      @Giles:

      More info on the Tannery.  It is in Himeji which is famous for it's tanneries (Shinki, being perhaps the largest).  The tannery we use is a tiny one (much like the tiny mills we use for weaving) and we believe the veg tanned horse that it produces is second to none and that includes Shinki…

      Knowing Haraki, I believe it. One to watch for closely… More when available please [emoji4]

        What are you doing to me Giles? I just bought the J100, now this appears….. Scribbles on the back of an envelope and tries to juggle finances to justify buying both... despairs and just settles for waiting for my J100 to arrive

            Ya or Nay is it silly to own this jacket when you don't ride a bike?

              Do you need a jacket?  Do you like this one?  If yes, then it's not silly.

              We wear all kinds of items that aren't being used for their original purpose- dive watches, engineer boots, baseball caps, etc.  This is no different.

                    It gives you an excuse to get a bike. 🙂

                    Actually I'd go and talk to someone like BKS Leather for riding gear. Something like the IHJ-35 would count more as a fashion jacket in my book.

                        Who is making these jackets? The style and the leather is fantastic.

                            Oh, I definitely want one! Please keep me posted. Thanks.

                            PS – will they be available in a US size "48" (pit to pit 24")?

                              Welcome @Sheepdog149  A couple of things:

                              1. you can complete this form for any item we are out of stock of, or we are awaiting to arrive…..

                              2. We will def do a P2P of 24, but that does not actually equate (in our paradigm, at least) to a size 48.  Take a look at the sizing chart here:

                                  Are the jackets standard sizing only, or will longer sleeves/length be an order option?
