“Patient X” Leather Coat (Original Model)

Appearance: The X-Files, episode "Patient X" (5X13), which premiered on the Fox network on March 1, 1998. Appears also in “The Red and the Black” (5X14) and “The End” (5X20).

Worn by character: Alex Krycek

Played by actor: Nicholas Lea

Acquired: January 2025

Item information: This leather coat / jacket is not a reproduction. It's the actual original model of Alex Krycek’s leather jacket worn in the episodes listed above. Not the screen-used garment, but the exact same model. Manufactured probably in the mid- to late-1990s, acquired by me in January 2025. In the photos is a size L, but I also own an XL and two M versions of the same coat. I'm quite pleased to have found these. The X-Files aside, they're among my favorite garments.
