Update: have discovered a Brakeman in what looks like my size. Sorely tempted – there can't be many left.
Normally take a 40 in Aero, Eastman etc. Can anyone suggest what I should shoot for in Japanese sizes?
An update: contacted Freewheelers and sadly they are completely out of stock, although they made vague mention of another round of production. Hard to tell whether any of the other dealers listing the jackets actually have them.
RRL has its yearly sale on, so I went and raided the London store yesterday. As usual, I came away with some lovely shirts at half-price (costing what they really should, not the inflated usual price) and tried on a few of the leathers. They do feel solidly made but what's striking is what felt...
Impressive, Sloan: that's a beast of a jacket. Looking forward to those fit pics.
And hope you get the cold weather to wear it. This weird climate ain't good for jacket fans.
Thanks, Sloan.
Yes, have had my eye on the Himels for a while but they're among the most expensive jackets out there.
The only think I don't like about them is the lining showing on the collar. Would want all leather collar. Clean lines! People often seem to get this wrong.
Superfluous, I've been having a web scour but can't see mention of it (apart from Rakuten) so if you could specify the retailers, would be much appreciated.
