The Flat Head for Posterity

That was fast! I didnt even realize they were selling HW001s. It looks slightly shorter in length than my HW004.

Here’s a picture of mine from the day I bought it

According to Rivet and Hide's size chart, the HW001 is a bit shorter and has wider chest and shoulder measurements. This works out great for me since I have a wider chest and shoulders than could be reasonably accomodated by the cut of the hw004 in my normal size. I usually wear a 40 in more western brands and a 42 in the hw001 fits me great.

My type 2 arrived today. The sleeves are so stiff and the grain on the back looks amazing!

HW001! I love this jacket very much.

Hi,

Is the HW004 the successor of the HW001 ?
And is the HW001 no longer in production then?

Thanks.

A few months in and the leather is breaking in super well. Just such a great jacket all around.

Clean single piece of leather for most of it.
