    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    I may not fit either. I found this webpage with a lot of great information on the Centinela. https://www.thewildone.jp/item/freewheelers-centinela-leathertogs-rudeblack-horsehide/?mode=pc Look at that two inch taper from the p2p measurement... I don't really taper much physically and...

    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    So far, here is my experience shopping for a Japanese leather jacket. Standard and Strange has been very helpful with RMC. But the policy is a little odd. I suppose to limit questions from non serious people? Anyways, you have to give them a 50% deposit before they inquire if the size you...

    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    Thank you. I have been looking at sleeve alterations, as I am beginning to think sleeves will be too short on whatever I choose. It is nice to look at something new. Wish someone here in the US/Aero would make this jacket... I know Diamond Dave made one once.

    I saw that Eight ball on Yahoo auctions. It is a new morning with a new pair of eyes. I do like this Eight Ball and I may just go for it.

    Ouch. I am waiting for more information from Standard and Strange. That is sounding more and more the safest option.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I feel like this is cool. I believe it is a vintage Aero jacket. In red. All red... (The Zipper and the Tag throw me off, it could be a new jacket with an old zipper and a dated tag design, I don't know.) https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g397669411

    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    I assume that whichever way I end up purchasing a jacket, it will be measured as most jackets are before I spend money. I unfortunately cannot make a trip to Japan just to purchase a jacket, as awesome as that would be, however it may be possible in the future. (I just remembered that I know...

    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    This is valuable information. I understand the commitment and liability of purchasing a jacket from Japan. This is the only way I know to get a J-31 that I am aware of. P.S. I was looking at Barnstormer earlier today, they list that they ship out of country, and have an English blog page.

    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    The fly to a city and try one on could happen... I was stationed in Yokosuka Japan for a couple of years on the USS Independence back in 1993 to 1995. Japan had a huge influence on me as that was my first duty station in the Navy. I know my Wife would like to visit Japan. I just don't have...

    Who is the expert here on buying jackets from Japan?

    I am considering getting an RMC jacket, one of the Buco jackets, I feel like I am interested in the J-31 in a size 42. The J-31 is like nothing I own, and like nothing else, from my perspective, so I am interested in it. Out of the two that I have found being actively made, I like the RMC...

    I wear a size 42. I have not been able to wear a jacket with smaller than 18 inches in the shoulders, at least with my limited experience.
