The FCL Tyler is a reproduction of a prior version of the Lewis Leathers Corsair. Why didn’t I simply buy a Corsair? First, the version of the Corsair reproduced by FCL is not currently made by LL. Rather, the current LL Corsair does not have a sleeve zipper (the Lightening does, but not the Corsair). Second, I dislike the LL patch – this is a deal breaker for me. Third, I prefer Shinki HH over LL HH.
The leather is veg-tanned, aniline finished 1.3 mm Shinki HH. It is quite robust, yet pliable. It is a tea-core HH.
Stellar craftsmanship. The CLIX main zipper is super robust.
I had the sleeves tapered from the elbow to the wrist in order to make the sleeve opening slightly more narrow. A professional leather tailor did the work and it looks original.
Measurements shown in photos.
I live desert adjacent and never wear my leather jackets anymore. Time to thin the collection.
Price reduced to $950 US, plus actual shipping costs (much less than I paid). Paypal friends and family. Buyer is responsible for risks during shipping. Please send any questions by PM (I may not check this thread). Thank you.
