Lol I should be taking a commission on these by the sounds of it!
I was this close...got scared when I looked at their other offerings. If somebody ends up with one they have to post it up.Lol I should be taking a commission on these by the sounds of it!
Me too, the "orange" one looks very nice and for that price you can't go too wrong. I am very tempted, gonna have to do some measuring first.

Oh man I'd love to see it. I had it in my cart all ready to go and then chickened out.So I did put in an order for one of these when the offer was on again recently.
Took a bit longer than expected to arrive but did arrive safely couple of weeks ago and is a very nice jacket for the price. The leather is super soft but reasonably substantial and weighty, the wooden buttons are a nice touch.
If I were picky the only down point I could fine was one of the inside pockets seems to have some inner lining stitching running through one corner - I don't know if this is part of the 'design' or a mistake but it just means one of the inside pockets isn't a square shaped pocket, so not really a big issue.
The fit is quite trim and more so for me in the shoulders - It fits but only over a t-shirt, and given its not a super light jacket I don't know how much wear it would get. I've been on the fence with it for a week or so as to whether to keep it or not as I was hoping it would be more of a summer weight jacket, but its a bit too heavy/substantial for that.
I'll try to upload some photos later.
But I have to:Ton, just go with the Thedi already......
LOL...I thought we were talking about the ali express jacket No doubt about the Thedi...the zip version. I need to pull the trigger soon.Thing is- The BK and Thedi are different jackets. Knowing how you like the cut and fit of your cross-zips, I think the Thedi is a better match for you. This BK jacket has a different fit.

I'll take it! PM me when you're readyIt really does look just like the photos on the shop links, with perhaps just a bit more colour to it, probably the side on photo below reflects the colour best.
I've tried to take a couple of shots on the self timer... Most of them came out like the first here so respect to those of you who do this well
But there are a couple of ok ones.
If it were a size bigger or at least bigger in the shoulders/chest I'd likely keep it but at is it I'll probably sell it on. I think the fit looks okay but I know from experience arm/sholuder snugness would bug me when driving and such. It will likely appear on eBay/in the classifieds in a while I feel.
