    Trade my Lost Worlds Suburban 42L grainy 4.5 oz FQHH?

    I believe you will really like the J100. In fit but especially the leather. After having had several 4 oz LW jackets direct from Stu I was surprised at the 3oz suppleness. Great leather!

    Trade my Lost Worlds Suburban 42L grainy 4.5 oz FQHH?

    Based on a 40 inch chest you have chosen well. The shoulders, I believe, will fit fine with the stout LW leather. I am excited for you and look forward to the fit photos.

    Trade my Lost Worlds Suburban 42L grainy 4.5 oz FQHH?

    I have never tried in a highwayman but found the Suburban to be a fabulous fit. The heavy leather works well with the design. The shoulders fit nice and square there was no bagginess to speak of. As long as you dial in the sleeve length and shoulder width the jacket is likely to work for a...

    Clayton veg-tanned horse hide

    Thanks for this educational post. I have a Clayton Leather Cafe Racer from Simmonsbilt. The leather is thick and tough. Tough like Lost World's leather but far more pliable and soft. I conditioned mine with Huberds Shoe Grease generously, and the leather turned out spectacular. The jacket...
