    Chinese leather jackets

    I actually have this jacket in A-2. Cidu made, was clearing out inventory 2 years ago. This leather is actually really good, smells great too, and it's not a bait switch like other makers in china, where they say it's one hide and they switch to another. I checked the price, it's about 100usd...

    Have you guys seen this video about “styling leather jackets for adult men”…

    Man this guy along with hundreds of other "influencers" are Thursday shills. Wouldn't trust a thing he has to say.

    Chinese leather jackets

    I would go with the goat version, looks like cidu/other guys copying Cidu. Curphy should be avoided. I brought a jacket from them, and they claim Italian red tea core horsehide, when I got it, it was definitely local Chinese tannery's pony hide. That really put me off, their advertising on...

    Explaining the Aero Fit.

    Nice investigation work Would 24 inch length and additional front drop and 19inch hem get it looking like speedway ? Or do you think 24 inch back and 20.5 hem give the same speedway look )(? From your theory I'm also considering longer back, I think the main issue with longer back is sitting...

    Chinese leather jackets

    Just want to chime in here, Aliexpress is not the best places to get the best "value" from the lower end makers out of China. Not to mention Aliexpress resellers add their own fees to buy from Official Taobao store and ship it to you. Their cost to import is very cheap $5/Kg w/ no import tax or...

    Aero has a new leather called Pinnacle

    That is interesting, I would assume the opposite. This is my understanding for cxl in general based on Nick and Phil talking about it. Cxl is technically not full grain, since the top surface gets corrected, so I would assume lux and Milian, Vermont etc would be more picky. But what do I know...
