    @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.

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

          Probably just trying to make a sale. Silly

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

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

                  I asked Giles for a discount earlier, but it didn't work  😉

                          A better representation of the shine of the leather.

                            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".

                                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.
