I don’t like wearing double riders, cross zips, anything double breasted or with big collars, no matter how good I think they look when I’m not wearing them
Also nothing with big armholes, or no loose fitting jackets for that matter
I’ve done it, twice now, I thoroughly rinse the jacket after dying it, let it dry off completely then spray a coat of mink oil, brush it in and do another light coat (no brushing after 2nd coat), or I assume you could even set it with something like scotch-guard spray but I haven’t tried that...
That’s not bad at all, thanks!
Considering the low stock numbers that brand produces it’s highly likely I’ll try them out sooner than later cuz I was also considering getting their little wing and having the collar redone to a smaller jacket type collar cuz I think that jacket also looks really...
Nice, I’m currently scouting for one but they’re soo scarce
I’ve been trying to get pics and measurements from the few shops that stock it but most are sold out, so if things start looking grim at least now I know theres this route to consider
And if you don't mind me asking, whats the time &...
It’s tough, I had a bunch of outerwear I loved and had to let go when I moved from toronto to socal weather
The hardest part is getting rid of it, but out of sight out of mind, and best part was I stopped feeling bad/guilty for not giving them the attention they deserved every time I saw them...
One more, when is the next season or restock of fine creek jackets that are currently sold out everywhere?
Do they only do limited quantities a year or are they also having issues lately sourcing quality leathers and only putting out what they can?
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
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
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...
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’m just starting out and getting to know the better leather jacket brands, but these are what I currently have
Clockwise from top left:
- Julius (7), black overdyed light grey lambskin racer (looks black with burgandy undertones), made in japan
- M0851, olive vegetable/aniline cowhide...
