Best place to buy a leather jacket?

I'm looking for a leather jacket.  I don't want the motorcycle jacket, I want the Bomber type.  Where's a good place to buy these?  I don't mind paying a little extra for quality, within reason.

Wilson's I think has all types.  Are you looking for something you can get your hands on tomorrow or mail order?

I'm looking for something I can try on before I buy.

I thought we had a Wilson's in Tulsa.  Apparently not.  Closest one is the new outlet mall out near I-40 and Council Road in OKC.  Don't know where else to tell you to look if you are looking for bomber style.  You might try some of the vintage clothing or consignment shops if you are looking for something unique.

I remember having one inside Woodland Hills mall, lower level east side.  I bought a summer cut leather jacket there just out of high school (mid/late eighties).  Sad to hear it is no longer.

EDIT:  Guess it closed after Christmas of 2007...

That's where we buy our leather goods (waiting for the jokes).
Someone get Hoss a pacifier.

The Wilson's I shop is at the Tanger outlet in Branson. GREAT deals on Black Friday.

I just heard a radio spot for The Pinpoint Resource at The Farm and they specifically mentioned leather bomber jackets.

Have some suits from Pinpoint.  Excellent quality (at least for suits) and service has always been great.  If they don't have exactly what your looking for, they'll bring it in.

Wilson's does tend to have excellent sales.  The website costs change almost daily.

Good dress shirts, too.
