Just want to heap a bit more praise on the Gold Label Cafe from Brooks.
My first Jacket was a used Schott 141, then a Used Highwayman. Both too large for me but it took me a long time to figure that out while going through the process of acquiring a custom Highwayman from Thurston Bros. I love that jacket but it took me two years to break it in.
On a whim I bought a brown Brooks Cafe Racer off ebay for around $150. I have bought several other jackets since then but this is still the one I wear the most. It is the super comfortable light weather jacket that is just always perfect.
I loved it so much I bought the next black Brooks CR that I could get my hands on, but it isn't a gold label and it just isn't quite the same as this brown one. So the search goes on. But the search is half the fun.
I'm gonna eventually find the perfect black version of this thing.... one day.
