I like the style of the IR too. That one seems to have just the right amount of studs placed neatly without looking gaudy. Nice

Colson Whitehead, Pulitzer Prize winning author. Don’t know anything about the jacket he is wearing but he’s a fantastic writer.

Nice comparison! I really like the Buco and Leathertogs and LW's version can soon be added. Of course Langlitz Comstock should not be forgotten but for some reason I don't really like it as much as I like the other three. I don't know if the Comstock is a real repro or just a mix between both versions.

@red devil Yes, I've heard of a J31 repro made of 5oz red moose hideIs it wrong to start thinking that it would be nice to have the J31 repro as well?

While I certainly wouldn’t cry if I received the Comstock as a gift, I agree with you. Visually it is the least pleasing. The thick and wonderful swathe of leather around the bottom hem looks great on the Columbia, etc., but works less well on the Comstock. I suspect the belt design of the LW/Leathertogs is as practical to ride in as Langlitz’s set up too. The LT also seems to be a more form fitting pattern than the other two.

Do it, a true side by side comparison would be cool.
I also find it less appealing overall, otherwise I would have probably ordered one when I was there. I am more tempted by a red death head cascade from them...
I wonder if I could ask LW to reproduce it. They know Buco inside out but it might be too confusing for customers having both Leathertogs B and the J31...
Edit: had to specify a red death head cascade specifically
Here's another shot of this jacket. Cool Colson, a 2-time Pulitzer winner at 50... I need to read some of his stuff.

Wait, there are two of these... Things!? I thought it's all the same jacket!
He wrote a post apocalyptic zombie-type novel which - even though you can't quite imagine why he'd write it - got incredible praise.

lol, three when you include Langlitz’s offering. Cmon my man, deep down you know you love it. Outlaw Bellhops MC. You start the European chapter and I cover down in North America.

Zone One. Read it recently, excellent. Brings literary elements to a genre novel.
