It brings it back closer to what it would have been. I wouldn't say that it darkens the actual color of the leather, so much as eliminates the dryness.

Hey seabass, I enjoyed your photos from Johnson Leathers. I've talked to Alan countless times now and will soon be receiving my second jacket from them, yet I have little idea what the place itself is like. If you have any more photos from JL to share, I'd like to see them - maybe in a new thread.

Thanks, strokes. I didn't used to like the Perfecto style at all. But once you ride in one and realize how well it does it's job of protection, comfort, and utility, you get sold.

I see SoCal is posting attachments... I joined a while back and have more posts. Why can't I post attachments yet? Anyone.

Not sure, I bought it used this year...been wearing it doing all kinds of ranch chores as well as to the office...

I really like the looks of the 50's HB shown by gtdean48 and plan for that same jacket to be added to my collection sooner than later.
