Yeah, this. When I first saw these pics on IG, I stopped scrolling and stared at the stitching for a good two minutes, thinking Man, I've been unjust to... Wait, who is that, anyway, RMC? FLC? , thinking it's some mega-pricey Japanese maker, before realizing it's Greg.
This is some next level workmanship.
It's not just the stitching. It's also those curved lines.

I don't undestand why people keep on buying RMC, TFH, FW and Himel jackets for more than double the price you pay for a FL...of course he "only" offers a couple of models but he's open for new styles like in my case (heart-shaped D-pocket) and he also agreed to make a Mulholland clone for me in navy blue with contrast stitching
For me, the difference is the very top tier shinki used. I asked Gregg for shinki samples because I am really dying to see the quality of his shinki, hoping that it is top quality. But he does not seem interested in sending me a sample by mail.

from the evolution log, I love the best at +/- 1yr old, after that looks like a downhill with more rough/ raw brown part popping out on the biceps area maybe some maintenance is needed annually, I like more fading in color but not actually losing the grain and end up with progressively exposed suede this reminds me of raw denim evo photos, crazy how fast people wearing out their clothes.

I had to look twice. It's the child of a Type 2 and a type 3. Looks kind of cool except for those handwarmer pockets, those are too much imo.

@MrProper what about this one in russet Pakistan deerskin?

lol
You're right with the pockets.
Nice jacket. Also vicenza or shinki could be nice ;) Maybe an inspiration for Greg?
So far there is no russet deerskin in Pakistan :D

I was planning to get this from 5*, a trucker with buttons and hidden zippers but decided to just go for buttons this time around. I'll go for a main zipper next time for a moto trucker. I asked Greg if he was planning to do a trucker design and he said he will when he gets the button machine

@Jin431 Yes, I think so, too but I‘m still torn if I should order it now or in one year or if I should get the original one and no clone as I‘m not sure how Greg‘s Mulholland would look like. I was sooo close to order and checked all details with him. He would need to make a mock-up jacket first. Would you take the risk? If I order from Greg, then only the navy blue Shinki as I really like it on my „heart-shaped“ D-pocket

I don't think it is a risk if Greg is the one who will make it. We have seen his custom work before, so for me personally I would not be that reluctant.
I love the mulholland and I'm getting one in brown so I'm so interested how this goes because I want a black one too but with zipper sleeves instead.
That heart shaped d pocket really did look super cool and a blue mulholland will be equally as cool if not more because you can wear that anytime anywhere and it will not be too much
