@Jin431 Thanks very much for your detailed feedback - I do highly appreciate that you share your experience with us which helps a lot. Your boot collection is fabulous! I've been chatting a lot recently with Prof Barnets and Sagara Bootmaker regarding Shinki horsebutt, Tochigi cowhide and...
Congrats. What an impressive jacket! I love that 70's vibe. Fit is very good as usual except the wide sleeves as you already pointed out but IMO it's not a big issue. Looking forward to post-ton-treatment pics ;)
@Jin431 Your black Badalassi Benzein Chelsea boots do look lovely! Beautiful grain! As you also have Maryam horsebutt boots if I remember correctly, how would you compare both leathers in terms of thickness/heaviness, grain, softness, smell (I love the Badalassi leather smell) and overall...

@LaomaStri I'm afraid but I have to disagree as far as Thedi is concerned (this is just my personal experience and opinion). You don't have to worry buying "online" from Thedi respectively after talking to the owner Theodoros who's very helpful in order to find the right size and leather for...
@torfjord Congrats, man! Perect fit, looks great on you and I'm glad that you grabbed it as I was indeed close to buy it....but I would have broken my own rules too quickly ;-)
Welcome to the lounge. I‘ve owned about 15 Aero jackets (Badalassi is still my favorite of their leathers but their jerky horsehide is very underrated IMO and not much break-in is needed which also applies for their Vicenza. CxL is probably too heavy for you as you mentioned Badalassi and...
@Marc mndt Thanks! Great review. Actually I've been thinking about buyin Carmina shoes or boots for 5+ years - with your review and the result (I really like the remake with more loden green colour and dark leather soles) I feel more confident to order a pair in the future (when I need new...
Great looking jacket! Super tempting as I was born the same year the jacket was made and basically my size - however three days ago I said that I’m done with leather jackets. I hope you will sell it soon! GLWS!
This depends on your personal preferences. Some of us do like heavy CXFQHH /CXSH other do like light/mid-weigth sheepskin, Vicenza HH, Shinki HH, Badalassi cowhide, goatskin, etc.etc. If I was you I would visit several stores to get a feeling which one you like best as some leathers do look good...
I agree with @Jin431 !! I was searching for one >2 years and can’t wait to receive my grail jacket…if it fits I will probably never sell it (maybe when I’m 70 or 80 haha). This jacket is so unique and if I was you I would rather sell the fashion jackets and would wear this jacket every day. I...
