This looks like a well-made, well-fitting jacket. What are your thoughts having worn it?
I have worn it 10 hours at home, I think it’s be like 1/2 as an ELC Jacket. Certainly it has minor flaws , craftsmanship and some materials can’t match with ELCs. But, in general the pattern is good, the leather is excellent considering the price. And it’s size charts is US/EURO‘s instead of Japan/Asian’s.


Very nice jacket SM, congrats
Thank you Ritch.
That's real sweet!
Thank you ,Tim.

I don't know if my leather was from Poland......but it was made in China and the build quality and tailoring was quite impressive......but since it was made by a small store, I assume a mass factory wouldn't be as nice
Double Helix ain’t cheap , they stated use Shinki HH from Japan, if so, about 80% of Shinki HH use Poland rawhide.

Out of curiosity I went to taboo.com to look at this stuff but can only get so far before it requests registration but to register they want my mobile phone number. I'm not sure I'm happy with supplying that just to browse products..

Many thanks. The issue I have is that I am presented with one page and the option to proceed to the next to view more products but in order to do so it requires registration and for that they want a mobile phone number. I really don't want to divulge that as I really don't know where the data will end up. An email account for registration is one thing but mobile phone number is something else.

Do they have size 42 still in stock? I was struggling with the online registration, I can not find a way to navigate trough their non-English website.

Google Chrome will translate if you activate the add on / extension as will Firefox.

I have tried. I ended up here on the pc browser. It keeps telling me that the page has expired. Trough the mobile apps I even installed Alipay, hit the wall when it required a China mainland Credit Card for identification purposes. Do you guys have an email address or whatsapp number to contact them directly?

Thank you.

I managed to register with a second phone number. The jacket is in my shopping cart, I punch in the Hungarian address and Taobao states: The goods cannot be purchased or shipped due to relevant laws and regulations or Taobao policies. o_O
