if there is only one country that buys and sells massively vintage clothes, it is Japan, not only online but also in the many 2nd hand shops. You must know that 951socal, right ?

Brookland that is fantastic, but when worn open it looks quite bad. Is it the CCP fencing ?

It is. Although I have to admit, I was truly hoping that 951socal would comment on my post and say something like "APC leathers are bad"

No, unfortunately this piece will remain a dream for me. I steer clear of buying clothes that are on a pedestal of mine - they would simply sit in my closet for fear of damaging them. I keep to RO and Julius for my leathers - if something happens, it hurts, but it doesnt kill.
