How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

[Mrfrown]

The jacket arrived, the leather and cut are nuce and the stitching is tight. It's fairly cropped, but this is my first bikers style so maybe that's normal.

A lot of the older moto jackets are shorter (true of a lot of vintage styles) because higher-waisted pants and tucked in shirts were more the norm.

Jacket looks nice!

Wear it in good health.

The quality of Bally has gone down over the years. My parents live in Switzerland and love the brand. If you walk into the second hand stores there and look at the Bally bags and things, the leather use to be so nice and thick and their name was built on high quality leather craft.

Unfortunately now they are owned by a large chinese/hk company and their quality is more mainstream.

How do you find the quality on this one as compared to your expectations?

It looks good overall

It does look good. The only thing that would bug me personally is the flag but other than that the design looks nice and the fit on you is great.

So, are chest seams and pockets too much?

Nope. I dig it.

I specifically asked for a front yoke on my Langlitz.

I like it with and without chest seams + pockets.

Looks also good in this combination. Didn’t know that Theodoros offers Shinki

Ken is working on some Type 3 jackets, I emailed him asking about it and he sent me this picture. Apparently they are going to do a run of suede and a washed wool lining (not Troy Mills) type 3s, and Ken made this jacket to test how it would look. It took me about 3 seconds to hit that reply button. Like the image below but with more polite phrasing:

Edit: removed incorrect references to “pattern test”. This jacket was to test the combination of suede and the wool lining, not to tweak the pattern. Apologies for that, just me being confused and using the wrong word.
