    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    This brand calls the winchester “promised land” and the smoke “glory days”, so apparently all songs by the boss. I just referenced it as little wing since that’s what I’ve seen most people here reference that model. In the same vein I don’t get why ew called its barnstormer by that name, since...

    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    It’s exactly the same and I thought that was weird too when I first popped the collar and saw it, it doesn’t have the stash pocket on the back of the collar though, but their little wing (promised land) does.

    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    About the fit: Fits slim overall with a cropped back and front drop, I’m a slim 36 with an athletic build and I like a slim fit but not sausage casing tight either, I usually wear 36 in tfh or fw, but for example I size down to a 34 in rc or vanson, for this one I went with a 38 and it fits me...

    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    About the craftsmanship: Pretty good imho, nice dense stitching throughout, no obvious **** ups in stitching that I could find, all brass hw feels beefy and works great, lining is all cupro. It’s not perfect as no jacket is, it doesn’t have those sleek almost flat cross sections of stitched...

    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    About the brand: Not much info out there as far as I could find, publicly they state it was started by a former fcl employee, but the company that makes these is called “ego brain” which I believe is not the same as the one that makes fcl which iirc is called “creative works”. Other folks have...

    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    About the leather: So it’s described by the brand as buffalo hide that has been heavily infused with fats and oils to around 5mm then split down to 2mm. It feels thick, heavy, dense yet very pliable, to me it feels similar to thick deerskin except way heavier and more chewy rather than spongy...

    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    So I stumbled upon this jacket while browsing for another jacket and I really really liked it, so I read up what I could find out about it, which wasnt much, and I emailed the stores that still had stock in my sz for pics with measuring tape. While viewing their replies I quickly realized what...

    Brand/Jacket review: Naked Sun thunder road in redblack buffalo

    Hi guys, I’m still kind of a noob here, and this is my first review, so please bear with me. I had already typed a long thorough review but on one of the many breaks I was taking while writing it up the browser crashed or something and I lost most of it, so instead of writing it all up again...

    Thanks! I just received it but planning to do a full review since I couldn’t find any info here, or much info at all anywhere online, when I was doing research on it.

    How do the jp shops (like Masphalto, Barnstormers, etc) usually ship your jackets? (Like spread flat, lightly tucked or fully folded for example) And, do the proxy service providers open and re-box your jackets or do they just fwd it as is?

    Needed help for freewheelers leather mulholland sizing

    what size is your bodie? My measurements are close to yours and I’ve been considering a bodie but also struggling between szs 34 & 36. Also, I’ve only seen brown deerskin bodie’s and I like it, but do you, or someone else here, know if it was also made in other colors or hides/skins? Which...

    Fit Check Thread for Jackets

    First fits you better, but personally not sold on the bottom pocket placement or neck strap. Second one is not a flattering fit on you, looks just a bit too loose.
