Sick fit and leather!

I considered a Vanson CHP in this weekend’s sale then decided against because it’s about to be summer. This photo has me reconsidering.
For a long time, I struggled with this jacket due to the length. Still do a tiny bit, but I wore it every day I could for a month during my trip overseas and I'm glad I didn't let it go. My favourite jacket as of this moment, Vanson knows how to nail patterns, super comfy, nice V-taper when zipped, thick and heavy but soft leather.

Black cross zips are just my jam I guess, funny since I originally started out meh on them!

That is so cool! What's going on with the strip of leather sitting by the zipper? Rest of the jacket looks mint and that strip looks super worn in.
The jacket actually has lots of patina up close. The wind flap over the zipper and two of the back belt loops have gone full tea core I guess :) My wife actually loves this one….it has a certain “Je ne sais quoi”…
