Review: Angel Jackets' Captain America Leather Jacket

If you haven't heard of Angel Jackets, you may want to just head over to their website before going any further.

Angel Jackets specializes in producing high quality leather jackets based on costumes seen in popular films and even has a replicas of Daniel Craig's James Bond tuxedo and Bane's fur coat available. The prices don't make the products readily available to just anybody but you get what you pay for.

Angel Jackets sent their Captain America jacket, one which matches the suit seen in, to the ComicBook.com office so that we could try it on and see how we feel about it. Fact is, the leather jacket is great for any Captain America fan, especially those who go out for a motorcycle ride every now and then.

After you zip the jacket up and realize how well it fits, Captain America's trademark star from the from of his suit locks into place with velcro over the zipper. Parts of the jacket, especially around your core, are a little stiff at first as the thick leather takes some breaking in, but it does fit comfortably (and comes in several different sizes).

On the shoulders of the jacket are Avengers logos. They may not exactly be replicas of the logo seen in the film, but their sewn nicely and get the point across, sitting atop different layers of leather which impressively match up with Cap's suit.

Clocking in at $129, some may be a little understandably hesitant to pull the trigger on a purchase but aside from a head to toe costume, this jacket will make you look and feel a lot like Captain America. Now, that doesn't mean you should go out and take on Iron Man and try to fight someone in traffic, but you'll definitely be turning some heads walking around in these threads.

Check out some photos of the jacket in the gallery below.
