I haven't heard anyone mention this store in a long time.

AL ' store is about a third more expensive than other stores for the same products, and shipping is just as high! Other stores charge about $18-$25 for shipping, while AL ' store charges at least $40 for shipping.
When I bought 2 jaclets to AL's Store his price is about the same of the others. But he answered me anytime I wrote, and He sent me detailed pictures I requested. First jacket I bought was too small and I returned it for free. For me AL's was a very positive experience.

Actually this is my Perfecto/J24 style leather chinese Jackets I collected in last 2 years.
Quite a collection. It would be nice to hear your thoughts on the different manufacturers—which have the best patterns/leather etc? Fit pics would also be good to see.

I’m particularly interested in the best bang-for-buck j24–I’ve been looking at Jiashi, Cidu and the unfortunately named Veluokdly.

Why VELUOKDLY is unfortunated named ?

My favourite FIT is CIDU ,it is the only brand with 65cm sleeves lenght for 2XL size
My favourite leather is JASHI
My favourite colors are VELUOKDLY browns

Any brand have something more and less than others

If I had to choose only ONE I will buy again JASHI J24 with mouton collar.

Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue... Lol. Veluokdly sounds like some new medication.

Like will says, it doesn’t mean anything bad but all of the consonants without vowels between them make it impossible to pronounce in English phonetics!
HA HA , I took some times to read and remember it ! In any way, the QUALITY CHECK of VELUOKDLY is the worst between 3 brands, But colors are realy beautifull !!!!!!

Bought this used off of Grailed and am pretty happy with it. By Chinese brand MotivMFG in dark brown veg tanned horsehide. Had a dark brown leather jacket before in a newsboy style that I wasn’t really happy with and wanted something with a bit more personality that I could also comfortably fit over something other than a tshirt. This is supposed to be designed as somewhere in between a vintage English Royal Air Force flight jacket and a carcoat.

These photos are from Dylan at Brando Leathers. I purchased one of his 30’s HH Half Belts a few months ago and was really pleased with the quality and fit. I’m a 46/48 and his Asian 4XL fit just right. I’ve been wanting a burgundy/reddish J 24 style jacket with brass zips and buttons.
Thoughts appreciated.

I pulled the trigger on this one today from Dylan.

Maybe someone can comment on this topic:
I see some of the Chinese jackets also listed in JP auctions from time to time. Often at lower prices, even considering shipping costs.
Does it make sense to buy them this way? I guess you loose the direct contact with the AliExpress store that is selling them and lose the ability to return in that case?

Here's an example:

JP ~125eu excluding shipping : https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/japan/en/auction/yahoo/input/q1150394158/

Aliexpress ~200eu excluding shipping : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100...6qYSAnez&utparam-url=scene:search|query_from:
