    Restored Cal Leathers Horsehide Café Racer Project- Patina anyone?

    I'd go with the story that the repairs at the end of the sleeves were from fending off a knife attack. Fantastic jacket and great job by Gwen to take on the work to make it wearable again.

    Does Vincenza Leather have Color Variations?

    I think one of the difficulties in answering this question is that Vincenza has been evolving a great deal since its introduction.

    Does Vincenza Leather have Color Variations?

    My russet had great depth of color, I think if you zoomed into a small area you'd see 3 or 4 shades of brown.

    New Langlitz Cascade

    It's a shame most people have never heard of them. They have removed the Native American image from almost all the lines this year. I'll never have to buy another glove.

    New Bill Kelso model

    I'll add this, if members here had seen the fake Facebook "group" that he subsequently made private, where Andy posted photos taken from here, mocking members, mocking Aero, pretending like it was just a just a group of enthusiasts, I think some of his defenders would reconsider their position...

    New Bill Kelso model

    BK has made public pronouncements that they flatly contradict via email, threatened to sue members here, and have also attacked other manufacturers publicly with pretty strong claims. While the internet is a vast cesspool for this type of talk, we can either let it stand uncontested or attempt...

    New Langlitz Cascade

    Great jacket and fit. Looks like it will be perfect on the bike. It's always hard for a true bike jacket to be equally good for casual wear, it's always a bit of a compromise.

    Are his quoted prices in Canadian or US? If they are Canadian than they are substantially less, if they are US, still lower than Victory.

    I agree and I am sure that no foreign company is going to extend credit which means you need to have working capital in order to maintain stock levels.

    Exactly. In the realm of makers we speak of, BK is the HIGHEST price. Not withstanding the fact that according to them, 8 out of 9 available leathers are currently out of stock.

    According to their website, all jackets currently only available in Liberty Russet. Or, if you don't like that, they also have Liberty Russet.

    Thank you. I know what you mean. Sometimes these things cannot be quantified in any other way than just "you need to see it and hold it in your hands..."

    Having never owned a Shinki jacket myself, can you tell me which characteristics you like?

    The two examples in this thread are a really stunning shade of brown. Brown can be so blahhhh if the color isn't just right. http://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/diamond-daves-reproduction-buco-j-100-unlined-racing-shirt.74899/page-2

    New Goodwear / Diamond Dave Cafe Racer

    To each their own I suppose. I'm just happy that there is some branching out in styles. I guess if the fit of a J-100 is just right it's going to be good on a bike, but it's nice to have more options.

    Believe me, I thought of you as soon as I saw this, for better or for worse.

    New Goodwear / Diamond Dave Cafe Racer

    No, I understood, my point was that it's not a Brooks reproduction, they took elements from multiple jackets. Outside of original Bucos, (and even those are comparably priced with top repro makers) almost all jackets sell on the used market for substantially less than their new repros. My...
