@Rooney-04 I live in California and have had to pay duties every time I have purchased from TJ. With DHL or UPS it is the same experience. Before taking receipt from the shipper you will be noticed with an invoice to pay directly to the shipper. Fairly easy process. The duties have never been much more that $100ish for items that were in the $1k to $1.4k price range.

@Bums_Fan
Thanks man. One more question, do you get the invoice from the shipper digitally or is it something delivered physically to the shipping or billing address in your experience? Thanks again!

@hgering27

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience! I appreciate it!!

[Bums_Fan]

@Rooney-04 you are welcome. The invoices have been digital in all instances for me.

Hey Boss. If you see this, would you mind commenting on how your journey with the Indigo Chore shirt has been going? I think this one is next up on my list because of availability and price point but I see most of the guys going with the camel. Just interested to hear what you might have to say. Thanks for your time and anything you have to share!

Pretty clear tan lines after a couple of hours each the last 3 days. May stop here for now. Digging the honey color.

@Rooney-04 directly to your question, I really like the chore shirt in navy/indigo. It’s unlike any other leather goods I have that I own.
The longer answer…I live in Southern California. My Y’2 leather stuff has not see the light of day since late April or early May. If pressed for my preference, I wear my two Y’2 western shirts (camel steerhide and black tea core) more often. The chore shirt has its place in my rotation, I just prefer the western shirts more.

i recently bought the IB-141 new, and also picked up an EB-140 second hand (although it was practically new) and i absolutely love the pair of them.
Both size 40, and i am usually a large in most iron heart shirts and jackets.

I especially find the colour of both jackets really beautiful, the green one has some real depth to it that is hard to see in photos.
The Eb 140 is also a bit thicker/heavier than the IB141, so is better if its a bit colder outside with the indigo more of a lighter, everyday jacket

@Daniel-San That jacket must be unlined? It's the best look.

[popvulture]

@Daniel-San man, that is killer! Which model is it?

[T4920]

@Darth-fader these are amazing

Hope to have one myself someday, I will try and visit Y'2 when I finally go back to Japan...

@popvulture
it’s the LB-140 ANILINE BLACK HORSE HIDE TYPE 1 JACKET.
the leather is a little thinner than the usual eco horse and feels/ looks different because it’s aniline dyed and not tea core. I absolutely love this leather !

@indigostiff
it’s lined
