Y’2 Leather – TB-140 25SP – Olive Roughout Steerhide

This product is currently out of stock and unavailable.

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!

The TB-140 jacket fit’s just slightly smaller than traditional Western sizes but is well proportioned throughout. The “model” is wearing a 40 and it is perfect but quite trim fitting, not tight or restrictive with a medium weight layer/ shirt underneath. He would size up to a 42 for heavier layers. He generally takes a medium-large/ 16 / 38-40 in most Western sized tops, shirts and jackets.

He is 5ft 10-11″ tall (180 cm), medium build/ larger chest, weighing in at roughly 84 KG.

Thicker leather jackets, particularly horsehide tend to crease up and shape the the wearer more permanently than softer thinner leathers so advice would be to always oversize slightly, similar to the model and it will shape to your body better without feeling restrictive. This Steerhide though will behave like a thinner leather although it is a heavier weight for suede.

Please see how we measure our products here and compare the measurements chart for this item against an item of yours that fits how you would like this to. Bear in mind that a horsehide jacket less pliable and giving than many fabric or soft leather jackets you may own so for ease of movement you might want to go for the larger size if on the fence.
