Hello,

So, this is the deal.

I am looking for a custom made leather jacket. Or, well, a leather jacket in general I guess, but I am having trouble finding the (slim) fit that I like so I have figured I might need to have one custom made.

Does anyone know where I can find this?

I'm thinking Marikina, but I have also heard someone mentioned a place that specialized in winter clothing in Cartimar, Pasay. Other places that comes to mind is any of those leather shops in Quiapo but I am not sure.

Greatful for any advice as to where I can continue my quest.

/Daniel

If you plan to wear it there in Manila, mukhang papawisin ka dahil ang init naman dyan. Leather is animal's hide ---and used for covering an animals body. Why not try pleather instead....it has the look of leather but not the warmness and stuffiness of leather. And of crse, much cheaper.

I'm not an advocate of people who uses animal skins as part of their wardrobe.

Plus I find it tacky specially if you'll use in in Manila.

Im seeing a lot of custom tailors around Recto/Quiapo Area (but mostly jeans tailors) ... Are these any good?

wearing a leather jacket sa pinas weather (hot and humid), doesnt make sense.

^ It does if you work in an office with subzero temperature. ;) I leave mine here at the office since it's the only place I can wear it anyway.
