    Backlash inquiry



    I was wondering if anybody out there is familiar with the Japanese brand Backlash, particularly the leather jackets. I am curious because there is a calf leather shirt-jacket available for only $300.00, looks similar to the C-Diem leather shirt. How is the quality, construction and feel of leather? If anybody would let me know that would be great thanks.

    I know Archive in SF carries the bags and from what I've seen they look pretty nice. But I have no clue about the leather shirts or jackets.

        from what i've seen, and in person, Backlash leather is pretty nice. i had a pair of the engineer boots, and the leather was pretty supple and high quality. some of the newer stuff has Guidi leather. it's pretty expensive in japan, and it looks pretty nice, especially this one ink-bled pig-skinleather shirt i sawfrom a couple seasons ago. as Casius said, the Archive does carry some of the bags. i believe H.Lorenzo had some leather shirts last time i was there

          I saw it on yahoo auctions jp. I accidentally closed the window before saving the link, but when I find it again I'll put it up. Thanks for the responses.
