If you've clicked you probably know what you're looking at, but just in case: this is the custom 2mm hide version of the Leon from Fine Creek Leathers.
It's a "cleaner" version than the standard with a heavier leather; no epaulettes (or cutoffs for that matter).
A very fast fader, worn for...

My Flathead Rider and Racer jackets have been worn quite a lot these past few months, thought whilst I have a decent camera in my hands I'd snap some pics.
