Yeah, Himel Bros is the real deal. Check out some of the video breakdowns on their YouTube channel. David Himel goes through the construction, and history of the garment that is essentially being designed/replicated to high historical accuracy. They also use some of the best leathers in the world, including the sought after and legendary leather of Shinki Hikaku tannery. After all is said and done, the price is more or less justified in my eyes. I’ve just never had the actual money to buy one 😂.

That’s essentially where I’m at right now. But I have my eyes set on a jacket from Freewheelers in Japan. But I can’t justify it if I’m not at my goal weight. 45lbs down from the beginning of the year. 40 more to go 🥲.
