Diamond Dave - Buco J-21

...and the front drop too! That should cover any length issues from the front.

I love it!
And the remake will be made in this pattern! Actually it is already made. It will be sent upon the arrival of the old jacket.
Yeah! I'm a happy boy.

Nice upgrade, I'm still waiting my J-100... [emoji22]

When will yours land Speedy? What did you end up choosing, tea core,or black?

 

[SpeedRcrX]

I choose his tea core

 

[Bunyip]

Great choice. When is it due?

 

[SpeedRcrX]

Should have been ready this week, so I hope to have good news in the incoming days.

That's great news, I can't wait to see it!

Same here! Would love to see it!

Why those pleats ..?

 

[Monitor]

Why those pleats ..?

Pleats? You mean action back?

 

[41eiffel]

Pleats? You mean action back?

yes, looks like an elastic Buco

I think that's just the photo. The back config is just as an original. Full action back. The leather looks gathered a bit at the kidney panel but surely no pleats or elastic there.

I like how the left side pocket is in on the side panel!

Map pocket, actually.

I really dig this new pattern. And I like the drop on the front. Looking forward to seeing it worn.

 

[Carlos840]

Map pocket, actually.

I wonder if the pocket bag is in the front or in the back?

 

[A-1]

It's in back. Behind your back actually. It's quite a great pocket I think.

Shipping to the US is driving me crazy! It's been three weeks and the jacket has only just landed on American soil. Come on really, DHL and USPS!?!?

Believe me, sending things over the other way is no picnic either.

I sent a jacket from the USA to Greece (yes, back to BK) to have a repair done...sent out on January 6th--arrived February 8th. Oy!

 

[Dickie Teenie]

Ha, I had a letter sent from the American Embassy in Athens to my residence 10 miles away and it took fifteen days.

 

[A-1]

Well, we'll see. It's not there yet. Three weeks 21 days and counting, still in Jersey. 24 hours ride from Tulsa, OK.
