Thanks! The item I’m looking at is above the $800 cap.

Has anyone in the US made any purchases of new clothing from Canada recently? I’m wondering what the current duty charges are. I tried to google it, but couldn’t find a decent answer.

I know @ABCD used a vintage shearling to have a collar made. I’m curious if anyone has worked with a furrier to add a lining to a parka. I’d assume you’d need to have quite a bit of wiggle room inside the jacket to do that.

Great kit! Where are the boots and jacket from?

That’s a great jacket! Which leather is that?

Some new winter boots: The Crispi Nevada GTX. I think they’re substantial enough to hold up with a hefty leather jacket.

@Mrfrown Are you ever going to offer one WITHOUT the throat latch?

The final order has it listed as black full aniline shinki horsehide. The initial order said vegetable/pigment, but I think we changed it.

That chest width seems narrow for the sleeve length.

But what if they came in suede…?

https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/favorite-cafe-racer.114100/ What are the fit implications of a straight yoke, like this one on @MrProper ‘s Aero J-100? It seems like a curved one is more anatomical, and a straight seem would the limit the flex a single piece of leather would have.

You got one? Awesome! Every time I see a jacket I’d like, it ends up in your collection!

Did you end up keeping either of the Schotts?
