Lost Worlds, what is the difference between Buco j23 and j24?

[realfreddy]

I asked Stuart and he said "only the extensive handwork, bespoke parts & labor, separate J23 from J 24. Otherwise, same jacket. And belt is included in J23 price, not in J24."

He has a reputation of being a little grouchy, so I didn't ask him to elaborate. Anybody know?

He answered the question you asked. Those are the only differences.

Ok so it's just got better parts and he works harder on it?

Have you looked at the jackets? One is bedazzled with stones, etc and one is not. The bedazzled version is more expensive…Because it’s bedazzled and bedazzling takes time. That’s it. If you want to be shiny, get the bedazzled j-24. If not, get the j-23. I had two j-23’s. The stones did not do it for me and I didn’t want the belt.

Perfect comparison, I had no idea the J24 also could have the D-Pocket. I really appreciate this! Thanks. I understand now.

Tbh, I thought you were trolling. But if you wanna see pics of his jackets, they’re on his website here

There’s some other D-pocket jackets if that’s your thing.

Yeah, I have visited it a ton, I am deciding between Speed Demon, j24, and Trojan, although Trojan doesn't have the little fastener things on the triangular parts of the jacket that attach it to the body to keep your jacket from flapping in the wind while riding, so it's probably just between Speed Demon and J24 now. Speed doesn't have the D pocket and the belt is not detached in the same way that an added option J24 belt is, HOWEVER this one specific picture of the Speed Demon looks a lot cooler than most of the j-24 pictures on the J24 page so I will have to keep pondering between these two, but due to the previously mentioned I might be leaning towards j24 personally.
