A newly bought G-1 7823D from China and there is a wrinkled due to their poor storage and packaging. Are there any ways to deal with it?

Many thanks.

Just wear it... the wrinkle will either come out on it’s own or more likely be just one of many creases and wrinkles. How does it fit?
Are you otherwise happy with the quality?

Yep, just wear it. Soon it will blend in with the rest of the creases. Fit pics?

Great looking jacket!

Agree that you should just wear it.

My new ELC G-1 was very stiff at first and formed several distinct creases in the back. I worked the leather endlessly, worried that the creases were going to somehow spoil the look of the jacket.

But, in the end, I never got rid of those creases and all the ones that joined them made all that worrying for naught.

Take that jacket and roll it and knead it and soon you won’t be able to tell one crease from another. [emoji846]

As it bothers you, you might try getting it very wet at the area of the wrinkle and working it with your hands. Might work and might not, but it would do no damage and it might help. Otherwise just wear it and develop other wrinkles.
