I'd like to share some pictures about how badalassi cow hide looks like after some wear. I didnt give enough wear of this jacket, less than 2 months I'd say, so the there isn't much characters, but it still developed some.

I must say, badalassi cow hide is a monster, it thick, stiff, heavy...but looks great. Compare to Liberty HH, this leather provides a luxury look to the jacket. I still cant manage to break in this monster, it still feel stiff and makes those squeaking noise...but from the characters developed so far, I put my faith on it.

To my mind, that's a great length.

It really is all about body type. I have broad shoulders and a relatively long torso so shorter jackets tend to look ridiculous - or so I think. Others don't seem to think so, but it's how the thing feels on you. And in my case, I tend to feel like an organ grinder's monkey.

ZHZ, I like that jacket. My Vanson/Insurrection PLU-3 fits about the same on me, lengthwise. While I wouldn't want all of mine to be this long, it is nice to have an option, as I sometimes leave the shirt out, as well.
