    J-24 Style Jacket (Y2, Double Helix & RMC)

    You won't really be able to compare pit to pit, etc. from body measurements, you need a garment to measure, otherwise there will be a lot of guesswork for chest ease, etc. I mean you technically can, but it's kind of a gamble to go off purely body measurements. There is already enough guesswork...

    J-24 Style Jacket (Y2, Double Helix & RMC)

    Also don't forget to consider body length, both the Y2 and Double Helix look longer in the torso, I prefer the proportions of the Real McCoy's one personally. To me fit is more important than what leather, construction, etc. so pick the one most flattering for your body proportions.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    That's an incredible jacket! It reminds me a little of the Rainbow Country Ponyboy, with the separate panel in the center. Also I really dig that indigo fabric liner, wow!

    Love that Leathertogs with the super grainy D-pocket, I wonder if Greg would allow for a request click the leather in a similar way...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    This jacket is a funny example of something sold to Japan from the US for what I assume is a considerable mark up, and now the other way around, selling in Japan and a reseller has jacked the product page to sell it back to the US at a considerable markup again...

    FS: Diesel Buco J-24 Repro Motorcycle Leather Jacket, sz. L (44-ish).

    It's funny how we approach it in a different way, I'm 6', have a long torso, prefer short jackets so it doesn't make my legs look out of proportion lol!

    Yeah, it says 61 cm which Google tells me is 24" so quite a short jacket, weird, it didn't look so short from the front to my eye.

    Not at all, at most it will be the dye coming off a little from what it looks like on those photos. I used Bick 4, light conditioner.

    Beautiful plaid Hercules, for a great price. Listing says 60s 70s, but to me looks a lot earlier due to the tag and the Crown zip. https://jp.mercari.com/item/m65347738091

    Looks like maybe overdye or topcoat layer is dry and cracked a little (assuming you don't mean the grain as "cracking"), I had a similar thing happen on my boots, just a little conditioner will rehydrate and blend it back in.

    I was looking at this exact listing, sizing is a touch big for me, but I believe this is the original Highwayman before they were acquired. I think many British brands shared similar patterns as well in this era.

    Bradley Cooper’s leather jacket in the movie ‘Burnt’

    Regular leather is already plenty water resistant, in terms of water entering inside the boot, so unless you're in really extended periods in deep water, I don't really see the use for these. Maybe it's similar to the Nick's WaterWork boots that have silicone impregnated leather...
