Y'2 Leathers….

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Mizmazzle it’s been hard to settle on one. I’ve had my same leather jacket for 10 years now and I’ve been window shopping ever since.

hell yeah I need to take more I been slackin. I fully expect the jacket to work as my all arounder. From wrenching to ridin to dinner dates.
Should be in tomorrow and I’ll be ready to go to work on it after a fit check.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@jfk1117 nice! Hope it makes its way quick!

[WhiskeySandwich]

Finally showed up! I dig the fit. A bit snug right now with a hoodie, but will open up and take one I’m sure. Way heavier than I expected, but in a good way. Now to beat the shit out of it.

[pechelman]

that looks stellar
congrats @WhiskeySandwich !

@WhiskeySandwich nailed the fit congrats!

@WhiskeySandwich Fits very nice. Lets see a back view.

[WhiskeySandwich]

Here’s a quick back snap on the fly lol
Really psyched on the measurements. It’s tough right now but with some break in it’ll be perfect. Def glad I went with the 44.

@WhiskeySandwich Right on.

@WhiskeySandwich dude that thing looks amazing. Congrats

[Mizmazzle]

@WhiskeySandwich KA-POW!!! That jacket is freaking dope!!! You’re just the man for the break in job on this one!!!

Is that a teacore leather?

[WhiskeySandwich]

Hell yeah thanks yall! I don’t wanna take it off. It’s a great piece. I appreciate all the kind words and will be sure to share the journey. I think the thing will get a lot of miles. Really loving the old school chopper vibe I’m getting from this thing. I’ve seen y’all dressing em up and looking mint, I like that it can do that and will surely have occasions where I do the same, but this is my kinda biker jacket

@Mister_Brue love that chore coat styling.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Mister_Brue I had my eye on the camel too, maybe down the road now that I have hands on this beaut

After trying on a deerhide jacket in Osaka, I jumped on this when it popped up.

@pechelman I’m curious how it is too. Saw it on the shop and it looks awesome.

[pechelman]

It's super soft and almost squishy feeling. For a shirt it's as heavy as a jacket. It drapes more like well worn broken in heavy denim than leather. Totally different than the big buck. TJ's description is spot on in the videos.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@pechelman looks plush! I love deer

@pechelman How's the measurements/fit on that one for ya? Was really considering, but the sizing chart scared me a bit when I was comparing UHF sizing to the charts with TJ.

[pechelman]

I can take actual measurements later if you need, but I'd say it fits true to his chart. Generally it fits really similar to my large 293, maybe a touch wider. This is a size 44 which fits the same as the other y2 Western I was able to try in Osaka.

Fwiw, I'm usually an XL in uhfs Western and a large in just about everything else IH.

[WhiskeySandwich]

quick note: I'm wearing this at work to help break in, and it is steady producing a disruptive level of squeaks. I'm trying not to laugh.
