    [SOLD]The Flat Head Horsehide Cafe Racer SRJ-06A 42

    Decided its just a bit too big for me(if you have a 40 and want to trade for a bigger size I'm interested in that as well), its up on eBay and grailed plenty of pics with measurements. Price is better here of course. Happy to answer questions or send additional pics. Approximate measurements in...

    Flat Head Deerskin Rider’s Jacket

    If you're considering, my experience with tfh deerskin had been they are a bit looser in the chest and shoulders than the horsehide equivalent those measurements are more like a 42 for their horsehide jackets. Although, there is quite a bit of variation.

    I am hoping he brings in the black version of this leather, there's an olive that's pretty cool too.

    Check out this thread on tenjin works: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/tenjin-rocks.94077/ As with all things, shinki and tochigi have different product lines but i am assuming Greg will get something similar to what tenjin uses and his shinki looks mid weight similar to Himel. My...

    Yeah they have quite a few colors although i imagine he wouldn't bring in the entire variety. I'm more interested in cowhide at this point, and the Tochigi looks really unique relative to what else is out there and i quite like the black. And the leather has a nice texture to it. The shinki pony...

    Just as a heads-up i was chatting with Greg the other day and he's considering bringing in Tochigi. I'm really looking for a shinki alternative, i like shinki and have several jackets in it not knocking it, and would really like something different. Tenjin works examples look great to me, really...

    Laer Brand Leather Jackets

    I've not seen this particular video but I've seen quite a few of their videos. I find them entertaining. They're over the top enthusiastic about basically everything and definitely to be taken with a grain of salt. The Laer jackets in photos don't appeal to me relative to what else is out there...

    Aero Sheene made of unfinished horsehide

    Viberg uses natural and crust cxl for their boots. I assume similar to here just different thickness. I've had natural cxl and crust horsebutt from them. What they're labeling natural is as you said, is a finishing color and the crust is unfinished. My natural boots have a warm yellowish...

    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    That sounds like a real awful experience, sorry you had to deal with that. I would lay that entire situation at the feet of black bear. It's their responsibility from the moment they take your cash. While I believe Y'2 has a retail operation in Japan this was contract manufactured(possibly a...

    Is it ok to negotiate and/or offer less than the listed price? What qualifies as a low ball offer?

    I am in agreement, I generally believe everything is negotiable unless expressly mentioned. As far as low balls, I only get annoyed when items that are in high demand, rare or obviously fairly priced get an offer ~50% below your list. I realize with certain jackets it's not always obvious what...

    be wary of sellers

    I just read through that second one, I missed that back in December that is disturbing. Clearly, the word is out to the unscrupulous that PayPal/eBay favor buyers seemingly 97% of the time. I've been selling stuff on eBay a long time but have pretty much stopped because of this issue. They...

    Inspiration for my bespoke leather jacket

    Ultimately you have to decide what appeals to you the most, assuming Greg would be willing to make some of the more fashion forward designs. As others above have said he is clearly oriented to more classic designs of 20th century. The Japanese(and others) repro brands range from exacting...

    I'm in, got lucky to have made my decision before the avalanche Your jacket on IG over the summer was what put Greg on my radar. I just waited too long into the fall. Edit: spell check
