Cuffs: Not sure if I would be so quick to call this a qualm, but the lack of stitching around the cuffs makes the leather a bit more balloon-y than I feel it needs to be. The leather is so (wonderfully) thick that the rolling of the cuff back on itself as it attaches to the sleeve liner causes it to press into my wrists a little. My point is, if it were stitched around the cuff, the leather would probably lay more flat. I'm guessing the leather will naturally crease more and more around the cuff opening with use to become unnoticeable. Compared to yet another unnamed Japanese brand J-100 jacket (which I don't own but did try on in the store), the single layer of cowhide in the gusset folds away nicely where I cannot feel it against my arm when zipped shut.
Mine looked like that too when it was new. You're right, once it breaks in, it will crease and lay flat and certainly become more comfortable as time goes on.
This is what mine looks like now:
Great choice of liner! The way it picks up the color of leather is very subtle and tasteful.This is art. Im in love.

That buffalo hide looks so nice and the contrast stitching just pops! Is the hide as thick and supple as the Italian horsehide model? If I didn't have a custom Aero seven ordered already (part of the July allotment batch) I would have seriously considered another Thedi in the espresso!
