What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[dannyk]

I was sort of wondering to myself what you meant as I did write in the post what it was lol. But I get it now. It is a Harley Davidson brand jacket, produced in Korea. Size L and I’m a size 40. It works but for heavy layering. I think I’d need an XL for that.

Haha yeah I realized I worded it poorly when I read it back to myself and I was like that doesn’t make any sense. Thanks for dealing with me ha

I guess to clarify my question is it an actual real Harley brand made in Korea or a Korean repro brand doing a Harley?

Danny I've seen lovely Indian jackets in Japan, label says Indian motorcycles registed but another label says toys Corp, made under licence?

Yup. In the very early days of The Real McCoys/Toys/Joe McCoy’s they contracted with Indian and Harley to make repros like they do currently with Buco. That’s the very early days you’ll see them pop up now and then. Never owned one, I think a member or two have at some point come across them. They are pretty cool.

That’s why I asked @torfjord poorly the first time haha. If it’s an actual Harley or a Korean repro brand either licensed or unlicensed making Harley designs.

It fits you perfectly. You could have said its pedigree was much higher than a MIK HD and I would have believed it.

Another nameless vintage sheepskin. Winter is set to ground and pound Chicago. I swore I’d never own a sheepskin jacket. Now I have three.

Made in Korea Harley Davidson Trojan repro that I picked up yesterday. Quite happy with it. Very nice mid weight leather. Quite shiny and with interesting grain. It’s very similar to the leather on my Bates jacket.
Pattern and mobility is solid. Only small nitpickings is that I would have liked a tiny bit more taper to the body and room in the sleeves. But that really is minor complaints.

Absolutely nailed the fit!

Thanks man! I have no idea what tier Korea made HD jackets usually fall into. But everything about this is top end. Fit, construction, leather. It's as nice or nicer than jackets I've owned or handled that had a a much, much higher price point.

Absolutely nailed the fit!

Way too kind, thank you so much
