FL Brown full aniline shinki cafe racer. Sleeves are a little short after creasing, entirely my fault as I didn't account for it when I ordered the jacket.
Got it, I'm getting the 18-19 oz black indigo. I don't know what the best length is for me yet. You tend to fold selvage right, so it depends what fold style you would use. I recently got one in 32" inseam and I was able to fold it 3x to get to the desired cuff look.
I got a 5* recently I...
Follow up on my first FL jacket. Full aniline brown shinki Route 66 cafe racer. I love this shade of brown even more than my tobacco badalassi/vintage brown shinki/brown cxl. Would have been perfect if I requested the sleeves to be 0.75" longer as they shrank when the creases/folds set in.
Yes, it also wouldn't hurt to reach out to Thedi directly for his input.
I saw it and I love that shade of brown, definitely not your more common dark brown/black cafe racer. Can't go wrong with that choice of hide.
I saw the olmo cowhide and that looks russet to me, it looks really good with...
I completely agree, can't go wrong with those no matter what
I'm sure you too is as well loved as your good boy/girl haha
Are you kidding me? Why say no to free stuff? That is always welcome in my book. Nothing wrong with that. Always great to get a little something something on the side but...
I don't read or watch stridewise or stitchdown guy but I do apperciate jake and them when they post cool boot photos. I do feel influenced by you guys a bit considering my boot purchases but now I know what I want and what I don't want in a boot. I would say it's really helpful for people like...
I am new to the leather boot game so I only have experience wearing redwings and Truman boots.
I have 2 monkey boots/2 Chelsea Boot/1 service boot right now with 1 engineer boot and 1 dress service boot on the way. The process is the same for all of them so you would reach out to them on...
Perfect fit, love all of this jacket from the color/choice of hide/details/contrast stitching/hardware. Great detailed review. Thank you for sharing this beauty. Congratulations!
*and those boots! Wow
Don't get me wrong the black shinki teacore is a very good looking leather, it's just my preference is on the black horse butt. It feels hefty but is soft against the foot plus the leather rolls instead of creasing.
You know about the aero x Levi's ruff n ready, the other one I'll move on...
I do have the shinki teacore as well. I'm not in love with the leather yet (maybe because it's still so new and has no brown peaking through) but the boots look great. I think for a new out of the box pair, the nero badalassi and Maryam horse butt look better as black options.
I don't think...
You bet! It really is a great looking pattern and seems perfect to your shape.
Thank you, it took a while to get to that fit but now I know my key numbers I've been getting close to the ideal fit for me.
That's a great choice as a cafe racer should be snug to show off the pattern. What leather...
Love the contrast stitching done here! Can't wait to see how the toe box on this pair shape up when fully worn in. Great pick up here!
Yes, I requested a Norwegian stormwelt construction for this one. They also add a cushion on the arch too which is a great touch especially for me since I'm...
The Thedi looks like a great fit already. If you plan to layer then maybe add 1-2" in the body but if you want a trim jacket then just stick with that jackets measurement and you'll look great in it.
The premier HWM looks like it was made for you and to have it in the blackened brown is a...
