I’d love to sit with you. No live music for 11 month now here. No place to sit other than home for three.
I once shaved my head completely bald 15 yrs ago or so after graduated university and became aware of how lopsided my ears are, the reason i always get strange looking jawline in all my legal documents mugshots i think the photographers just use my ears as guide i remember many time photographers who took it always say turn your head to the left while i thought already staring straight at the camera but followed his instruction anyway, i got to wear crosszip to balance it out if i would wear my hair short now.You guys and your early grey-ing. If only I could be so lucky. I see the same barber as @ton312 haha. I mean he’s also a few years older than me and I have no clue when his started. But I had a full luxurious head of hair and at 23 it just started receding like crazy. By 25 it was thinning like crazy. By 27 I was buzzing or shaving my head. From 28 to now 34 I’ve done nothing but shave it every few days.
Thank you, Jeo! High praise! I believe you have one of the most spectacular collections in these parts.
I dyed my hair since highschool, early greying in the genes
I started graying in high-school too but I honestly never for a second saw it as a negative thing.

Noooo...say it's not so !
Haha same here! I started getting gray when I was 18. Now at 36 it's a pretty consistent salt'n'pepper with some places more white than dark. I never once considered dyeing my hair.
That's why I never complain about my gray hair!

@Carlos840 , as much as I wish it was the other way around, I have to admit I actually prefer the look & the fit of the Roadhouse. Faith in what was once my favorite LW style completely restored. Actually looks on you exactly how I imagined it'd be, when I was looking at the photos on the LW's site. Which didn't really say much about this style at all. Either way, badass, cool and even if it was a size smaller, don't suppose you'd benefit much from it. Can you even unbutton those pockets, tho? They look sturdy af.
Eastman is very nice too but... Does sort of fade into second place, compared to the Roadhouse. To me, I mean.
This is a size 42L, IMO it fits almost one size smaller than the Californian with the same tag size.
Length is still pretty short for a Long size.
The most impressive bit of this jacket is the lining, it's a very nice wool quilt, super thick and warm but very breathable, i really like it. The leather is underwhelming, super thin and not much character but it makes the jacket pretty comfortabel to wear. Good range of movement, better than the Californian.
On my way to post office with 18 lbs CXL
I don’t get the Roadhouse. Pockets that are so small as to be useless in a weird location. Too high to look lime pockets too low to look like nipples. Take those off and throw on some handwarmers and i like it..@Carlos840 , as much as I wish it was the other way around, I have to admit I actually prefer the look & the fit of the Roadhouse.

Always thought the leathers on elmc jackets are a bit hit or miss. Some look rich and beautiful and some are flat and underwhelming. The californian i tried was really underwhelming and probably the reason why I didnt buy it.I've tried one of these, a regular 42, last summer. Fit is indeed totally different from the Californian. But unlike yours, the one I tried was much roomier than the Californian. Sleeves were wider as well but also shorter.
I have a feeling that Eastman has tweaked the fit of their jackets over the years. They also tweaked the design. I recently spotted this one on eBay. Notice the buckle side adjusters and the snap on the pocket.
