That jacket is great. I LOVE the fact that the pattern carries through even OVER the pockets. There are a ton of modern jacket makers that don't do that! Well done!

That Thedi Phenix cafe racer is a fantastic jacket. Leather is beautifully luxurious, softer feel than my Aero CXL FQHH, top quality stuff. Stitching and details are superb. Fit is close to the body, almost like a shirt. Coming from wearing looser fitting jackets, when I first got it, this jacket felt like it might be too tight, especially as the arm holes are high and sleeves are on the narrow side. But once I wore it for a bit these issues took a backseat as the supple leather loosened up and the fit felt just right. Cooler weather is just round the corner, will give this jacket a lot more wear than I've given it so far - oh, the travails of having too many leather jackets in the rotation!

Carrie, what does the back look like?

Here it is! It's a simple, classic back with a half belt, side straps and no shoulder gussets. We'll have more close-up detail shots once we put together the product page for the website.

Oh man. Is that full comp weight?

 

[Carrie @ Thurston Bros.]

Oh man. Is that full comp weight?

Hi ton312,

This Brown Cowhide has the same thickness, weight and durability as the Black Comp Weight (Vanson and a couple of other "old skool" companies use this Brown Cowhide on race suits). However, the Brown Cowhide has more grain and a softer feel than the Black Comp Weight...you won't need to break it in as much! We are really excited with how the leather came out and we have more on the way (Model Bs and Model Fs in Brown Cowhide). Stay tuned!
