[Signal11]

Thanks guys for taking the effort to post pics!
Certainly looks less shiny and great fits too!

We're going to be working on some less kinky pics of the leather today (hopefully) @Signal11

@Giles:

Same tannage, different horse…...

One of the guys working at SENY told me that the quality of leather used in their version is a bit better than that used in the non-SelfEdge version.  He didn't say exactly how they differed, though.

[Giles]

I think he is a little confused.  Because that is completely inaccurate, what part of that makes any sense at all.?

Me - "Hey, we're selling lower quality goods branded Iron Heart, than we sell co-branded'

[Seul]

Must've been Belgian…

Probably just trying to make a sale. Silly

[Dion]

Not a cool move trying to make a sale with such a bold claim at the expense of the original IH product.

[Sam]

The leather in daylight… a bit of shadow and a bit of direct sun.

[Chap]

Great look and fit @Alex… that is YOUR jacket 

[Alex]

Thanks, @Chap
I asked Giles for a discount earlier, but it didn't work 

[Seul]

Sick looking jacket - even on a Padmore…

[Signal11]

What size are you wearing Alex? Looks great!

[Alex]

XXL @Signal11 & thank you 

[Sam]

A better representation of the shine of the leather.

[Manticore]

Great shots @Sam - they capture the look much better IMO. This beauty has supplanted all others as my go-to leather jacket.

I would like to think that he was repeating information he obtained from someone else and not trying to directly swindle me.  But I didn't need a sales pitch since I had already made up my mind to buy the jacket before I entered the store and wanted to try in on in person to make sure it fit.

Now I'm interested in having more information regarding the leather.  The IH website simply says "Chrome tanned horsehide from a tiny tannery in Himeji".

We're simple people…..

Or as Alex just suggested.  Why don't you ask that guy, he obviously knows more about the leather than we do......

I would, but I can't remember which one it was.  Of course, I would never forget who it was if you told me something  :-*.

Quick pics of this great jacket!

Same outfit as @Alex I think. 666D and 1600.
