    Did Schott buy Shinki? Another Shinki STYLE: P617H

    I saw this on the gram and immediately pulled the trigger without hesitation and I’ll tell you why. I bought the Schott Shinki cafe racer last year with a very similar lining and the Shinki is unlike any other I’ve gotten before. It’s quite thick but also very pliable and soft with amazing color...

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

    Just wanted to double back on this as it all worked out. After getting the jacket I immediately reached out to both the seller and grailed administration with my concerns. Grailed requested that the seller and I reconcile the issue before they get involved. After sending pics and explaining why...

    thats actually a great idea. I have the sleeve measured at about 22 inches. I cant imagine Freewheelers would have ever made it with such short sleeves.

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

    Yeah I immediately filed a complaint and today Grailed emailed me asking for photos of the altered jacket. I remain hopeful. I havent mentioned the Grailed sellers store name, yet, in case things turn around and they do the right thing. I offered to exchange it for something of equal value but...

    Yeah I told myself the last time I bought something on Grailed it was the last time unless from a USA based seller. That damn dead leaf brown though, calling with its siren song.... I couldnt resist.

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

    what if he removed and reattached the sleeves without changing the length, just destroying the jacket in the process. in that scenario it wouldnt have mattered if there were measurement pics with tape. In my opinion there are two separate issues here. One is about sizing. This isnt about sizing...

    Here are shots of the stitching from the reattached cuffs..... is there any way this was stock from Freewheelers? its so crooked it looks like they closed their eyes and just hoped for the best. You can see old stitch holes. when you look inside the cuffs at the stitching along the flannel...

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

    you know freewheelers better than most anybody. the seller is trying to tell me that the short sleeves are from the 2016 model and that they werent shortened. He says that in 2016 Freewheelers made the sleeves super short. I think he is making excuses but dont want to immediately discount the...

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

    Actually i did request the measurements, he was just vague about the arm length. what if the seller had removed the cuffs and then decided the sleeves were the right length and reattached them, super janky, crooked stitching, looks like Dave Himels dog Opal did the sewing, that would have had...

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

    so now I will post pics of me in my Caboose size 40, in Black jack. and to be clear the seller has insisted that the Dead Leaf Brown size 40 he sold me is COMPLETELY UNALTERED. He maintains that this is a stock, unaltered size 40 Caboose in Dead Leaf Brown. Here is my Black size 40 for...
