After I received my Y'2 HR-55 I put the jacket up for sale within minutes. The fit was perfect but the Leather felt like plastic, completely stuffed with paint also the nylon lining in the sleeves was not to my liking a catch and release jacket...
After the Jacket got really wet in a thunderstorm last weekend, we went for a sunbath today. Really beautiful how the color of the FW Bodie has developed in no time.
FW Bodie again… ;) I really was surprised how quickly the jacket darkened after I got caught in a heavy rain shower last Weekend. Also I read from a Japanese reseller some of his customers took a bath while wearing the Bodie to achieve an even darkening and thus make the deerskin less sensitive...
Terry, it's always an honor for me to receive a compliment from you. Thank you very much for the kind words... much appreciated! Who knows, maybe one day I'll find a vintage leather jacket that meets all my needs... we'll see.
