I've wanted this jacket for as long as I can remember, but living in TX it's hard to justify. I finally said Eff'it and ordered it as my 50th Bday present to myself... and I couldn't be happier!
This thing fits like a glove fresh out of the package, so I anticipate it to break in nicely! So far the construction seems solid, all the stitching is well done and no loose parts/threads anywhere. The zippers and snaps are sturdy and no part of this jacket feels cheap.
Pay attention to the sizing chart and always check your own measurements to be sure. (I'm glad I checked!) Also, the fleece torso only liner zips in and out which makes the jacket more viable depending on where you live.
All in all I couldn't be happier with this jacket, and the personalized service from The Alley was great. If I ever buy another leather in my lifetime, it'll be from The Alley Chicago.
