Y'2 Leathers….

Top to bottom (KB-140-T, Chore Jacket Tan Suede, KS-11)

@pechelman
that’s correct. I went for a 46 because of the shoulders and to be able to wear a hoodie or thicker pullover in the winter. TJ measured it for me and we both decided the 46 is best option.
Have a Type 1 from Y2 too, and it’s a 44. There I can only wear a tshirt or thin longsleeve. -
@Kjunx beautiful!
-
I want one of these leather chore shirts pretty bad now lol, i've been fantasizing about a leather IH work jacket for a while now and these Shop Vancouver ones look damn good. Been wearing yours at all @Daniel-San ? Care to share any notes on it? Curious about the weight, sheen, lining etc. and does it have the interior pocket mentioned on their details page?

@WhiskeySandwich
it’s absolutely awesome, and If you like the style you can’t go wrong with it. The leather is much more substantial than I thought 1mm would be. In the beginning very cardboard like and stiff , have you seen my fit pic
? but it’s getting better pretty fast , unfortunately it’s to hot at the moment to really wear it . the leather has this typical horse hide sheen, not too much but I would definitely prefer less sheen though . Will wear it in the rain to get it as wet as possible, this will reduce the sheen as I red somewhere and will help moulding . it has an internal pocket yes, but only this one with the lining.
hope this helps? -
@Daniel-San Good stuff, thank you! We'll see if its on the menu.....
-
@goosehd These are really cool pants and I am contemplating for a while now to get them. I am just not sure where/when I would wear them and am also worried about getting the right fit as returning things to Canada is a pain.
I would love to see updates on your experiences with it. -
@BorisB I wear mine on the bike, but have no issues wearing them out in town as a jeans substitute. As to fit, watch all of the videos and follow TJ’s advice. He know’s how to size them very well and will also entertain you on all of your questions that you can come up with. Just contact him via email or phone him. Great resource and great individual in the denim/leather community.

@Daniel-San how do you like the tea core? I have the steerhide, but I am trying to decide between getting the black teacore or the scar
-
@hgering27
it’s absolutely fantastic, but I am pretty sure the scar is too
are they still available? though they both sold out ? -
@Daniel-San they have the 52 in stock in the scar and 52 and 54 for the horse. my steer chore is a 50, so I was leaning towards doing a 52 in this one to have some room
-
@hgering27
ah ok the bigger sizes
I sized up to a 46 to have the chance to layer in the winter. -
@Daniel-San Good call - something tells me this next one will pack a punch
-
@Daniel-San yeah thats what im thinking, i am just stuck deciding between the two. my steerhide is 50 and it fits well, but its a bit snug when buttoned
-
Fwiw, I have a 46 in a single rider by Y2; sized up to 48 for the scar chore jacket and really happy I did. I’m an XXL in IH shirts and can squeeze into XXL in IH Jackets, but prefer the XXXL for shoulder and arm mobility
-
Feel like I'm being thrown for a bit of a loop with a typical type 1 fit versus a snug leather jacket fit. This is just with a tee. Easily layers a uhf. Fit feels decent in the chest, only restrictive across the back when I reach for things but would be perfectly fine for driving. Length is about perfect imo. Any other thoughts?
-
@pechelman the fit is on point
-
@pechelman that’s a damn good fit man. Shoulders are right where they should be. Length looks perfect. Nice that you have room in the chest to layer too, but still looks clean with a tee.
