Can't comment about the Hillside, but it seems like you're shooting pretty randomly. Do YOU know what you want? Or asking opinions on listings you find in your size?
Unfortunately it's a little bit of both when buying used . I'm tall and wide shouldered/ chest (6 foot 3 inches 49 inch chest . ) , not many options out there . I would like a black motorcycle jacket , single rider preferred but open to double rider . Trying to keep it under $600 shipped .

Sam question to you- is this the older comp weight?
Vanson chopper is the new stuff,nothing like the early leather.
The other 4 jackets are miles better leather. That's not to say the new stuff isn't good,it is.
