Damn! So that makes two I missed. I’m destined not to have an Arcaidia. Probably b/c I talk so much ****. LOL. I will find peace with it. She’s a beauty!

Jesus H. That’s got me thinking. And I’ve sworn these types off. But that’s hard to ignore. Beautiful!
Ton i have to confess. You told me you would love to have it if i pass it on, that being said recently like 2 twice in December i had a pm typed up to ask you if you wanted it, i erased them obviously i couldn't do it. I was trying to raise $ quick. Anyway i thought about you when i thought about selling. You never know

One of my favorites.. plus youre looking pretty lean, have you've lost a few pounds..you might be a 46 now!

You’re right... 42 pounds down since July and I can now fit in 44/46 (I was size 50-52 in the summer). This 48 LW Suburban is now slightly oversized for me but it still works when I’m layering with a thick sweater.

I can now fit in the size L Orvis x Himel that you proxied for me! [emoji16]

Wow, that's more than just a few pounds!..I had a feeling you were slimming down when I saw you wearing those two Eastman's recently..Hopefully you haven't lost too much power on the Squat, bench & dead-lift

Here are a few photos of my LW CHP. John D. Maccarter asked me to post these for him since he is considering ordering one like mine:

This jacket is really breaking in nicely. I have been wearing it every chance I get, and I always make sure to wear it when it rains.

Damn!!!!! This is... Did LW change the tannery or is this what the jackets that are actually worn look like? This is insane. Gotta be the nicest I've seen.

I’m afraid I might have lost 20 -25 % of my max strength. I had to change my training routine from strength / muscle building focus to more cardio focused to be able to drop the weight. But I can live with that trade off. I am much healthier and energetic now.

Monitor,
As far as I know it is the same tannery as before. What has really brought out the grain and texture in this one is wearing it out during several heavy rainstorms. This and the fact that I also wear my jackets at work loading and unloading materials, pulling wire, climbing up and down ladders, etc. has helped to break the jacket in quickly. Hell it won’t even stand up on its own the way it used to!

My CHP is like Marro’s. Thick, heavy, but the stiffness is almost totally knocked out of it after a year of wear. Now, the J23, which I think was built in 2015/16, has a much stiffer hand and feel. Thicker and heavy, but it maintains its stiffness. In certain areas it has a different look up close, different feel. I’m thinking my CHP is 4 oz but the J23 is 4.5+.
