Go to sleep in it.Just got home. Been to the pub, it's cold af outside. The jacket is still too new. Definitely tougher hide than CXL to break in.

Finally some cooler temps . . . RMC Steinbeck
Thanks dude! Real good seller BTW!
So, now I know what a Horween jacket feels like. Heavy dude (pun intended). Perfect fit for me in a Size 44. Sleeves are 26", and I should ideally wear a 27" sleeve. But I'll get over it.
Not too sure about the beef with the the quality questions with SB. I have studied the history, trust me. My favorite, and IMO best quality fitting jacket remains, my Aero HBD, bought off the rack from Thurston, by way of Carriie's skill and expertise. She is a jacket whisperer. But, I am a semi newbie. So, at the risk of being sued, waaas up wit dat?
No, seriously please continue to educate me.

No quality issues I’m aware of with SB/Alexander Leathers vs Aero, the history between companies a different story plenty of threads here about the issues, nice jacket btw, it’s cool evening here in Brisbane so I’m rocking my SB Roadster as well cheers

Looking good @SpeedRcrX and not too many leaves left on that tree in the background.
Thanks!
Yes we have to wait to have cherries again. But it means now I can wear winter coats and jackets!

It's right at the belt. It's short but much better on a T-shirt. I'm wearing a thick sweater which lifts it up. But it's short, yeah. Really short.

Highwayman, just in the nick of time for our short-lived winter. So far, I have heard "holy f**k" and "don't break your back" comments when people lift it up!

Just look at those creases! That's incredible. This is the stuff that makes people want leather jackets in the first place.

Yes. It seems to crease and take form in the arms much more rapidly than the horse. Also, I'm wearing it lol.

And it seems they got the extreme weight steer back again. Looks 5oz! That's what I'm getting my trucker jacket in next. In about 2 years. . . Nick, how come you decided on the HWM again??
