As I mentioned it is highly subjective, I am in China so it is easily accessible to japanese leather jacket, new or 2nd hand. For the same budget I do recommend Rainbow Country or even double helix. For higher budget I recommend Freewheelers and Real Mccoy. These brands give better payoff than...
Last but not least - shortcomings
Shortcomings here aren't real defects of the Durable One star. Bill Kelso has their own explanations, but customers have different understandings. I would give several viewpoints that worth mentioning.
1. the sleeve is around 60cm, and sleeve of normal leather...
Same style leather jacket in comparison
to compare I yield photos of fine creek leathers Leon (2018 ver. without belt), fourspeed leathers one star jacket, schott 613, RRL leather moto jacket.
I do wanna use Freewheelers La brea as comparison, though they are not in same styel, but my La Brea...
Details
-Talon zipper
-signature one star on each side of shoulder epaulet
-quadruple diamond red lining
-Bi-swing back panels, very important if you workout in gym, straight design is very uncomfortable especially at armpit and shoulder
-corduroy on the hem for better seal and wind-proof
Hi
I am Marco, my durable one star arrived today, I have tried already and write some opinions here, which would be very subjective. I think it is fair enough for a compliment for the jacket and an useful suggestion for people interested.
I placed my order on late September. My Size finalized...
So its possible to do a remake on the jacket? As I read the q&a in Bill Kelso, they seems resisted to highly customized services and prefer one-off business. I would see how things going first, but thanks for the advice. The uncertainty is much higher than expected.
It is my first custom jacket. I have read their q&a and remain supportive for weeks. I do feel worried about the timeline and the process. I may wait for their reply first and see if there is anything wrong.
Have you received the sample jacket from BK for testing? This is my first time to hear about that. It was felt like I chased him for finalizing my size after I placed my order. I work a factory too. It is common to have no inventory in stock, but not possible to be short of ingredients or...
I may wait for their reply first. Patience is needed, yes I agree with that. And they should take the initiative to contact me to confirm the size, customized or regular size and start the process, but not the another way around that I contact them for size confirmation, updates, estimate...
If everything goes right I am okay with it. I placed my order for Mulholland 42 in June, received in October, placed my order for La brea 42 in May, receive in November in estimate. Tenjin Works usually takes a year. When I traveled to their workshop in Kyoto, there is no jacket in stock. They...
