cause nobody, but ToJ and some heritage companies make leather jackets that are good at that price point. Actually ToJ is the only thing I can think of that makes non dadcore leather jackets at under 1k USD, but the label is ran by a dick head that it takes like 2 years for him to make your order.

if you have a common interest, you likely have a common understanding over how much things cost. if its a "normie" asking out of the blue (clueless family member, in-law, etc) its a little different because chances are they will balk and not understand or be children about it

go read drews last few responses in sfs toj thread, what a dickhead

people waiting for almost 2 years smh..

jackets are very good though, haven't bought one myself but a friend did before the whole mess began and it's very good material and quality in general

think they were like 800 though depending on what customizations you wanted

for mtm toj was undisputable at their pricepoint, top notch leathers

also I don't think manufacturing in Korea is that bad, I know visvim(for example) have produced stuff there which means they're capable of making a top of the line product, but obviously we have no clue where toj is made

you're best off with a vanson double zip moto (reinforced seams and real quality zips meant for riding but they're not dainese quality)

Probably just really lucky.

But then again, it wasn't that amazing of an item tbh. Its a luc jacket, sure, but it was minimalistic and clean at best. Slim cut casual jacket, no vents, no functional buttons on sleeves. Materials nice, build quality is solid, canvas lined, and cutting is great. Beyond that, it lacks a certain "oomph" factor for a jacket priced at that price point.

I would have been very hesitant to drop more than 300-400 having handled it
