    Searching for natural veg tan

    Well the way I think about zipped sleeves is that it's a straight up improvement over other kinds for two reasons: 1 . Can zip them up to be warmer and keep the wind out of your sleeves (rarely useful, unless you ride). 2 . More forgiving fit. Nothing will help if the sleeves are too short. But...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    That's the nicest Type 1 in leather that I've seen so far. Who made it?

    Comparing how they fit. I definitelly like how the brass one fits better. It feels better. Looks cooler. Shame about the sleeve width. Will most likely keep only the brass one, no point of keeping the nickel one just for the wider sleeves.

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Here's a bit of a Vanson visual dump. Two Model B jackets, one in the Z150 leather (nickel hardware) and I assume the other one is in comp weight (brass hardware). Both size 34. The one with brass hardware is much older, more loved/used. Came from Japan. It is also 3cm shorter in length than the...

    If you had to choose only one leather jacket...

    Bye bye Vanson Model B then.

    Leather jacket (black/brown) hardware : brass or nickel?

    Lighthearted poll. Let's get this cleared up once and for all. I know there are other hardware options (gunmetal, etc...). I know there are other leather colors. But keeping it simple with black and brown jackets, brass or nickel hardware. Your vote matters!

    The Y2 looks almost exactly like a Vanson enfield with slighly different chest pocket placement?

    I thought that Kakishibu is rather a specific tannin, not a dye? Seems to be both.

    Searching for natural veg tan

    Good job composing your 1st thread, well written, with links, etc.. Welcome to TFL! TS moto is not natural veg tan. All 3 other options are great. Check out Mister Freedom as well, especially their Campus jacket. Why are you against zip sleeves? I prefer them over any other type of cuff...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    It is here boys! If my existing Model B was a solid 8/10 with a few flaws then this one is a 10/10. Is this my initial hype and excitement talking after receiving the jacket on the same day? Yes, but who cares. Z150 upgraded to proper CW (as far as I can tell). Thick, heavy, soft, fully broken...

    Not a single full back photo? Interesting choice.

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Ok the seller responded that the waist is 46 laid flat, which means it will be like a bag on my waist. I'll skip it, not worth the 400eu gamble. Hope someday I can order of find something that has laces up to the waist..

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    @Mandarin What's the backdrop on yours? 1-2cm? Also what's the chest to waist to bottom proportion of yours? My main concern is that the chest would be ok, the bottom hem would be ok, but the waist would be too wide. I need the back to taper quickly to the waist and then stay more or less the...

    Thinking about picking this one up from Japan: https://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/g1120226428 If I understand correctly there is currently a 20% discount for Yahoo auctions on Buyee: https://media.buyee.jp/lp/en/campaign-en/yauction-2401-en/ Meaning I would get it for ~250eu + ~50eu shipping...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    @Blackadder Looks like those Lone Wolf boots have a very lovely wide toe box, must be very comfortable. What width are those boots?
