It's just a bomber with modified details. It'd be $550 in suede. Just tell them to cut it slim, give them your pocket designs and colour preference and away you go. [email protected]

I have to say that the jacket looks damn nice in blue but it would be a wee bit too unusual for me

. Edit: BTW can I expect that the quallity is equal to the Brunello jacket or is there a huge difference? I can´t imagin that a jacket that costs $550 has the same quallity as a jacket that is around $4000 or is it really just the branding?

Like the original color much more than the blue one.

I might be interested if TOJ confirm that it can be done.

Looking over that suede a-1 again, looks so good that I'm almost tempted to make a red one once I get my other jacket. I hate seeing nice looking things

The ToJ bomber jackets are individually hand made, are they not? Mine is currently being made, but I imagine the quality would be excellent.

I'm quite certain it can be done.. but I'll have to verify it with Drew and our maker first.

I was hoping TOJ would decline to do that. Now I will have to get 2 more jackets made, one this BC bomber and the other a Betstaff / Brbour style motorcycle jacket

I ordered 2 (only 4 were ordered I think). I told them not to send it yet so I could buy a bag or tee's or whatever but new stuff hasn't come out yet so I won't have pics for a while

Dude you can't expect a 550 dollar leather to be on par with a 4000 dollar jacket. That's nonsense. It's like expecting a TaT suit to be on par with a MTM St. Andrews or something. What you can expect is that it will be substantially better quality than other leather jackets you'd pay 550 for.

Hasn't Drew addressed this "leather quality" issue before? I remember him mentioning ToJ leathers compare really well to $2000 leathers from MMM, Julius, RO etc.
