TFH single rider jacket question

[nathlee1992]

Hi everyone,

First time poster here!

I’m in the look for a single rider jacket(not half belt), ideally I would like to purchase from a Japanese maker as I’m based in Sydney Australia and buying from the US is a bit difficult.

From the recent trip to Japan I’ve tried TFH but at that time I didn’t purchase it.

The jacket fits really well and tbh I would the jacket however it’s oos online(don’t want to buy from eu websites because of the mark up) - I’m 5”9 170lbs the 40 aging sample was what I tried and it’s a decent fit

Therefore…. I wanted to look into other options, double helix seems to be a decent option with similar style(hugging the curve model - https://doublehelixworks.com/product/huggingthecurveblackdh/)

Just wondering, does anyone have experience with both jackets fit and leather? Or other makers that makes similar jacket would recommend? Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you.

Thanks for the recommendations! I’ve been to both stores but they don’t have the styles I want. On top of that corlection is probably the worst in terms of service!
Might just keep my eye out with TFH second hand jackets

Bit bummed I didn’t buy it when I was in Japan. Tax free too (extra 10% off)
