@Darth-fader AWESOME jacket. Love the Cherry color.

Hey @Daniel-San , how’s that 1mm tea/core doing? How’s the chest room on that one? I’m thinking that may be my next try since the Leon isn’t really working out.

@WhiskeySandwich
yes I thought the same as sabergirl when I’ve seen your pic .
the 1mm shore is awesome and has more room along the torso for sure. But I think it’s not so cool for riding a motorcycle.
what about the double riders jackets from Y2 or Double Helix or the flat head ? They are more roomy than the fine creek and the bi swing makes them more suitable for riding in my opinion.
But if you just want a awesome leather jacket I can highly recommend the shore.
Maybe TJ from the Shop Vancouver can help you finding the right jacket .

@Daniel-San word, thanks. If it fits and is comfortable I’m sure itd be good for everything I do on/off bike.

Any testimonials as to how these fit whether steer or horse is appreciated. Arm slimness? Shoulder dims? Armpit fit etc? Real world experience never ends up in the product description lol

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot Great combo

Ended up going for the 1mm Black Chore in a size 44. Hoping this works out better than that FCL Leon. In hindsight, idk why i didn't go with this first cuz i've had my eye on it forever. The measurements on the 44 are damn near the same as my XL UHFs, so it should work out fine. TJ at The Shop has a few videos about how horse breaks in and it looks like all of his worked like shrink-to-fit lol. I didn't know about this, could end up pretty dialed. super psyched.

@WhiskeySandwich
I sized up on the shore because I wanted to have the opportunity to layer. first it felt a little big and boxy , but it starts to mould pretty fast .
here’s a little teaser

nice

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Daniel-San cant wait man! Has it seen much rain? "Shrunk" much? I plan on wearing the hell out of it, i do ride in the rain and that seems to be how TJ gets his break-in fit. I'm afraid it'll be too big just because its size 44. The chart is on point tho with a little bit over in the shoulder. I'm 5'11" 175lbs, which is smaller than TJ but my chest and shoulders are bigger, and i have orangutan arms.

@Mister_Brue yeah looks hella awkward at first. measurements are key tho and as long as there's nothing super wonky about it, I'm sure it wont be baggy fit. This is going to be a fit-by-feel, not by look i think

@WhiskeySandwich
I had not much chances to wear in the rain, but 2 or 3 times I did . It definitely changed the fit even it was not completely wet. seems to be the gamechanger for most horse hide jackets in general. I’ve red about a guy soaking his horse hide jacket in a tub of rain water and then wear it wet to set the creases and mould .
hope your sleeves are long enough , they get a good amount shorter with wear.

Fuckin UPS with their duty tax payment glitched out and failed. Of course thats not what my bank thinks. Now I have a pending charge and unpaid duty tax.

I gave myself a present for my Birthday and for Christmas, I bought a leather jacket in size 42, KB-140-T in Kakishibu Persimmon from Y'2 Leather!

[Mizmazzle]

@WhiskeySandwich did you get your jacket dude?? Stoked to see how it works out for ya!

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Mizmazzle lol not yet. Christmas time shipping and UPS mixups. It’s been in my state for almost a week! Itching to get my hands on it. I’ll be sure to post a fit pic. Expecting it to fit nearly identical to my 16oz SBG.

[Mizmazzle]

@WhiskeySandwich hell yeah dude. I know you’ve been after a primo leather jacket for a little bit now. I’ll be stoked to see some of those killer moto riding shots you take in this beauty.

@WhiskeySandwich feel you. I’ve got one stuck in NYC. Picked up the tb-153 in navy. Just got released.
