New rider just came in. Went true to size small. Leather quality is really up there. For the price it’s well worth it. I got the notre price so even more of a deal.

Those the coast 2s updated?

They both have their positives so I don’t like one more than the other. Leather is better on the blackmeans

Hi.. is the leather heavy?.. can it be worn year round, even springtime?.. thank you

Maybe the SLP fanboy in me talking, but I really wish the belt was at least removable on that Blackmeans rider. I've had a rider with a belt before and it just got in the way. Definitely prefer the cleaner look with no belt, but other than that the jacket looks excellent.

Nothing exciting. But mad comfortable. OS raglan/sweats

Which sweats are those?

Finally had some time to open up some packages I’ve recieved lately. Been pretty busy with work.

First things first...the black/grey brushed flannel. It’s money, super soft like the red flannel, but fits tts whereas my red brushed flannel ran small. Only thing I dislike is the placement of the last button, which is similar to all the other JE shirts, it’s too high so the shirt kind of opens up at the bottom almost as if it’s too small. This is a small. I ordered a medium and it was the same as well.

TL;DR: brushed flannel: It’s dope, ‘nuff said. Buy it!

On to the next one...krete blouson. My wife destroyed me on this one, her description not mine, “great an acid wash, girls jacket for $400...that’s going back!” She later apologized for being cruel. Anyway, I personally love the color and was hoping to love the jacket. The jacket is thinner than I expected, more like a Levi’s trucker. Maybe I’m used to really heavy raw denim jackets? I think the jacket would be perfect if it was a little longer. It hits just below the belt line which usually I love, maybe it’s the OS nature of the jacket that makes it look off to me, or my wife’s insults. The damn leather Pull tag kept falling off, similar problem to my rider jacket. The lack of pockets also was kind of strange to me. If my wife didn’t interject I’d probabky have held on to this one and prob would have sat in my closet...so prob better I got her opinion. If it hits sale szn I’ll def cop.

Description of pics: First is with the black raglan crew (prob should have picked a diff color) but the raglan is cropped on me and this is even more so.
3rd pic: with the flannel to show the length of the jacket
4th pic: with a (crinkled) white shirt tucked in to show where the jacket hits the waist.

TL;DR: blouson: if it had pockets & was an inch longer it’d be a keeper.

Update on the cast 2 obsidian : after a few wears they’ve stretched out a decent amount, got that diaper ass now. Really wish I would have picked up a 28. Here’s too hoping there’s an end of season restock or some retailer picks up a 28.

Are you normally a 29? I just got a 29 from Azalea... should I have got a 28? Don’t even think other stockists carry 28 except JE

It’s not thin. About the same weight as your pink.

They are coast 2

Here is the size medium bogota on me... I think i may have been able to get away with a small but not sure if I would be able to layer the same as I have somewhat broad shoulders.

Black bogota
Grey raglan
Grey classic crew
Onyx
White CP's

I think you could size down. Looks like you have a decent amount of room in the shoulders

 

[cyc wid it]

Don’t wear your rider zipped unless you’re freezing your ass off.

Thanks I ordered a 3/L from the JE site that was baggy in the arms and have been looking for a 2/M.
