Fist impression was, looks pieced together with more a fashion jibe rather than any style. Second and third looks, it still comes across the same IMO. No thanks
I like the color, the sleeve, the collar, the shape of patch pocket, the leather trim around the collar edge and zipper edge and the fact it has double zipGuys, what do you think about this jacket?.
Perhaps seems a little bit weird at a first glance but I think it's a masterpiece without similar competitors (leather + shearling + nylon) out there.

I am very stoked. This is my new pick if I had to keep just one jacket up against a mint Buco J-24 and 1950s white label horsehide Langlitz Cascade. The horsehide is incredible, the closest thing I have is my 50s Langlitz.
It landed today. Tried it on (zipped it wrong for the pics, don’t kill me please I noticed I didn’t put the end of the zipper properly) and the fit is so good! Was very worried about the sleeves lenght.
The sleeves are very tapered. This is the end game. This deerskin is amazing! It’s so luxurious and soft. Now it’s hidden away until Christmas day.

That jacket seems schizophrenic to me. A mix of North Face puffy and distressed hipster leather.Guys, what do you think about this jacket?.

The jacket I ordered from Japan arrived today. The proxy process is very simple, and the international shipping was extremely fast. The slowest process was waiting for my jacket to actually arrive at the proxy warehouse from the original seller. It's steerhide, and I believe the maker is Sugar Cane. The leather shows a fair amount of wear, but the jacket is still very stiff and rigid, which is just what I was looking for. There are a number of nice deals for jackets in smaller sizes on sites like Yahoo Japan, so I'm definitely going to check it again if I decide to switch up my jackets.
@willyto Congratulations! Your new Freewheelers Sunset looks fabulous and the fit is perfect...I know the fit of Japanese makers is sometimes tricky.It landed today.

Beautiful...and a perfect fit to boot! Congrats!
(That's the one thing I don't like about those zippers. Hopefully you were able to unzip with no issues)
Very nice! Perfect fit. Who is the maker?
That looks superb!!! Careful with that hookless and it’ll treat ya right. Nice pick up!
Love the jacket and fit but the mustache game is stronger! Up top!
