The chest pocket is inspired by the Buco PJ27.

The jacket just looks like a mix between a Classic Perfecto and a Buco PJ27.
No idea about the maker, it doesn't look like great leather...

(1) Tag “made in Korea” says it all.
(2) the leather from the photos alone look paper thin. You’d rip it if it snags at a door, for example.

Here is a case of you get what you pay for. Hard pass.

While the jacket in question isn’t impressive, wouldn’t be too dismissive about a “Made in Korea” tag. @torfjord got a nice HD Trojan repro from there.

Thanks for the reply both! Totally see what @jchance Is saying. But actually the post that @bigmanbigtruck has shared is what made me think perhaps made in Korea wasn't such a bad thing.

Either way i may air on the side of caution and pass on this one

1. It does not. Like any country, there’s **** made in Korea, and there’s great things made there. Talking about leather goods specifically.
2. Completely agree. Leather looks super thin, boring and ugly. The tag says ”genuine leather” and that does say it all. Leather dust glued together and coated in plastic, nooooo thanks. Hard pass.
