Man for the life of me I can't, and I suppose somewhat refuse, to understand the term "age appropriate". I suppose at 43 I should be wearing a north face plastic everyday Joe jacket? Hell no.

Levi's sherpa leather:
ATF Tanker Jacket that I just received from CBI here on the forum. It's trimmer fitting on me than one would normally wear this style of jacket but I kind of like it like that. It handled a 32 degree ride into work today fine. The insulation is warm, soft and allows plenty of freedom of movement. The collar blocks the wind at my neck below my helmet well. I normally wear a neck gaiter when it's this cold outside and tried without and though not as well covered, the collar still did a good job blocking most of the wind. The light weight and easy movement is a nice break from my leather jackets. Leather still handles the wind better and would handle a slide better though.
A milder day here today, so time to wear my new (to me) ELC Star Sportwear I purchased from @nick123 recently.
It's a great jacket...a slightly more relaxed fit than I thought it might be, which helps if you want to put a sweater underneath. It's starting to break in nicely - the leather is absolutely amazing.
I think I have to go against what everyone else is saying here, Atticus. The jacket looks jarringly out of place on you, especially with everything else you are wearing. Kinda the same effect as if you were sporting a new 19 year old girlfriend.
The only way you should wear a jacket like that, at your (our) age, is if it's YOU... an expression of your personality, and a continuation of the life you have been living. But I gather, from your questioning, that it's neither.
Please don't be offended, I'm speaking to you as I would to my brother... and you did say, "Tell me true"
But that's just one man's opinion, and I'm often wrong.
