Badalassi - there are different weights available, obviously - is absolutely beautiful leather, as good as any HH out there, but the Achilles heel is it squeaks to high heaven. Who knows if the squeaking ever quits, I personally don't have the patience to find out.
Shinki is aesthetically...
This to me seems like the best of cxl. And I wouldn't mind something in this kind
I think it's 3.5oz. I've had one that was as broken in as they get and if you wear that thing all day there is certainly no danger of forgetting it's there. The weight does not depart just because the leather...
John Chapman has 2.5oz horween cxl, in russet. Or at least, he did .This is the only cxl I'd be interested in for jackets. The stuff aero uses in my opinion - and the opinion of many respected makers I might add, JC included - is too heavy for garments, in spite of whatever a handful of guys on...
He has got a few new styles that I guess would be up your alley Willy. I'm not really a suede fan, but for those that are he has green suede

It's a pity I didn't have you with me in Vienna the day I bought this as I can just picture Fardin's face and reaction to your comment, and it would have been perfect.
My dear fellow of course MM has a cross zip and a CR! The former is broken in to perfection the latter I have not had time to start on yet
This HB will need a period of sustained wear for the leather to relax and conform and then it will be absolutely killer and I have no qualms about keeping...
I can leave this on here for a few more days. Then I'll have to abort and start wearing it myself since a) this is too good for storage and b) jacket season here is very short lived
I'm with you on the short leather jacket vibe Monitor, hence why I'm asking your height, a question that you may have missed.
This CR is too long for my liking too (I'd prefer it at 24.5" or shorter) but maybe just maybe I have another one or two that might tickle your fancy further down the line..
