Y'2 Leathers….

Some Kakishibu vibes before work! Hope everyone having a great day

@derek111 looking amazing…..in my experience with Y2 horsehide jackets, it’s best when they feel slightly too big to begin with, but with wear (and a good dose of rain) then really shrink down and start to shape perfectly. My red chore jacket is probably the most comfortable to wear of them all

@derek111 @mecken88 I love your jackets guys!! Hope one day someone brings these Y'2 chore jackets to Europe, no way I want to afford the import duties+tax to Germany even knowing the red overdyed chore is my absolute grail...

[mecken88]

@FlavourFade yeah the added fees to Sweden really sucked for sure

Unfortunately because the chore shirt is an exclusive collab piece between Y2 and TJ, I don’t think that particular jacket model will ever be released anywhere else than at the shop Vancouver.
A lot of European stores sell Y2. But the chore shirt is an exclusive collab piece unfortunately

@mecken88 I feel you! I‘m holding out that one pops up somehow in my size on the second hand market here. They are all awesome!

[FlavourFade]

@mecken88 yeah I am aware, but I still hope there's a way or I just deal with it one day. We'll see

[mecken88]

@FlavourFade okey didn’t mean to step on your toes🥰
I hope you stumble on a great deal or that it just sorts its way, I think you would dig it a lot🫶

[FlavourFade]

@mecken88 you didn't buddy!! For now I am happy to watch you guys living in your chore jackets

@derek111 looking like a million bucks dude!

Had the pleasure to be asked by Albert (upstateguystyle) at instagram if I wanted to have a #onefavoritething post on this instagram.
And this is some pictures from what led to that post

Scar Kakishibu in focus🫶

@mecken88 the creases are not from this world my man!! Can't see enough of your jacket and Albert is a very nice guy, had some good talks with him. He did work for the same company as my father.

@FlavourFade thanks man, the jacket is truly special🫶
we go back a few years when I knew nothing about fades and boots. So I asked him about engineer boots and on that path we got to know each other. He has been so kind, gentle and genuine towards and my questions and talks over the years.
He is truly a great guy🫶
