You bet, I'll take more photos tomorrow too so it's easier to see the color under natural lighting. The seal to me looks like a rich chocolate medium dark brown. The hand feel feels like a true midweight leather (atleast to me anyways). It was somewhat stiff when i first received it but nowhere...
@technovox @ton312 received the Kelpie samples today. I took photos late in the day so the lighting is not the best, here they are anyways.

Thanks man. I think they kinda look all the same lol but I do like how these guys look. It's 700 (paid $400 for down then rest of the balance upon completion) total including shipping and PP fees
Them FPs look great! Made me want to change my whole order completely lol
You aren't on that...
@Ayeteael i saw your FP engineer boots. Congratulations man! I should also be getting my onderhoud in black horsebutt soon. I hope I get the right size pair. I do like the shape of these though
@Salmosalar it is not readily available through Aero "yet", my friend @Robbie79 nailed everything down. Aero ordered a small batch of the black badalassi, which should be delivered in 5 weeks. They will make a small number of "test" jackets from that hide, you can reserve a slot if you want just...
No photos, sorry. The SFPD motorcycle cops wear the stock M-500 jacket with a badge holder, they can get a new jacket once every 5 years per Damon. Apparently they add 5-7" of added ease so the cops could fit in their vest/gear.
They are almost done with the SFPD jacket orders (total of 14) so hopefully we all get our jackets soon. We got a lot of members having projects with JL so there should be an influx of reviews/photos in the coming weeks/months
Just came back from the JL store for the fitting of the mock up jacket. I think this will be my best fitting JL jacket yet. Damon is so kind, he will write off the cost of the detachable mouton collar because the completion of the project got delayed. Hope to get the jacket maybe in two weeks. I...
Isn't that the preferred fit for this kind of boot? Maybe @Mysteryo or @dudewuttheheck @Blackadder can tell us engineer noobs how a proper fitting one should feel to wear
I am not the biggest fan of half belts but I think they look better in a long hb configuration. Although if I ever do fall for the pattern I know I won't have fit issues (in terms of back length anyways) with vintage jackets. Is Windward a fancy maker from a long time ago?
Definitely a cool pair and it is so fitting that you get to wear this in Chicago, the jacket looks right at home in your city.
What a cool guy wearing a cool jacket.
It looks great on you, trim enough but looks like you can layer up. The back length isn't so noticeable. The jacket could have well been made for you. Congratulations
