Leather jackets that change with use

It's been about 3 years since I started wearing this jacket.

This is the first leather jacket I got after joining Kadoya.

Among the many leather jackets out there, this one is still my favorite.

I wore it almost every day during the seasons I could wear it.

Whether in street clothes or on a bike. I couldn't wear it in the middle of summer, but in the middle of winter, I wore it inside and put up with the cold, trying to get used to it.

Part of it was the joy of owning it, but it was also because the more I wore it, the more I enjoyed how it changed.

The appearance of the leather surface. It looks clearly different from when it was new.

The luster that comes out from wearing and rubbing. The glossy feeling when you put oil in it. Various expressions are created depending on how each person wears and cares for their clothes. This is also one of the interesting things about leather jackets.

The wrinkles are clearly different from when they were new. No two jackets will have the same wrinkles. Your own one-of-a-kind jacket.

Thanks to these wrinkles, the look of the jacket changes even more.

The leather has also become softer and easier to wear.

I change my innerwear depending on the season, and thicker innerwear has become easier to layer.

This model is a product called [TWR], and we are currently developing a successor model called [TWR-2].

It is now more comfortable to wear and remains a popular product.

As for the leather quality, Kadoya uses the standard cowhide soft steer.

The leather is just the right thickness and weight, giving you the feeling of superiority that comes with owning a genuine leather jacket.

This model is a tight series, so it is thinner than other models and has a clean and simple design. Recommended for those who want to use it as both street wear and riding wear.
