It's warm - 97 degrees here. No jacket. If I could take my skin off, I'd do that too. Fortunately I'm not an outdoor person, so I rarely have to deal with our cancer causing, excoriating sunshine. :p

No clue about how these are supposed to fit but if I ever get one, I want it to be just like that. Cool, man!

Found this gem today, unbelievable Schott sample jacket from back in the day. It's a transition model between the regular-back 674 to the current G1-back 184SM, needless to say the Schott 674 is a classic, adorned by Lou Reed and Kurt Russel, a 50s-70s NYC phenomenon, started with steerhide and shearling lining, to steerhide/cowhide fake shearling lining, to diamond quilt lining, then to the current zip out pile 184SM. BUTTTTTTT, THIS IS THE MISSING LINK! A 674 WITH A 184SM BACK, IN ITALIAN HORSEHIDE!!!!

it isn't the best replica you can find....but i payed it 290 euro and it is in wonderful condition (i think that it's something made during the transition period between avirex and cockpit).......it's exactly the same of a cockpit replica. May be i can improve it whit some mink oil (if i don't sell it before)
