Do you need this? Maybe not. Will you wear it everyday until you die? Yes. This jacket is so good! Like, really good. That 70’s show. Penny lane. Buttery soft! A few imperfections in the leather - discoloration. It’s hard to see. One small rip in the lining about dime size, by the collar. It fits me perfect and I am a size 10, I also think it would fit more snug on a 12 or more oversized on an 8
