Putting this up for sale as I received some enquiries recently about this jacket.
Made by Attractions co (mostly known for their engineer boots) in Japan. I’m no vintage leather jacket expert but this to me looks a pretty close replica of an Albert Richards grizzly down to the buckle.
Size 38...
Hi Robbie, I have an Attractions lot 500 in black size 38 like this:
https://attractions.co.jp/collections/biltbuck/products/500-01
In pretty much mint condition. Bought 2 years ago from a HK shop.
I’d be looking for ~800GBP. Let me know if of any interest and I can take more detailed...
We had a day of summer here in southern England on Friday, yesterday afternoon was 13c and I wanted to start crying… today 18c overcast with chilly winds… let me tell you that it ain’t that pleasant. To hell jackets, summer is for enjoying the sun, evening walks and eating outside with a t-shirt...
Loose grain (not just grain) is passable on sub $300 boots but on these expensive makes imho is just bad publicity for the brand. I get it they are trying out new leathers and whoops shit happens. I also get we are talking about boots meant to be trashed but still…
I think that’s the seller responsibility to get the item delivered to the buyer, private sales or not. Anyway… if the buyer is ok to bear the risk than yes happy days.
Did you try zenmarket.jp? you can lower up to 10% of the original value.
Isn’t the issue mainly the fact that if it gets lost in the mail you can only claim back the declared value? The insured value in my experience can’t differ from the declared value.
I’m always happy to mark down but I also make sure the buyer understands that if it gets lost I won’t refund a...
I think you vaguely resemble that guy, it’s a sort of IG celebrity. He’s also insane so perhaps some environmental factors are starting to affect you :)
On a serious note, I hope you’ll manage to get out of that situation sooner rather than later.
Thanks but I will never be able to reach that level of greatness. I’m a soft handed office worker, hanging out at the playground over the weekend :P
You are so right. It’s also I think less “unique” than what I think they make it out to be. I mean it’s a pretty generic design. But they have...
Thanks and yes I get what you mean. There is some excess material at the pits probably more visible from the back. It’s the low set armholes combined with the Aero sleeve rotation. My uneducated guess is that it’s a combination of an intentional pattern thing (Boxy 50s cut which I like) and a...
Thanks too kind! It’s a grab and go/no fuss leather jacket. But I like how it fits. In terms of fit when shopping online you win some and lose some (more!) :)
Happy with this. Needed a brown leather jacket, didn’t want to spend a fortune and this came up on the trainee section with the right sleeves and back length. Aero HWM in tumbled brown CXLHH.
Forgot how heavy leather felt, glad I sized up one from my previous HWM. I think this is the heaviest...
Embracing different cuts and patterns imho is the key for variety and happiness in this hobby.
Sometimes I feel certain people are super set on a certain fit or set of measurements and all of their jackets have the same silhouette. Don’t know… kind of boring?
Some cool factor is undoubtedly...
