It looks comfy...that's about all that's good that I can say about it. The design is woefully generic (probably North American), and it looks like it's built for generally overweight clientele.

It looks like it could take a beating. I am happy with my denim jacket so I never decided to buy a leather one

I'm young and not ready to commit to such a beautiful piece just yet.

Also, any recommendations under $500 CAD?

Non-rider black leather jackets like this look disgusting

This. Real perfectos are expensive AF and I was also looking for an alternative.

It's possible to get faux-leather jackets for under 500 or you can get something that is heavily discounted but made of real leather. The problem is that the fit will usually be generic, and therefore awful. Fit is everything in a leather jacket...if it doesn't fit right, there's no point wearing it (it's very much like a suit). Danier in Canada used to offer jackets for under 500, but they recently went bankrupt...so I have no idea for you. Have you checked The Bay?

>>13105879
The issue with leather 'suiting' someone is that you simply have to try them on to see what suits you. You'll be surprised what works, what doesn't, what colour leather is good for your skintone, etc. But they are expensive, and it's tough to drop the money for one when it's not something you might wear all the time.

>>13105961
Agree and disagree. There are non-rider black leather jackets that look fine...it's just that this one in particular is not the greatest.

>>13105988
There are lots of alternatives, but it's a question of what you're looking for. Are you looking for a style jacket, like one from a 'runway', or are you looking for one that is utilitarian? Are you looking for one that is black, or brown, or white, or blue? Are you looking for one that is long or short, zipper in the center or off center, traditional collar or riders/mandarin collar? These are all considerations, and there's plenty out there.

When did fedoras take over /fa/? People used to rightly point out what a faggot you will appear to be if you wear leather jackets.
