What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Damn thats an awesome jacket. That color is amazing! What kind of leather is that?

Thanks! They say that it is suede bullhide. I really like it too. It's a pretty rough suede and feels more like roughout than suede.

Hell yeah man. I was gonna say.. the texture looks more aggressive than suede. Very cool jacket brotha!

Yeah that's what I thought as well. Maybe I can ask them when I go back to Japan. They're very detailed at Freewheelers.

@handymike Your Kehoe looks really nice!! I've not really seen black ones when searching for them, only brown ones which were always too big. Seems to be a rare piece in very good condition!

H&M. This jacket is actually almost brilliant. The hide is exactly like Vanson late 90’s naked comp weight (rune?) I think they called it. It’s far too trim in the sleeves and shoulders but I dig it. It’s not until I turn around and the back is on display that it’s true nature is revealed.

Wow! More varied in grain than the one I had. I guess this would be your "friday night out jacket" if you were single Need to flaunt those pythons Any wonky stitching? ....Too soon?

LOL!! The jacket does have the faint smell of a European night club style cologne. I suspect many phone numbers were attempted to be acquired. No data on the success rate.
The hide is actually amazing. I love it.

It really does go to show you can find quality at any price and any level. You can find good stuff if you’re looking at it as quality to a money spent ratio. This is actually pretty killer Tony!

Had they done a little better with the back and not gone so overboard with the shoulders and sleeve diameter it would probably be a favorite of mine. I would say this might be the high water Mark for mall jackets.

My guess is the jacket did it's job and then the relationship weight made him "grow" out of it

The fact that it is a bit larger on you now makes this grizzly even more luxurious.

I've seen some lost in translation instances where Japanese retailers say something is suede when it is actually roughout. For example when I was ordering things off global Rakuten they had red wings which I knew were roughout boots but translated to suede. Not sure if you speak the language better than myself and Google translate but it was a pretty common occurence for me.
