Update on the brown aniline cafe racer. I hope Greg brings it back, I'll definitely get one again if he offers it.

It got wet after this photo and it's looking better than ever but don't have time to take photos yet

Awesome evo! Greg told me he’s hoping to get more brown aniline Shinki in 5-6 months. I’d love a Surrogates jacket made out of that hide!

Jin431 said:

Yes! The color is getting more even (darker) so that's cool to see and the crease/folds are so nice. I'm in love with this leather, I want another jacket with this hide if he offers it again.

What's a surrogates jacket?

It’s the jacket Bruce Willis wears in the 2009 sci-fi movie Surrogates.

He needs to find a good place to have it shortened maybe we can point him in the right direction lol




Just reached out to Greg about it and he is still undecided as he cannot guarantee uniformity of the hide and if it's the right shade of brown that he wants but he is getting more care from his supplier so hopefully that translates to getting the correct brown aniline leather.

He did say he is ordering enough of antique brown shinki for 2 jackets. It looks like something @red devil would wear in that it has a lot of red into it.
