Shinki at Bill Kelso

Andy just posted this on Facebook:

It’s £1175 for an A-2 in Shinki. Pricey, but still on the lower side of the range of prices for that leather.

Good to see the option, but I like my Liberty. In fact, I love it.

They used claim liberty to be the most ww2 authentic leather out there, used to say 'better than Japanese leathers' or something similar but they seem to have taken that down from the site now. Wonder why they've opted to produce in shinki? Perhaps they need more supply as Italian produced leather is not always available?? Just a thought

Somebody needs to order the same jacket in both Liberty and Shinki so we can compare.

I had an A-2 in Liberty HH and that stuff is pretty awesome!

The trouble with claiming that you have the "best leathers in the world" is that when you find something even better, what do you say? I guess you can claim you have the best in the universe.....
