    Heritage Shops in Amsterdam ?

    There's a shop called Black and Blue but it's not in Amsterdam. But maybe you can get on the train if you are so inclined. https://www.black-and-blue.nl/

    What would you buy today (if money was no object)?

    Which tannery is that? Damn. Amazing leather. Like something out of a zombie film.

    If we're unifying this into its own thread, then I will repost his D pocket.

    Electric Leather Studio

    Absolutely amazing @red devil - thanks for putting me onto this. I would want the lightning, twist and church. I would like to go out there and order myself, maybe in 9-12 months' time. I was thinking of hiring an interpreter because you say the guy does not speak any English. It's interesting...

    Which of your jackets gets the most attention?

    Interesting. Who did it first? Lewis or Vanson? I'm guessing the former.

    Badalassi cowhide jacket makers?

    I would like a jacket in the badalassi ortensi. Who could make me up a jacket in that leather? SB? http://www.aacrack.co.uk/tannnage-ranges/badalassi-carlo-s-r-l/badalassi-carlo-minerva-box-ortensia-15-17.html

    Mushman's Club Harley Jacket "Daredevil"

    I'm completely amazed by "Electric Leather Studio" brand which @red devil pointed me to. I feel like I must fly out to Japan to get measured up and have about five jackets made up. What's stopping me? Oh yeah, that thing called money. Drat!

    Which of your jackets gets the most attention?

    what is this jacket? it has what looks like a napoleon pocket, which is quite rare and more reminiscent of the lewis leathers bronx, although I know this is not an LL.

    Lapel issue - deforming and "prism-ing".

    Sure it's not what a biker concerned about safety would wear on the bike now (although I think some still do) but as you say it's meant to be "heavy duty" - in contrast to what I mean when I say "fashion jacket": something from Top Man, All Saints, high street crap like that. I own another LL...

    Lapel issue - deforming and "prism-ing".

    So what do you think of this "characteristic"? Are you disappointed? I personally do not feel like I could purchase a jacket which is "thin glossy" hide. It looks and feels like a fashion jacket, but LL is meant to be about rugged motorcycle heritage. More to the point the lapels do this...

    Lapel issue - deforming and "prism-ing".

    It's not happening on my two other LLs or any other LL I have handled. To compound the problem, this particular batch of horsehide seems quite lightweight, meaning that it flares out even easier, and making the jacket in question feel not worth the price tag. I know that batches of horsehide can...

    Lapel issue - deforming and "prism-ing".

    The stitching is not undone. But the two pieces of leather forming the lapel don't stay together; they separate, forming a space inside the lapel, which then looks deformed. Does that link work?

    Lapel issue - deforming and "prism-ing".

    This is weird. Factory new jacket - the two pieces of the lapel leather on one side are not "stuck" together - instead both are flaring out away from each other, creating a "prism"-shaped void (think: Toblerone) and a crease on the inside lapel leather. This also looks weird when the jacket is...
