It certainly is. That long dangling strip sewn into the waist is a dead giveaway! My wife's DRKSHDW's have the same detail.

The indigo feel like any other higher than standard light weight raw denim. You may have some problems with quality in the stitching and construction, while the fabrics are quite nice, how they are put together pales in comparison to apc for reference. My indigo's pocket bags on the from pockets wore through and are not completely gone, and the zipper has been replaced twice. The thigh darting stitching tends to break and come undone, i've had it stiched over small openings multiple times now. With that said, I will probably continue to buy them, since I haven't found a better fitting jean anywhere.

Should I spend the extra $150 to get FQHH on my moto, or just stick with calf?

The FQHH looks real nice, and is undoubtedly tough. However, it's not thick enough to be the real functional tough (i.e.motocycle jacket). I do luck it's dull colour.

The calf is i think slightly thicker, but probably a little less tough than the FQHH.

I'm planning to get it in a darkish brown.

I already have a lamb nappa leather jacket, so i don't want lamb.

Keep in mind that i also plan to get a DR in black at some stage. Either FQHH or calf.

Will you actually be using it to ride? That seems to be the determining factor here, unless I'm missing something.

 

[hendrix]

just for riding around the city.

I wouldn't use any TOJ to ride proper distances. No padding, and the stitching probably wouldn't hold up in a crash. The FQHH isn't actually that thick either, it's been shaved down to just under 1mm apparently.

Both fantastic, love the colours ^

I like that bottom one quite a bit, the top one not at all. Those high shawl neck collared cardigans look decent on no one but the EG models and timboplete.

 

[sexonfabric]

might just stick with an upland or baker jacket. i do like the colour of the guide jacket for summer though!

Have you seen the jackets I'm selling

? I like the second one you posted though

 

[guyapprentice]

navy blue cotton blazer, fits well, i'm just afraid it may shrink since its all cotton, as it fits perfectly off the rack...

 

[Vashin]

maybe don't put it in the wash? dry clean if it needs to be cleaned.

I am attracted to this mainly because of the price (marked down).
