    Harley Davidson Cross Zip by Vanson in Size Large (L)

    Right. And that's why I provided you a confirmation that it's not. "I'm not sure if this is Vanson's new competition weight." I was merely giving you additional information, I wasn't saying that you were wrong as you clearly indicated that you weren't sure.

    Harley Davidson Cross Zip by Vanson in Size Large (L)

    This is made by VANSON for the HD Bar & Shield collection. It's not their competition weight. It's a US cowhide that was upgraded using tumbling and staking techniques and the "satin" finish was specified by HD in-house designer. I have both the jacket and the vest. For some reason, the...

    Price of Y'2 and Double Helix Works in Japan

    Hi all Are prices of brand new Japanese brands leather jackets cheaper at the physical stores in Japan? In particularly, Y'2 and Double Helix Works Type 1 and Type 2 Horsehide jackets. If so, where can they be purchased in person around Tokyo? Thanks!

    Vanson Harley Cycle King Review & Question

    Just confirmed with VANSON that my cycle king 2022 run was made with their competition weight steerhide with thicker split and heavier wax, hence, it's stiffer and shinier than say the C2.

    WTB Y'2 HR-55 size 38

    Leather does not stretch so if your armpits areas are tight, then they will always be tight. The leather will get broken in after you wear it for a while and it kind of molds to your body with creases and folds that conform to your body. But the jacket will not get roomier. It sounds like you...

    I had similar experiences over the years. Academia undergoing renovation, corporate offices relocating and such. Disposal or liquidation of all the old furniture including Eames chairs in various colors and bases, George Nelson action table and shelving units, Florence knoll credenzas and...

    What seperates "golden era" from "midcentury"?

    That reminds me of the situation between Eames and Bertoia on the wire chair. Though some suggested that it originated from the design of the Eames LCM and DCM when Bertoia was working at Eames. The Bertoia diamond chair in particularly the wide diamond is gorgeous and ergonomically brilliant...

    “Golden Era” modernists

    I am compelled to mention Le Corbusier in terms of "ahead of his time" or "defining the future". I am still seeing current generation of architects "borrowing" his Villa Savoye design all over the places...

    What seperates "golden era" from "midcentury"?

    Evidently, Breuer was inspired by the tubular steel frame of the Adler bicycle to come up with the idea of using tubular steel for the furniture. Breuer is one of my favorite architects/designers and the original Whitney museum is simply hauntingly and quietly breathtaking. I spent a day at...
