Yep, not easy. I am still on that journey, but trying to get that fit with vintage racers. That is probably even more difficult than with repros, although some at TFL have achieved that. Once you get that fit all you got to do is keep your weight constant, lol.
Quarantine sure isn’t helping me on that end!

I’ve been wearing my LW Rigger every day; it’s been one week since the arrival and she’s breaking in nicely. The first creases and wrinkles are always cool to see. The LW Horsehide is like a blank canvas that you have to decorate with your own unique “art” as you wear it.

From the shot of the sleeve this looks to be a substantial hide. Any idea of weight?
It’s definitely not a light weight jacket. I would say about 3-3.25oz. It’s not as wear resistant like CXFQHH but it still feel substantial and it feel buttery soft like a glove. The liner is a blanket and quite substantial. It actually looks a bit darker as pictured like on collar and certain parts of the sleeves
