Looks uncomfortable

There is a Russian saying, literal translation to English of which is "beauty requires sacrifice".

Incarnation jackets can be somewhat rough and even uncomfortable in the beginning but once broken in - they become your second skin. Isn't that true with some good leather shoes too?

I would agree, but I think he was referring to how tight it looks. I can't imagine being comfortable in something that fits that slim.

really love how you can custom order an incarnation for a little over 2k in the US... pretty worth it if you ask me. as long as you aren't picky about the nature of object dyeing and stuff.

exactly, here the model looks he cannot breath. And every leather jackets will strecth with wear, but Incarnation are pretty thick and I wouldn't say that thet become your second skin with time....they feel more than an armour than a 2nd skin (at least the aclf and baby calf ones)

My calf one broke in pretty well and I wear it with comfort.

What's up sinnedk :) I've heard about that brand but haven't owned anything. I see that it's quite popular on this forum.
