How's the armpit
Ripped, and then I tried to patch it up with some black shoe cream.

I still like the Hamburglar comparison more. This is just mean spirited ?
If a man owns it, then it’s a “men’s jacket” and if a woman owns it then it’s a “woman’s jacket.”Question: Is this a men's or a women's jacket? It's a 3.1 Phillip Lim lambskin biker. Seller in Japan says it's a "US size 2" ... I think he's confused.
What say you?

re: mens vs wimmenz on a hangar look at how far the sleeves drop below the hem
also the taper from chest (or bust) to waist

Looks to be a men’s jacket, it closes left side over right. Women’s jackets close right over left.
Ahh, good to know. Cheers!I say it looks like an extremely generic Perfecto-style jacket made of unimpressive leather.
That rule does not always apply with leather jackets, especially not with moto cross-zips. For example, all women's Schott Perfectos, except for a few fashion jacket-oriented ones, fasten left over right. They're still not interchangeable with a men's jacket, though, because they're cut very differently.

That really is stunning. Can you get it without the badge? I seem to remember that being a possibility when I looked at them some years ago. That leather also looks great, very shinki-esque from that one pic. I'm torn on the contrast zipper tape. It looks good in that application but I'm not sure I'd get it like that.Looks nice enough though it’s weird to me that they included some Lewis brand signatures (beyond the jacket design itself) like the sleeve pocket.
I’d personally much rather get an actual Lewis Leathers Dominator in their new black veg tan leather which compares very favorably to Shinki. The workmanship on theirs is incredible too (the reborn Lewis is one of the rare cases where the person who bought out a classic IP improved the quality.)
There's a long discussion of this leather on Fedora Lounge as well.
