    My new Aero B6

    Rob from Eastman told me, they can do long version but it's worth checking it again. The got the stock size and I love the fit. Yes it's bit snug, but I find it perfect tbh.

    Simmons Bilt jacket advice

    @jonesy86 , I'm no expert in this subject but if it helps you, Terry Mitchell (lounger) has a great Youtube channel with some great looking goat skin jacket. Good luck.

    Experience with Blattwerk horsehide (Simmons Bilt)?

    Ahh, I too was taken away by that leather, but no-one had any jacket of that hide to guide how that going to develop over time. If you go to their Instagram page, there's one pic of Steve (MD) wearing a jacket made of that hide and same color if that helps. Good luck.

    Not really, this is nowhere close to big fat wool peacoat. Much lighter and wool blend so doesn't mind in Irish weather.:)

    So, I got myself an A2(Eastman)

    Thanks @Brettafett , I have seen many of your post on A2, especially the RW 1401p. That thing is beauty. I have nothing to compare against, other jackets I own are buttery smooth lambskin and super heavy steer hide, so this HH was very welcomed.

    This is their in house Slender model. The leather isn't victory HH, they just call it veg tanned HH(whatever that means)

    So, I got myself an A2(Eastman)

    I was a bit torn between Eastman and BK. BK's liberty HH finish wear made be curious. Star Sportswear was my 2nd choice, but I would definitely would've needed size 40 on that. This is Eastman's in house A2 called Slender model in seal brown. The new leather doesn't really bother me much because...

    I am happy with the fit too. But its very light jacket, compared to my other steer hide jacket. The zipper (crown) worries me a lil though. Do they hold up fine over time?
