Thanks a lot!

I have a Jofama exactly like the one you have and a Campri in the same style. Best jackets ever made and impressive collection mate!

Thanks a lot mate! It's been a long journey of trials and errors to get this point that they all fit nicely. Oh, that's really cool! The Jofama I have here might even be the best of the bunch (even though I love the Petroffs too). However my answer surely depends of the day and position of the stars. I've been lately tossing an idea of getting a Campri too.. They are such nice looking jackets. However I don't think I need one at the moment, because I already have these. But if I come across with a good deal and right size, who knows ;)

I got my Campri for winter 2013. I remember that back then everyone killed each other to grab a "Moto Cuir" style jacket and this kind of Swedish jackets went totally unnoticed. I bought it for a mere 50€ shipping included on the eBay UK. This one has been patched, badged, repatched and rebadged countless of times and has seen a lot of shows, festivals, parties and skateboarding sessions that although it's still in one piece and in very good condition; it has his signs of age. Nowadays I only use it when I go to skate or stuff like that. And some time ago I bought a mint Jofama exactly like yours that I kept untouched and in pristine condition that I only wear for more formal events/occasions like family meetings. This jackets look very sharp, aggressive and classy at the same time that they can fit for every occasion. I will post these two some day!

He's grown man then! That is a really sweet deal! If I'm correct they haven't rose up in the value that much either, I think you can grab one pretty decent price, especially compared to Jofamas and Petroffs. (Of course not for 50 euros, but if you invest a bit more you can get one) However I'm not sure how often they pop up on the marked, but I've seen them lately. Yeah I think I actually got myself a Moto Cuir in that "boom" which I sold just a few months ago :D Your Campri sounds very much like my "Echtes Leder" which is the one that has paintings and pins and patches. I've also had that one for 10 years and it has been through a lot - I'm kind of surprised that how good of a condition it is since it not really broken from anywhere - mainly the zipper have lost some teeth and some wear can be seen on the leather and inlay, but they are not broken from anywhere which is quite impressive. These jackets were indeed made to last! I've haven't used it that much recently either (because there are not festivals to go........) and I usually sport one of the others since they are in much better shape. Like yours, I bought my Jofama in mint condition - it's still not quite broken in. I use every jacket but it really depends on the occasion like you said. You really should! I'd be interested to see how the campri looks like after all the beating, haha!

I bought a "Motor Cuir" jacket too, that was back in 2012. I was ripped-off by a member on here. The jacket was not in the condition and size stated by the seller. Still it was usable and decided to keep it until I could find a better jacket so I wore it for some months until I found my Campri. Also as I told you before, these jackets were in full hype back then and that somehow annoyed me so I did not wanted to have it anymore. Like your Echtes Leder (killer jackets BTW!) my Campri has lost a few teeth, there's some spots where the leather is slightly scratched and the liner is a bit dirty on the cuffs; but overall it's still in very good condition despite the heavy usage. Definitely a good jacket that was made to last, unlike modern garbage.

I might have some kind of memory that you also had one and it was also uploaded here. Was it with white stripes and shoulders? Shame that it did not fit correct and you got scammed! That always sucks, especially when buying leather jackets. I've had that same problem countless times before I got this situation now. But good that you was able to resell it (?) after all and found perfect replacement. Thanks! Yeah it is a killer one for sure, even though I don't use it as much as I used. But definitely durable - it only has the same "symptoms" as you mentioned your Campri has, so nothing major. Very durable jackets indeed... And still work in progress! I'm waiting for my GF to paint some Running Wild stuff for the back between the Pagan Altar and Sortilege logos. Only time will tell when that will happen, haha! In the meantime I'll give some love to the other ones!

You have a great memory my friend!! Yes it was this one, black with white shoulders and stripes on the sleeves. I still have pictures of it, with the patches I sewed and stuff. And funnily enough, the jacket is still posted on here by the previous owner. I will PM you with more details. At the end I sold the jacket to a very good friend of mine (southerncrossripper on here) for a few bucks, and he still has it but I think he hasn't used it in ages.

kertalaaki on Fri, 17/09/2021 - 17:11

Haha, so it was that! Cool! Can't believe that I still remembered that. I guess it's because I was very active back then and the jackets appearance just stuck in my mind. Oh I see. I will check the PM you sent soon!

I like how the pics turn out! From big to small haha!

kertalaaki on Sat, 11/03/2023 - 11:55

Thanks! I should take a new picture since the ligthning was pretty bad here, makes the picture look like blue! We'll see if I put patches on the "Pagan Altar" petroff and do a new update after that. Actually the Jofamas / Echter are from small to big, the picture just makes it look like they are from big to small. Petroff's are all roughy very same size, but the one on the top is more lighweight, and it sits differently compared to the other 2, which are more thick!

How do the Jofama’s fit? I found one overseas but I’m not sure if they fit baggy or slim. Thanks!

kertalaaki on Sat, 30/09/2023 - 18:22

Sorry for the late answer! The Jofamas fit quite slim on the shoulders, but other than that they're quite "normal" what it comes to leather jackets. The Petroffs are more "baggy" instead, but they are shorter in length.
