    Golden Bear via Chigaco?

    When I saw this CHP from Male Hide Leathers Chicago on Depop I was pretty certain from the coin pocket that it was a rebadged Golden Bear. After all, it seems fairly well documented that Als and other makers have been rebadged for various SF special interest retailers, so why not one in Chicago...

    Quick toilet selfie of a glorious mystery (Golden Bear-ish?) CHP that just arrived at my workplace. Took a gamble on the size and it paid off! May give it its own thread once I’ve taken some proper pictures.

    James Grose Manila (Lighting/Cyclone style) black HH 36 £195

    James Grose Manila, which is like a Cyclone with Lightning pockets. Made in England for the Japanese market, it's cut accordingly, out of a midweight tumbled horsehide that is remarkably soft and supple--definite luxe rather than armour vibes. It’s barely worn, however, there is a small repair...

    Damn, I was hoping you’d have found an avant-garde designer who makes a stripped-back yet elevated version out of Italian horsethigh! Will let you know if I find anything.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    It’s funny because conventional wisdom has it that Rivetts/Highwayman had poor leather quality. I wonder if it’s more a case of inconsistent quality? I’ve been eyeing various British 70s Lewis-a-likes lately (Interstate, Kett, Dobbs, Wolf, TT), and it’s striking how differently the hide is...

    Sharp! Are those leather fingerless gloves? I love mine but they aren’t great quality (AliExpress purchase). Do you have any higher end recommendations?

    Any brits done the zenmarket thing (or equivalent) on jackets from Japan? All the recent C2s and Model E’s have me hankering for a Vanson but I cannot for the life of me wrap my head around the landed costs to uk (and if it is worth getting a couple of jackets at once)…

    This is a subjective thing, but do they maybe belong to that genre of jackets that you would have thought looked a bit silly before you got ‘into jackets’? If so you could try and channel that earlier self?

    I think we should probably call time out here before the mods do. I’m sorry if you feel I have read you in bad faith. You will note I have not accused anyone of being hateful, and everyone concerned is very welcome to collect their ‘I’m not prejudiced (I just think all fluids are equally gross...
