Dude looks like he wishes his clothes were flammable.

Here is the best leather jacket I have ever owned. If you are a college graduate, physically fit, a US citizen, and haven't been in trouble with the law you may qualify to get one of these free of charge. Contact a Marine Corps or Navy recruiter for details.

Tried on all the Incarnation jackets at Lift in Daikanyama yesterday after the SA insisted, have to say that I'm really impressed. Probably the best quality jackets I've tried, up there with Backlach, Carpe, the Attachment German calf, and the wjk baby calf. All of them feel like something you could wear forever. They're on sale right now (200,000 yen down from 300,000 or so) as well. I tried on CCP right after and the leather felt like junk compared to them

^^ did you have to size up one?

For those of you interested in Backlash, Alan Bilzerian in Boston has like 3 or 4 models on sale. They are really, really nice but some of the models have ridiculously high armholes.

i should add it's an amazing place to shop for leather generally. unbelievable pieces only a small portion of which are on their website

I wasn't really paying attention to the sizes (think it was XS and S sizes), but everything was very fitted, high armholes and slim body. The biggest constricting factor was the waist on the longer jackets - my hips were too big. I was assured that the leathers would stretch a bit too, especially the unlined ones. Def. a "brand for dudes who like things made of high quality leather" brand My favorite piece was the reverse calf jacket I never do anything but visit Lift and Attachment when I go to Daikanyama, maybe get a burger at Blacows or Sasa, what else is there other than expensive French restaurants?

This is much more amazing in person.
