Interesting jacket, never heard of Kadoya before.
Seems pretty riding oriented as opposed to off-bike casual use.
They seem to be around 700-800eur new in JP so 600eur for a 2nd hand is not a very good price, although you're skipping shipping costs and import costs from JP.
Here's one that was 250-350eur in JP:

Here's one size smaller (M) for 250eur:

But here's my favorite part - finally a brand that CLEARLY lists measurements including waist and bottom hem width!
That's simply shocking to me personally. Note - this is a size chart for a different model from them.

Please provide a follow-up, would love to hear it!

I understand you. In my cases, I used rubbing alcohol and sometimes vintager mix with water. The problem with mold is the moisture in the leather that keeps the mold alive. In rare cases, I have used low percentage hydrogen peroxide very carefully and only directed on the mold area. I would not recommend using peroxide because it can stain the leather. However, people must identify what is the problem in the leather. Sometimes is mold, sometimes is not. Perhaps Aero can contribute and help us out with their cleaning solutions they use? I am all open to anyone who can share their experiences in mold removal. Maybe a mold removal thread can be created. This way, everyone has access to proven methods when dealing with mold in leather?

FYI got this one back from Aero, updating how it went in this other thread but short version is they did a pretty good job! May be limits to just how much you can get rid of a perceptible level of musk though. Will have to ask how they do it.

I like the Langlitz-y look.
Seller sent an offer at 500 and the size chart suggests it's a bit roomier than what the seller measured.
I'll sleep on it.

@Edward could we move this and the next post I added to the finds & deals thread....thanks!

Pretty well broken in Langlitz Columbia Pre-1985, think it may be around a "44" or so. Oddly the ad also says
"48" so I would seek out detailed dimensions. - $600 BIN or I've had an offer for $525 come through. Leather looks great on this one. Seller has a pair of pants and a newer Columbia also up for sale too.

I moved it for you.

This is oddly beautiful, and a very solid price at $150 BIN. It's too big for me, but I might have given it a shot for some fun in a 40.

really nice looking padded Taubers CR with hand warmers. Tagged 42 looks to fit more or less TTS by today's standards. BIN $400

There are a couple half priced Schotts on Huckberry. I exercised restraint, but that doesn't mean you should.

 

[newtojackets]

Heavily customised schott 618, size 40. Leather on this looks gorgeous.
