IHJ-35-BLK - Japanese Horsehide Rider’s Jacket - Black (Tea-Core Dyed)

[68degreesorless]

@Giles I see early references (~2015) to this jacket being veg tanned instead of chrome tanned - was there a change made to the production process? if so, can you share why?

There was some false info floating around back then regarding this jacket, including that the Self Edge version had a higher quality leather.  If I remember correctly, it was first listed as veg tanned and then corrected at some point to chrome tanned.  Additionally, there were no references to tea core at that time.

I bought mine in 2016 and it was already listed as chrome tanned at that point.

While visiting home and family back in July I hit up Self Edge and snagged one of these guys in 38/M. Absolutely amazing jacket!

Incredible fit! And a Monsters Bash pinball machine!! Insane dude. Is that yours?? Looks pristine!

Thanks man! Yeah it's mine, love the game. It's the Chicago Gaming Remake, number 1242 of the LE's.

This is a damn solid jacket and right up my alley. I'd love a version with a slanted chest pocket to only one side, that wluld be tidy.

@Olly I’ve seen you wearing this on the Gram (or the collared version) and am curious what size you go with.

[Kasi]

Probably be a large

Yeah that's what I'm thinking I'd go with. I'd want it to be pretty trim, and tbh probably wouldn't zip it up too often. Tough call though!

Also random question for anyone in the US who's bought this jacket: did you have to pay duty on it since it's over x amount (I think it's like $800 maybe?). Not a biggie just wondering what the damage is.

I am large…

Have this jacket can zip it and leave it open

[Jett129]

Was curious about the Duty,so I googled it but couldn’t find out how much it would  be. The limit is $800 and you pay a percentage of the total price,not just the amount over.

There’s one of these in „as new“ condition on German eBay for only 950€, if someone is interested.
If only it was my size

It’s a 40 (L?)
