    Anyone worn Goruck brand boots?

    "that still has traditional looks" is a bit of an overstatement for my taste, but the cemented proprietary sole will definitely make the boot a lot lighter. Talk about a downgrade from a pair of White's though.

    FS: 8.5D Nick's x Carl Murowski Tanker Boots 8 inch height Blk CXL

    No prob. You keep posting these incredible pairs for a great price. Where the hell do you get your hands on these in Taiwan? Please post more 9D sized ones :D

    FS: 8.5D Nick's x Carl Murowski Tanker Boots 8 inch height Blk CXL

    Seems like it's actually 8.5D, not 8D?

    Chinese leather jackets

    Maybe someone can comment on this topic: I see some of the Chinese jackets also listed in JP auctions from time to time. Often at lower prices, even considering shipping costs. Does it make sense to buy them this way? I guess you loose the direct contact with the AliExpress store that is...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Beautiful jacket but this is what kills it for me: 1. Cinches at the bottom instead of half-belt level. I know there are historic example of this but I find this completely bizarre. 2. The sleeve width looks ENORMOUS. 3 . Hookless zipper is not your friend most of the time. 4 . 59cm long...

    "R.B.C" half-belt in cordovan CXL steerhide - Size 34 (fit's like a 36) / Size S

    Here's how this stiff ba***rd looks on my skinny 55kg ass only with a long sleeve henley. A thick sweater fills it out a lot better in my case.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Perhaps you are correct, but I certainly was not impressed by the LW jacket that I received from JP. But likely that has more to do with the mythical status of LW and my high expectations than what the jacket actually was. It was definitely good quality, but nothing WOW about it at all. Loved...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I don't agree. If you're selling a jacket for 3k then you're not an "amateur", you should know how to measure. And provide photos of the measurements if the method is in doubt. On the other hand at those prices the jackets most likely don't get worn anyway and just go to some collectors...

    MOTO / MOTOR / Leather things motor derby shoes in natural CXL - Size "2" / Size 9 ish / Size 42-43

    Ah yes, the brand from Japan with absolutely incredible footwear and an absolutely awful name. Always dreamed of a pair of MOTO shoes/boots, finally caught a 2nd pair in JP for a decent price. Catch and release unfortunately - these don't fit my feet too well. The size is "2", which translated...

    Vanson heavy old-school competition weight leather pants - Size 29

    To be honest I'm pricing this rather high because I don't want to sell them haha. These are nuts. Absolutely gorgeous leather. Old school CW it seems. Wish my Vanson E jacket was made from this leather... Thick and beefy yet soft and pliable. Basically mint condition, no signs of wear...

    New forum member brand (Rugged West)

    So is that the actual "oil black" or the "blackened brown" or the "seal brown"? All the historic 1.4mm steer options are confusing me quite a lot?

    Oooh that looks good on you! Would be nice to see a picture with it buttoned up and from the back :)

    Wrong section, my bad! @Peacoat can one of the moderators move this to classifieds?

    "R.B.C" half-belt in cordovan CXL steerhide - Size 34 (fit's like a 36) / Size S

    First dibs to TFL before I throw it you to the ebay/kleinanzeigen/vinted vultures! Got this strange but gorgeous "R.B.C" half-belt from JP recently. Seems like an Aero 30s half-belt copy more or less. It was a bit dry and scuffed up here and there, but some conditioner really softened it up and...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    The WHY is something I can only speculate on. Most likely batches of jackets ordered by distributors in JP for the local clientele. Whether the lighter hide choice comes from the requester or provider - I have no idea. But this topic has been discussed and confirmed multiple times on TFL in the...

    Same experience here. Quality was great, leather was very meh. I'm wondering if the patterns are the same or adjusted for JP crowd.

    "These measurements are taken by an amateur, so please understand that there may be some slight errors." This is hilarious for 3k jacket.

    Regarding the recently posted LW ones: Curb your expectations if you're hoping to get one of the legendary heavyweight LW jackets - the ones from JP tend to have much thinner and lower grade (?) leather. This has been discussed on TFL multiple times but it's still worth mentioning.
