I can say that I’m pretty sure Electric Leather Studio is a one man shop and I can’t say lead times are short but he was 100% spot on in both estimates he gave me. Maybe it’s a Japanese thing, but obviously being one guy there’s still the chance of illness and whatnot.
My pair has black “teacore” Shinki, I can take some pics in the next few days.
It’s basically this one sans the cap toe and contrast stitching as I’m not a fan of those.
I’m toying with the idea of getting this, but three things put me off:
- my girlfriend would probably file for divorce even though we’re not married
- price (how much for a full leather coat, anyone knows?)
- lack of confidence in pulling it off
Does anyone here have this or a similar one?
Sorry, I forgot: I don’t even know if there’s inner pockets, I’ll have to check but tomorrow, everyone is asleep now. I’m not a fan of those as they can add some bulk and I put everything (keys, phone and wallet, everything else -mostly toddler stuff lol- goes in my backpack) in my trouser...
Correct, I was only aware of the older model with the bigger, very 70s collar and when I placed the order I was told there was a newer version of this model (Highway) with a newer collar design, pockets (zippered) and with buttons instead of a zipper.
Actually I wanted the original design but...
Fit is very good, and although I think it would def look better in a softer leather at this stage hopefully it’ll become softer and have some drape in the back/sleeves at some point.
How long (or rather, short) are these in the back?
I have a non-storm rider Lee from the seventies and it’s 21 inches in the back. I love it though but it’s really short.
