Monitor, here are a few more pics. For fun I added a picture of a few jackets lined up in my closet to show the grain difference. Left to right LL Steer, Horween Steer Over dye, Lost Worlds FQHH, Aero Horween CXL FQHH. The LL leather is really supple and thick it's about the same thickness as...

Monitor, mine is a standard Monza. I love the fact that LL jacket arms actually have the perfect taper for me. All my Vansons seem to have oversized upper arms made for Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Bretron I love your idea of the button front Highwayman. I think I'll start there.
