Well I'm in the market for a new jacket as my 30 year old Schott 141 seems to have shrunk. I like the look of Legendarys own jackets but the Hillsde USA stuff looks good too. Comments and opinions welcome. Thanks.

 

Why not stick with Schott? I like mine. It's a early 90s Perfecto and mine is well worn but hasn't shrank. Yet.

 

I can only speak to Hillside. I have a Hillside Horsehide Vest. The quality is beyond amazing. You simply cannot buy better. That being said, you really can't go wrong with either brand. I think you will probably save money with Hillside, and still get the best money can buy.

 

I have two Schott jackets. I thought Legendary stuff was made by Schott. I also have a Hillside vest. All of them are very good quality. Go with the design you like.

 

I love my old Schott jacket,but I've tried on the new version and the fit on me just isn't the same.Plus their prices have gone up dramatically in the last few years. I want an American made jacket and both Legendary and Hillside are made here,plus they offer a lot for your money.

 

Did you look at USA made Fox Creek Leather? Heaviest cow hide. Custom made. Lifetime guaranty..
Great value

 

Dig my Legendary Jacket!

 

I have had a hillside jacket for years no regrets

 

Now that your Schott has shrunk, what size to you think it is now? As me being a guy with $ that has shrunk as well and could be in the market ?

 

Sorry,oldest son has already put a claim on it.
