Thank you, Tom. I have said this before, but I'll say it again. This community taught me well when I first started exploring leather jackets end of last year. Never had leather jackets before. It was all hoodies and carhartt :)
As for this Himel jacket, it is extremely light weight even though...
Bump. This went live on grailed today.

FH Black single riders leather finish is just incredible. Unlike anything I have seen so far that includes FW or RC or RMC. It has 'not so over the top' sheen, subtle heft, nice grain and buttery soft to wear out of the box. highly recommend if you are not particular about leather needs to be...
uncomplicated is right! very versatile style and I reach to this or black one every time on any occasion since I got them... Although I can say the same about freewheelers brakeman lately ;)
Of course! I am 6ft exact and weighed 188lbs in those pics (taken just few days ago, end of last month). Now, I am 185lbs. Mainly lost chest and waist due to most accessible exercise while traveling/ hectic schedule, running :) When I got it in Nov2021, I was 195lbs.
Wanted to post this here before I put it on eBay or grailed as most folks here know a lot more about rainbow country and importantly I prefer to sell or trade this with fellow lounger…
Backstory: Got this from Store Mirrorball back in Nov2021. But lost few pounds due to increased work travel...
Freewheelers Rebels. Was hesitant to get this one mainly due to concern about back length being short for me… but, @Duke Mantee advised me well . Most flattering fit for my height, yet.
It was pretty tight… I wore it to go out for dinner one night (pic shared taken that day) and could barely strap my seat belt… almost sprained my shoulder. that’s when I knew it wasn’t right for me. I am at peace with it, and also knowing that it went to a great guy in California who rides a...
Thank you, Will. Yes, TFL definitely helped to limit my mistakes to 2 jackets to be specific :) RMC Type G1, which does not feel right on me from any angle lol… And, Butterscotch Addict Tri, which is a nice jacket overall, but I’m not a lean guy or rider like Merv ;) the arms and armholes on it...
Thank you. I have been lurking around here stealthily for about a year now :) picked up lot of details from all of your experiences shared here to get to patterns or leathers I would like and fit to my non-jacket style seamlessly.
I did have some “swing and miss” moments… see my for sale posts...
