1960s British Steerhide Black Single Rider. In theory the size should not fit me but seller has returns allowed so I decide to try it. And I was positively surprised as it fits quite well. Think silk lining and shoulder gussets do the job. It is very comfortable with only T- shirt . Bu I was surprised - I can wear it with thin blazer. The jacket is about 60 years old and it little bit stinks with sweat. Steerhide has a lot of patina and light distressing on sleeves. But it gives it unique character.
I have ordered ozone generator - will share my experience when I get it.

Looks very cool! Hope you can get it to work.

Another cold morning in Chicago. Started in the mid-30s and now in the mid-50s. Gotta love our weather. Spent this morning in my new shearling coat from Overland. Not my usual style, but loving the fit and feel of it.

Recently bought this vintage Avirex labeled A-2 second hand. Looks like the previous owner added the AVG patches. I really like the Flying Tigers patches, but I wanted to ask what people thought about the red pin up girl patch on the front. Would the jacket look better with the red patch removed? I keep thinking it would but want to gather some opinions first. Thanks!

maybe it doesn't fit with the rest of the patchwork, but I like it.
not sure why she's an angel instead of devil when she's red, but still I like it.

My absolute pleasure to wear Double helix A2. This thing is so comfortable it is silly. It is about 3 years old and still developing beautiful patina.

I've just got my humble Cooper, but A2's are definitely the most comfortable leather jacket to wear.

Just-procured vanson chopper. Pretty happy with the fit on this one

That hanger is going to wreck the shoulder profile of that jacket.

I also got to live the dream just briefly, however @Mulceber was wise enough to stay close. It fit @Bfd70 much better! The Langlitz Columbia @Mulceber is wearing was my jacket for the day.

And speaking of jackets, where else but Stitchdown Bootcamp could you find a Schott, an Aero, a Freewheelers Mulholland and a Langlitz in the same foursome? (Many others around as well).
