Wanted to buy: Shinki Horsehide Jacket Approx Size 36-40

[Retserrof]

Hi everyone,

Been following Japanese auctions, eBay, local classifieds (I'm in Australia) looking for a used Shinki horsehide single rider style jacket in either brown or black. Of those in my budget, some I have been too slow, others not quite the measurements I'm after. The sort of style I'm after is often done by Joe Mccoy, Real Mccoys or similar.

Trying my luck here being mindful of my budget and measurements below:

Budget: Roughly $750 USD (~$1100 AUD) ideally shipped but open to opportunities.

Rough Measurements:
Shoulders: 43.5-45cm straight measurement (~17.1-17.7in)
Back length from neck seam: 59-60.5cm (~23.2-23.8in)
Front drop: 3-4cm (~1.2-1.6in)
Armpit to armpit: 52.5-54cm (~20.7-21.3in)

Thank you for any opportunity.

Thank you, I've been watching marketplaces for the last couple months and it seems size 38 has most commonly met my sizing but have seen both 36 and 40 fitting too pending brand.

Thank you for showing me this. I've had my eye on this model before but the back length is a little too long for me.

Can I ask, is this colour what a broken in redbrown/russet goes to? It's absolutely beautiful

Still no luck with a Shinki jacket. Am still keeping an eye on the market.

Look for a schott Japanese horsehide. Well within your budget

Thank for the suggestion. I have looked into Schott but they seem to be longer for the size. Is there an obvious way to know if a Schott jacket is shinki if a listing doesn't specifically mention it?

I think they have a jh prefix in the model number. Send Canuck panda(Tom) a message , he knows everything

Thanks for posting this one! Not quite what I'm looking for in terms of colour and pocket style. Although it looks like you've got interest from another member. I appreciate you reaching out though!
