Need some help!
I‘m looking to grab this Promised Land jacket by Naked Sun at Masphalto
http://www.masphalto.jp/smartphone/detail.html?id=000000006880&category_code=ct723&sort=order&page=1

Anybody have an opinion on the Naked Sun brand based out of Tokyo?

Ideallly I’m looking for a Freewheelers Little Wing jacket but who knows when they’ll release that again. This Iooks like the next best thing. Should I hold out for the Little Wing or grab one of these Naked Sun Jackets.
Any opinions are appreciated!
Cheers!!!

I've seen this jacket being sold under Bootlegger brand, Jelado brand and now Rising Sun brand. All in very different leather. Fujioka deer, goatskin, Badalassi Lux...etc.

The sizing is very trim. Size 42 is 53cm P2P, and 44 is 55cm.

If my guesses are correct, this very pattern is OEM made by the Electric Studios leather workshop. If that is the case, I am also not sure if you can order this jacket directly from the workshop because it might conflict with the marketing brands.

There is an Electric Studio thread here. He is also on instagram. These multipanel / lots of stitching jackets seems to be what he does. I remeber there was a price quote in the thread. It's high but reasonable for Japanese brands.

I would highly recommand going for a lightly used one on the yahoo auctions. The resale on these repro jackets aren't great, except the original Musical ones of course.

Thanks a million!!! I’m going to check that all out. This one is slightly different than the Freewheelers one, but that’s some great leads! Cheers!!!
