    Post Thedi Leather Jacket Photos Here........

    Does Thedi allow minor changes when ordering directly or through TB, or can you only play with the measurements and types of leather? Ideally I’d ask for a different zipper puller, maybe swap the cuff straps for snaps or buttons, but most importantly is a slight shape tweak to the jacket’s...

    Yeah searching online I only saw 2 stores in japan that carried sz 34 (but currently sold out) and I was hoping I missed a spot that still has one for sale, just wishful thinking I guess

    Trophy Clothing Deerskin Cossack - 36

    I’ve been hoping it was just a tad smaller since it was posted, lovely jacket indeed I read somewhere (might have been here tbh) that Y’2 made the leather jackets for this brand, which would mean that it’s likely made with Fujioka deerskin

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I’m currently planning my first purchases using one of these proxies, do you recommend one over the other? I’ve heard FJ is cheaper overall and they can negotiate prices on your behalf, albeit only up to 10% off and I’m not sure if it applies to yahoo-jp auctions, but do either of them offer...

    Post pictures of your jacket collection

    I’m not sure tbh, the leather itself is outstanding, full grain on the flesh side and the reverse feels like a mix between waxy nubuck and oily suede, it’s supple and drapes well too Craftsmanship is very good as well, stitching is straight, very dense with consistent spacing throughout, all...

    I have to fill up the bottom row and theres room on both sides to expand before I’d get to that stage, but I was thinking something like this

    What’s up with double helix sleeve length on their sz 36, are they making that size exclusively for guys with t-rex arms?

    Which One Fits Better?

    Second likely fits better but first kinda looks better oversized and doesn’t really make you look any shorter, but I think I’d be worthwhile looking at the back as well, and also consider if it’s mostly gonna be worn open or closed

    vanson is unforgiving in it's stretch

    Forgive me but I’m still on the learning curve here, I’ve only used tandy brand mink oil which was recommended by a good friend who makes small leather goods out of HH and thick SH And tbh it seems to work great softening stiff leather and dulling out overly shiny leather (which I’m not a fan...

    vanson is unforgiving in it's stretch

    Well if you’re not afraid of using some oil, I think the thing that helped break in that comp weight the most was giving it a good rubdown with mink oil then rolling it up and sitting on it for a bit, then I’d unroll it and roll it up again in a different direction and sit on it some more I did...

    1929? Woman’s Western Cossack Jacket “the Jacket Shop” 20s 30s

    I am trying to get a jacket custom re-created - does this style of collar have a name?

    I’d call that a slim peaked lapel (slim compared to a normal pea coat)

    vanson is unforgiving in it's stretch

    Don’t give up hope, when I first got this one in premium comp weight I could barely move my arms enough to zip it up, it definitely requires a workout for the initial break in, but after that it just slowly keeps getting better and better, nowadays I don't find it restricting at all yet it...

    Freewheelers Caboose, Did I get burned? Calling all aficionados...

    I believe they’re more like proxies than dropshippers, they’re doing the same thing on ebay They basically list ítems at a markup that are available in jp, usually stuff listed on mercari, rakuten rakuma or yahoo jp auctions and I’ve even seen some posting stuff from jp second hand stores or...
