On sale right now for $206.50 + an additional 15% off with promo code NOV0410.


Thanks, this looks awesome and there's even a black color (maybe cooler) but I kinda like the ASOS's detachable hood and its price vs polo ($80 w/discount and free shipping as opposed to $175 + shipping). Wish I had more money.

Yeah I'm not sure that I understand the impetus / guiding trajectory behind your recent kops, nn. Is it "acquire as many goods made of leather as possible"? And on off days wear WJK sweats.
I think only ultimate gigolos can pull off white leather shirt.

Not sure how I feel about leather shirts, as I am partial to leather jackets. While I can't help that the idea of a leather shirt makes me feel dirty, the ones being offered by ma+, wjk, and other Japanese brands seem alright. Mainly because they are cut really well and stray away from the dirty guido look.
Interesting idea wearing it traveling though, would be cool to see what kind of battle scars it'd develop from your journey.

CCP did some nice ones as well, iirc. While I think it can be done, I don't think it'd really fit with the rest of your wardrobe, the ones that pull it off well tend to be ninjas

I was honestly gonna wear it with a pair of cargo shorts, guidi lambskin boots (which I use for traveling), and a pack of hanes t-shirts
think it might be good to travel with when I dont wanna mess up nice jackets

I have a similar tufted jacket from polo of a few seasons ago and it's an absolute workhorse, esp for the price. I got it for around $150 and I absolutely love it.
