    Freewheelers Journeyman (Deer)

    Doubt if even a 44 would fit you... my speed master is at least 2 cm narrower in chest compared to Mulholland in the same size.

    Buco J-82 repro

    Thanks. Could you further elaborate the difference you observed? For example, are they more pliable? And about the shine? Speaking of Mobster, I happen to have a current version (2018) Joe Mccoy's Mobster. I like the hide and the boxy cut compared to other Japanese jacket makers. See photo...

    Buco J-82 repro

    I see. Speaking of Harley repro line of RM, have you handled any piece before and if yes, what is your experience? I see there are quite some jackets with good condition and price in those Japanese shopping site.

    Ok guys since this thread has been resurrected and been talking about the Wild One jacket, just would like to mention that Toys Mccoy has going to reproduce this jacket in their coming spring/summer collections. Photos attached.

    Buco J-82 repro

    Many thanks for the information Blackadder! I had this question because I only see steerhide version original pieces, but in this link, https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/c849502798, (although the item is capped as J-27 but it does look like a J-82 to me) RM used horsehide for this...

    Buco J-82 repro

    Dear TFL members, I recently started to get interested in Buco J-82 and have the following questions. Would appreciated any answers/insights. Thanks! 1) Historically, are Buco J-82 only offered in steerhide, or they are offered both in steerhide and horsehide? 2) I see currently that RM is...

    Greg Field vs Himel vs Freewheeler vs Goodwear SHINKI

    Congratulations then! I can feel your thrill. I was waiting for my la brea for 5 months due to COVID. 2019 batch of Mulholland’s quality is very nice. According to limited observation, 2019 batch, generally speaking, tends to have more matching panels, so more evenly distributed grains. See...

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    Hi Robbie, first of all, no offense. but I am also curious that if you don't understand why people buy FW jacket, why would you still like to pursuit a "Mulholland clone"?

    Greg Field vs Himel vs Freewheeler vs Goodwear SHINKI

    I didn’t carry any measurement tools with me but I didn’t notice significant difference on weight/thickness. I also liked the bottom one more.

    Greg Field vs Himel vs Freewheeler vs Goodwear SHINKI

    And I would like to add for Freewheelers, the characters of their shinki leather finish, even for the same name, seem to vary in different time period. I have two FW jackets, both made from their "Black Jack" leathers. The one from 2017 is still quite stiff even with more wears, compared to 2019...

    Thedi now has a website!

    Many thanks! Speaking of Thedi’s horsehide, I noticed that on their new website there are two kinds of horsehides mentioned in different jackets. One is called hand-dyed veg-tanned Italian horsehide leather, another is called aniline-dyed ranger Italian horsehide leather. Do you perhaps know the...

    Thedi now has a website!

    I see, thanks! So I was mainly referring the creasing. I really like the creasing effect, see photos attached (copyright to fellow member @Milesdeathescape ). Does the level of creasing more related to the leather type (if deerskin is generally softer than horsehide, so less creasing?) or as you...
