@Darth-fader wow!
-
@Darth-fader beautiful, man! Sold out too quickly in my size to snag one. Next year
-
@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot oh no.....well all I can say is if you love the grizzly it will definitely be worth the wait
-
@Darth-fader I’ll survive!
Was definitely a “oh shit, that’s sexy af” moment when I saw it. Great pick up, man.
-
Little under 50 wears on my cafe racer! Love that jacket very much and how it looks already. Have been wearing it mostly for commuting and a couple times for longer periods or going out.
-
@FlavourFade that looks like the same leather on my chore, 1mm teacore?
-
@WhiskeySandwich yes it is! Feels so soft and comfy after very few days of break in. I can imagine how the chore coat or western with the unlined (?) 1mm teacore must drape... Sadly I never saw them in europe
-
@FlavourFade not much drape really imo, it’s pretty rigid. It does have a cotton/nylon lining but it’s the leather that’s surprisingly rigid. It’s shaped out pretty good since I’ve been wearing it several days in the snow, but it’s like a creaky flexy shell lol.
-
@WhiskeySandwich how much wear you have on it? My jacket was rigid in the beginning but I noticed how soft it became after maybe 30 wears, but it's still not fully broken in.
-
@WhiskeySandwich
that leather is really special, if I didn’t know it is just 1mm I would not believe it
-
@FlavourFade I’ve been wearing it pretty nonstop since it showed up last week, went sledding in it too lol. It got pretty wet like 3 times and I wore till dry. I can tell it’s getting much softer, wish I had a new one to compare it to.
@Daniel-San it is, feels more sturdy than the FCL did. I’m sure the leather can take some abuse, and I’m not going easy on it.
The top coat squeaks like a mofo tho, it really needs to chill lol
-
@WhiskeySandwich I think it's gonna be soft in no time when you keep on going
-
9 days and this is feeling good
-
That looks so good, I’m really tempted by that or one of the suede ones, but I’d get screwed on tax coming into the UK.
-
@WhiskeySandwich Looking good also.
-
@NickD same thing for me that keeps me from buying one
-
@NickD said in Y'2 Leathers….:

@NickD yeah the extra tax is a bit of a nightmare, but I just learnt to take it on the chin
-
This was the first time I’ve had to pay duty tax on an international purchase. Was about 130$ usd. Kinda a nutpunch but all considered, I’m satisfied with my purchase
-
@WhiskeySandwich wonder what the rhyme or reason in. They shipped mine to Atlanta and I didn’t have to pay anything. I’ve randomly had to pay for something once before but was unscathed by my last one
-
oh god.....this just arrived, think it might be my new favourite......
