Thanks dude, I have sold most of them already, remaining Real Mccoy Buco J-100 42 and Cockpit Air Force One A-2.
DH is really soft and Rainbow Country has excellent horsehide quality.
As for the brown suede jean style jacket, it is Y'2. It is also a very beautiful jacket. And the price is much more affordable than others, around $750? It has a light herbal scent, it reminds me of my vacation in hotels of Southeast Asia. I highly recommend this jacket too. I sold this one reluctantly to a friend heading to Zimbabwe to do business. As I am planning to move to southern cities in China. High humidity makes it hard to keep leather jacket in good condition, let alone the suede one.

Thanks.

So, I was right that the suede one is a Y2. Do you know the model name? I think I will try and hunt one down at some point.

it should be
Y’2 LEATHER TB-139 STEER SUEDE 3rd Type
i heard they have made some changes on this ver., by changing from snap-fasterner to buttons and different colors as well, red, orange, brown last year. You could go and check if there is any latest updates this year.

For Y'2 leather I only recommend to buy this suede jacket, they do have type ii and type iii. Type iii is a newer version with a better lining and inner pockets, while obviously price higher a little bit.
As for Y'2 horsehide leather jackets, i would say they are dyeing technique is rather immature. The color black is not really that black if you compare to jackets like mine of Freewheelers Rude Black. Their black jacket looks pale and grey in the light. And the horsehide jacket is really hard to break in.
