Note: FW doesn’t produce Leather Jackets atm. La Brea’s RRP was Yen 390000.
Sold out anywhere, The market for FW leather jackets has completely dried up.
When was the last time you saw a La Brea of this size on the market?
This is from early Leather Batch, much more grain and nicer leather overall in my opition than later batches.

A few words about my pricing policy: I do not make any business or even make a profit from the sale of the leather jackets I currently offer. I am the first owner. My price reflects the current value on the used market. I am aware that the leather jackets I offer are not bargains. But the interested buyer knows how to appreciate the value and quality. Here is an example of what FW leather jackets are currently on the market. This was also confirmed to me by a reseller.

"We were told that they have difficulty on sourcing the finest quality thick horsehide leathers. But thin horsehide are easy to find, they don't want to lower the quality for only making more money. So they insist on only producing the best quality leather jackets but unfortunately not enough quantity with limited leathers.

So far, The Freewheelers Co. is not able to give the estimated delivery time. Unfortunately the price will increase, because the Japanese yen is so weak, all sources became more and more expensive imported to Japan according to The Freewheelers Co. Full price will be $3150 for size 36 to 42 e.g. for a Mulholland."
