Aye! You're right, it doesn't have the sleeve zip gusset. I didn't notice that at all. So that would make the Kensington a really accurate repro.
But there's another rather distinct feature Himel, and now ELMC does, which is the sleeve zipper piping, so to call it - or rather, they're not having the sleeve zippers tape exposed. Like this:
You rarely get to see that so I wasn't sure if that's what is being mentioned here.

Our promotional offering of the ELMC J-100 has been outlined in our affiliate thread now. Thank you for your kind consideration.
I really like the piping on the main and sleeve zippers!

Looks like there is room for another J-100.

Monitor, the green Thedi you posted at the beginning of this thread is irresistible: it is the exact shade of a U.S. dollar.

Love this Thedi but I have too many jackets as it is and it would be a bit too experimental for me to justify the price....
I did get the leather samples and it is a gorgeous colour.

+1 - this is the only "color" that I think I could pull off, maybe...
