The TB-140 25SP is Y’2 Leathers anniversary model in a beautiful Olive Green heavier weight (for Suede/ Roughout) Steerhide and it it is a stunner!
The Olive roughout Steerhide is fantastic. Sometimes you have an expectation when ordering and it is so nice when expectations are exceeded as they were with this jacket. It is a heavier weight Steerhide, not horsehide heavy but substantial. It drapes very well and no break in is required. There is a nice amount of rough in it’s roughout and the shade shimmers. It’s a great colour and will be superb when worn in and creases set in in the right areas.
It’s a great fitting jacket and one that feels and looks great layered up or down (see sizing info). It is well proportioned all over with a not to modern/ tight fitting upper body and sleeves, a straight cut down to the hem and a back length that doesn’t make it look like a crop top. For reference Mr model is 5Ft 11″ on a good day, circa 84 KG’s, long in the torso with a fairly wide chest and wears a size 40 for a trim but very comfortable fit. He could comfortably have worn a flannel shirt underneath but anything heavier he would need to size up. The best description would be a jacket that fits and looks great in the right size that is not restrictive for arm and shoulder movement and that doesn’t look oversized. Hard to find!
It is fully lined in cupro with two leather trimmed inside pockets.
The finish, as is to be expected form a company that specialise in leather jackets from Japan, great. Very neat and all well aligned.
This is an easy wear and wear with all lifetime jacket that will look and feel superb the more you wear it. Enjoy!
