucked it right in and really made the leather even more beautiful than before. Haven't worn it in heavy rain, but in light rain and heavy snow the moisture runs right off after the treatment.
