I know what it's like. When I cooked my first Natal jacket, that's what it came out like. It was like cardboard. It, well, I'll avoid saying also shrunk but it did shrink. Your jacket looks a bit tighter today.

If you cook it i believe it might shrink, mine was not even dipped, i just spray it and use my hand to pat around under the sleeve and fold the lapel, the lining wasnt even wet. It didnt shrink at all
. But it was hard from the start, i could not fold the lapel when it came. The sleeve is always been shortish my own choice but very tapered after my elbow if i really let my shoulder loose and the cuff is not zipped, it might look even shorter. With all the creases.Last week
Yesterday bit more relaxed
Its hanging like this.

Wested Last Crusade, lightly distressed.
I think it looks great. What is it?
Thanks man. I think so too. It’s made by TRD. “The Real Deal”. It’s a laughable name but frankly...it’s accurate. Monster weight, very much a true M/C jacket. I’ve had a fair number of heavyweights over the years, LW, Cal, Vanson, Natal and Aero. TRD is heavier than all of them. It feels like a heavy lump of clay. No other way to describe it.

Schott steerhide 637 today, over at the HD dealer by truck as it was a rainy day ( a week of that to come !)
This is not a "biker jacket" per se as it has no zip sleeves. "Cool" jacket tho'..
This "Cholo" style custom built from a Harley Fatboy , is NOT my style.

Vanson vest. Too hot for a jacket, any jacket.

Nick, that's the best fitting one you got so far. Hound steals the show, tho. Sorry.
It's too hot for this, too. I tried wearing my LW vest yesterday. Exact same effect as when wearing a backpack. There go all my dreams of finding a way to wear leather during summer.

Crazy hot. No motorcycle=no leather. Another reason to love riding.

Usually my jacket photos are always in a sunny period , which is 'the norm" here.
It is NOT always sunny in southern California ( or in this case Perth WA !)
Some well wintry squalls indeed and max 16C, (noticeably less during the squalls !)
My swimming pool is full and overflowing ( first world problem I know !)
Eastman Luftwaffe taking the strain today.
