Calf leather was much more substantial and relatively flawless last time I went to a SLP boutique.
I've liked the SLP leathers since they came out, and I think I want to get one some time in the coming months. Couple questions for you folks: How much should expect to pay for a (new) one? I'm expecting somewhere between $3-5k for one of the standard biker jackets (L01 maybe? Correct me if I'm wrong) in lamb or calf, but a more accurate number would be great. And which leather is generally accepted to be the "better" material for the design? I have a black calf 5 Zip now and a black lamb Toj BCDR on the way, so I'm lacking neither. I'd rather pick whichever is "best" for the design (aka if the lamb is too flimsy for the hardware, or if the calf is too stiff). I was at the Saint Laurent stores in Chicago (in March), LA (May), and Vegas (June) this year, but didn't try anything on, but I intend on doing so before I purchase the jacket.
Thanks!
