That is why I am scared to ask in that thread.

But if IIRC, ToJ really limited their offerings of the DR, I don't even think it's available in calf, just lamb.

Yeah...the visible branding on the tongue isn't the best thing ever, either.

And re: the jacket, I'm not crazy about the extra zips or the zipper pulls on that one, at least not compared to the ToJ DR. Didn't they - at least at one point - do washed or blistered lamb?

Yeah they did, someone is selling on at B/S right now too, it's just not my size. And it's of the older DR too iirc.

I see a lot of mediums and large on sale either at SuFu or ebay. I've seen a size small once in ebay but the seller had low rank and when I messaged him he didn't respond. Oh well.

you don't ask in the thread you email charly who will answer your question asap since that's his job i mean they said no colors other than black for the dr but i have a red one, someone has a green one, someone has a russet one in horsehide, etc, etc. asking questions does no harm.

Someone on Sufu wants 1500 for his size S. Not a steal but IMO it's worth it.
