Great condition Goatskin Cascade, size 42 with elbow pads (added this year by Langlitz), perfect riding jacket. The Langlitz goat is very heavy, no splits of any kind, just wonderfully broken in. Two inside pockets, one zipped and one open. Purpose built motorcycle jacket, with longer...
Congrats Dan, really outstanding jacket. I've got to get my hands on another Aero steer. It's great leather and the grain is really beautiful. I can see some of that on the back of the jacket but I'm sure it will get better and better. And finally, couldn't agree more with those who love the...
I'm not sure that others don't... or very, very similar leathers. Look at this new Vincenza, which is the grainy type that looks very much like the hide on my Russet Sheene.

I'm actually 6'2", but I have long legs so I think my torso is more typical of someone who's 6" even. And you're right, each jacket is a unique pattern and even when dimensions don't seem to make sense, you really need to keep an open mind and either put it on or see what it looks like on...
The fit is good except for the sleeves. They are about an inch short for me. In a static picture they look fine but in real life they don't work, and will shorten more as the jacket breaks in. It really doesn't have any creases yet.
Many of you will remember this as Ivan's jacket that was too big on him, and we made a swap so the jacket is now in my possession. It's made of the nicest FQHH I've ever handled. Thick, but more supple than usual. A really special jacket with nickel hardware and zip sleeves with the zips...
The first of my Cyber Wednesday sales - now that it's back to jacket weather I am clearing the closet of the jackets that I'm not wearing very often, or at all. This is a brand new Vincenza Premier Highwayman with OD thread in size 42. Nickel hardware, one inside pocket (no zip or snap), and...
The first comment on his FB post is priceless... I'm not a fan of public squabbling between manufacturers but he brings it on himself, especially the way he has criticized other companies, calling them "lazy" and knocking the leathers they use.
I remember you quoting from his email to you stating that jacket makers can't have tanneries make special leathers for them, that they don't do that, and that everyone can buy the same hides. Without directly comparing Vincenza, Shinki and Victory, because I can't, I just can't imagine that...
