Himel are some of the best leather jackets in the world, a true modern classic people will be collecting in the future.
Totally agree. And I love this jacket even though I stay away from bikes.
David these are fantastically informative videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Some of the best COVID19 content available!
This is the coolest looking jacket you guys make
Keep these vids comming Dave, they're killer.....
I have a J-100 from RMC and while I absolutely love the way it looks, smells, and patina, it does not move much. This is very interesting, I wish I could try one and see how the "mechanical panels" makes this ridable.
Well if you are ever in Toronto we can arrange that or I will be building a ready-to-wear line soon enough and hopefully there will be a few stores globally carrying it
can’t get enough of these videos! fantastic!
Awe thanks
Wow, I'm surprised. I occasionally follow a few fashion youtube channels and stumbled upon you guys when Carl Murawski mentioned you guys in one of his videos, then he made a video of the leather jacket he order from you guys. The reason I say that I'm surprised is that I have to admit, I did not know you guys are from Toronto (speaking as a fellow Torontonian.) After peaking my curiosity, I googled your website and had a quick skim at your collection. The first thing I noticed was the prices, though I knew that these were custom jackets, the prices also reaffirmed me that they were out of my budget, at least for the next while. The second thing that stood out to me was I was almost instanteously attracted to this jacket, the Keningston, out of the whole offered collection. The cut is sleek, form fitting, and I wouldn't hesitate to say timeless.
I thank you for this informative video and I'm thrilled to know that there are Canadian components in this beautiful piece. I would love to have a chat with you guys about leather jackets, and male fashion in general if that's ever possible. And of course, hope one day to own one of these amazing custom masterpieces!
Shoot us an email. We're always happy to chat leather-and if you're a size 38 or 40, we occasionally have sample Kensingtons available for great prices.
Your videos are so interesting and the jackets are incredible!
Would love to see more of how these beautiful jackets look on people
I hope you do a video about difference between sport jacket and motorcycle and flight jackets. It seems this subject is totally skipped on UA-cam. Your channel is a great discoveryfor me because i wanted to learn about leather jacket and its history for a long time. Especially how it developed through jears and how to spot decade it is coming from. Until now i could only cache breadcrumbs of this stuff. In your videos there is so much more. I know you have a lot of your own products that you showcase but maybe you will have time to shovecase some of yoir own collectionof vintage jackets and highlight why they are rare and interesting maybe on this channel as separate playlist or other channel entirely. It is knowlage it is so interesting and im shoure it could educate andmake enthusts
I love the looks of this jacket but I do like to have zippered handwarmer pockets also and an inside pocket is nice.
We make a different model of café racer for people who need zipped handwarmers... check out the Raider British Racer on our site.
@@HimelBrosLeather Will do, thank you.
This is the J-100 model
Amazing? Which of your leathers is this?
As a Canadian, I can say anything made in Canada is a Rip off!
Try on a Himel Bros. jacket, just once. That opinion will evaporate.
