Update on the brown aniline cafe racer. I hope Greg brings it back, I'll definitely get one again if he offers it.

It got wet after this photo and it's looking better than ever but don't have time to take photos yet

Awesome evo! Greg told me he’s hoping to get more brown aniline Shinki in 5-6 months. I’d love a Surrogates jacket made out of that hide!

Yes! The color is getting more even (darker) so that's cool to see and the crease/folds are so nice. I'm in love with this leather, I want another jacket with this hide if he offers it again.

What's a surrogates jacket?

obviously not a TFLer. That sleeve length. jeez :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

He needs to find a good place to have it shortened maybe we can point him in the right direction lol

Just reached out to Greg about it and he is still undecided as he cannot guarantee uniformity of the hide and if it's the right shade of brown that he wants but he is getting more care from his supplier so hopefully that translates to getting the correct brown aniline leather.

He did say he is ordering enough of antique brown shinki for 2 jackets. It looks like something @red devil would wear in that it has a lot of red into it.

Right up at your alley lol just spreading some gossip

This antique looks nice too. Is this pigment dyed? Howcome I don't know about this leather :)? I still want a brown FL jacket.

I just message him from time to time to ask around lol looks pigment dyed to me (because it's shiny?) I just messaged him and he told me he still doesn't know as his supplier hasn't confirmed it yet (greg thinks it's probably not a full aniline by how it feels but it does have a good amount of pull up)
