Cryptic. Esoteric. I feel ya. It’s a commitment. How else to know? The desire grows, but perhaps one last experiment. The plan is set.

Good stuff but not when you're looking for someone. I've discovered that girls, well, women my age can't believe I'd actually wear a leather vest in a unironically.
Don't know whether to retire my LW vest or to keep on going. I mean, honesty and all that...

1) Been with and then married to same lady for a long time now- so that part of the equation has been long out of my consideration. I’d say sounds like the kind of thing that may also depend where you are. In New Orleans lots of different types of dress and presentation are within the realm of the typical
2) if you’re gonna move it on, I’m awfully curious about the sizing

Neither my ex ever liked that thing and now the effects are not exactly flattering. As much as I love to wear it, it's getting to me. And since it's the only leather thing I took to our trip to Canada, which has been beautiful, it reminds me of our time together there. Funny how things combine to end up meaning something entirely else... That vest was supposed to have some history, and once it finally gets some, turns out I'd rather forget all about it.
Anyway, it's a 40 but a roomy 40. Textbook 42, IMO.

Typical then, too large for me. That apparel annex pickup may be the singular exception.
And yes. For all the glorification of the gain of character through use, sometimes it brings to mind times of use that would rather be forgotten. That being said, barring some particular shame or horrible regret, even those bitter moments can become bittersweet or even pleasant memories with time.
After all, character is formed by both positive and negative interactions compounded again and again.
Something to consider at least.

You just haven’t met the right lady yet. When you do she will notice your eyes and your smile and the vest won’t mean a damn thing either way.

Or even better, she will ask you to keep it on during aggressive cuddling.

It certainly looks like one. I bought a very similar jacket from Mandarin last week which is also missing the tag :

Is there any way to tell A 'white label' HD jacket apart from a black AMF label HD jacket?
Put down a deposit sending a cloth fit jacket to try

For the Sportster, I think the earlier white label has the diamond zipper pull on cheat pocket while the later model has the ring pull particularly the AMF era ones.

What a beauty!
Straight zip CHP has to be my favorite style of all time!
I was gonna try langlitz again but i just wont know how it is gonna fit. This way after the cloth mock up will add or subtract here or there and get just what i want fit wise. And about 400 less and 8 weeks vs 6 mths. I wanted to show some love to JL have always taken good care of me.

Jacket is extremely cool but that pocket is just an absolute work of art! The studs above the sleeve zips are a cool detail too. Greg is good. Really good.
