    https://jp.mercari.com/item/m30456449246 Definitely more of a "find", I think Mushroom Vintage has (or had) a similar one in much better condition around the same price The iconic Hercules!

    Waiting Too Long ruining excitement?

    They look great, I've seen some awful QC coming out of Wesco's MTO shop so I decided to get an in stock pair instead, glad I did since I had to exchange sizes as well, can't imagine waiting that long just to need a remake.

    Easiest one to get to within Tokyo is General Garden Americaya in Ueno, that being said, they carry limited stock, they may still have their store's custom model the "Highwayman" if you go soon, they recently restocked in both brown and black, but brown usually goes very quickly. The store that...

    https://www.motostyle.jp/collections/jacket Saw these in their Aoyama store, quite nice, but not a fan of the styling so I didn't look at them too closely. I'm a big fan of their boots and shoes though, probably will pick something up soon, their boots are made by a separate company and I...

    What is this forums most popular brand and jacket?

    One thing I can definitely attribute to this forum is my love for Vanson. Never much interest in it before but easily my favourite jacket now. I bought it as a first dip/intro to leather jackets and I'm finding topping it is a much more daunting task than I originally anticipated!

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I also tried on the J-100, that one looked great, wider shoulders that sit just right of my shoulders so I don't get so much of the sleeve overhanging and curving down the delts, also slim throughout the waist. Unfortunately no J-24 in my size to try on, but I think those two are the flagships...

    Recommended blogs & resources to learn about leather jackets

    I think you may be fixating too much on the leather, materials, finish, etc. too much. What you need to learn first and foremost is what fit you desire, what works for your body, comfort, etc. That is what makes a leather jacket look good. I've tried many high-end Japanese brands while I was...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Same issue I had with the Real McCoys Buco JH-1, looked like crap on me, way too narrow shoulders, chest is tight and the hem is wide. To me it feels like 2 different jackets that somehow fused together. Doesn't look great on their own model either I reckon, I like wide shoulders and strong...

    Woah, that's amazing, confirms what I suspected, the trim on the hem are all zipper tracks! Haven't seen anything like it, cool!
