Two leathers in use this season, calf and deerskin. The one above is indeed calf. Deerskin looks like a more traditional leather.

$3600 ... can't believe it. Every time I want to consider opening a store I see what retailers charge for Japanese stuff and think it must be impossible to sell them at a fair price T_T


yea it was that one, wasn't there a reverse version as well... eh doesn't matter.

i agree buying a bunch of attachment and re-selling at even 1/2 markup is a nice come up. But one has to have a storefront that can absorb a loss if things don't sell

Speaking of viridi-anne, re-porter has this one and I think it's cool. But I also figure most of you will find it tacky :')

Hmm, just stopped by to see the Attachmeant leathers again. Reverse calf is nice, but they're all quite thin and a bit insubstantial. Did they switch leather supplies this season?

Anyone out there familiar with brands whose RTW jackets incorporate diamond shoulder quilting or pleat details?

I know it's more of an excessive look than seen in most of the thread, but I ride and it wouldn't look out of place on the bike. I like this Joe Rocket riding jacket, but thought I'd see if any quality leather brands made something similar I can invest in:

@ejwoods I wanted to get a RO for a while but didn't want to get one until I could try one on, and where I live that wasn't going to happen. Ended up going in a different direction with what I think is a really nice Belstaff moto, the Kirkham:



It's got some shoulder quilting which is nice, but it's not too much. It's also got a really interesting tumbled texture that adds to the look. Nothing but compliments on it. I don't ride but it wouldn't look out of place on a bike. At the same time, it's easy to wear casually since it's all black the details don't stand out too much.

That's perfect! I wonder if the Kirkham has reinforced stitches throughout the joint areas like most motorcycle jackets?

Always liked Belstaff, didn't realize they had shoulder designs like this!

Really do like the Lewis Leathers 442 posted earlier as well, but this is even more understated.

^ Becks is wearing it so it MUST be cool! :happy:


all saints is awful


No doubt. I stumbled into their boutique over on Melrose or Robertson or something one day just killing time. What a morose, overpriced dump of clothing in only grey, black and possibly brown.

beckham is wearing belstaff. i posted it because guy was talking about quilted shouldered belstaff jackets.

i have never set foot in an all saints shop...and never will.
wouldnt wear their clothes if they paid me.

ideally wouldnt be friends with anyone who wears it...try to weed these people out of my life if i do clock anyone i know wearing it.
