    Which makes it perfect for the bay area.

    Good catch, I think it is that one.

    JL custom m200

    You know, looking through the Vicenza thread, and all the recent posts of Shinki, I really do think that new stuff is very akin to a cross between those two.

    Yeah I was shocked how much I ended up liking it too. Its gonna make breaking in my cxl that much more miserable.

    JL custom m200

    Yeah, the whole fascination with zippers almost drew me in, namely because of the more unique pulls and such. But I've broken my share of zippers in my life, and what I've learned is always get ykk. The best, most durable backpacks use them. Most of my good jackets use them. In the end they...

    Its a great leather, stop by their place, they have samples and jackets in it already so you can really get a good feel for it.

    The sheen is subtle, and doesn't have a squeaking about it, more of a crispness as it needs to break in still if that makes sense.

    JL custom m200

    Jin, btw, IIRC, I think Damon said they're planning to make a line of jackets with the new German stuff (they really need to give us a name for this leather so we can stop calling it the German stuff, lol), I'm feeling like they're probably going to a cafe style, might be a good opportunity to...

    Me too, probably another couple/few weeks. Frankly, the wait is a welcomed distraction with everything going on these days.

    JL custom m200

    Well, I'm no leather expert by any stretch, but I gotta say from my casual perspective I love it. Frankly, I was mad that they didn't have it when I bought my first jacket, lol. It's a really approachable, comfortable, handsome leather. I saw on the tag on the sample said ranger, so got me...

    JL custom m200

    I just got back from JL today, took my jacket in to finally get some alterations/changes done. It was cool to see my jacket back there with all the new stuff, really made me appreciate my jacket that much more. All the Horween and other stuff is great, but frankly my "uninteresting" 3+oz naked...

    Jackets You Regret Buying vs. Ones You Got Out of Your System

    Having had a few suits custom tailor made, and seeing how much trial and error there is with it, I was a bit leery with buying a semi-tailored jacket online, especially since I have an awkward shaped body (5'9, 220lbs). That said, things off the rack tend to fit me fairly well once I figure out...

    Yeah, I like that it fades/creases to brown, makes it look warmer and less ashy. Hmm, I doubt it's teacore though since the horween was pretty much the only teacore option they have. The specs on that leather otherwise sounds good, I bet it smelled good too being veg and all.

    How was the German horsehide compared to CXL? Is it teacore?

    Lol I may run into some of you tomorrow, I'm trying to get in there for my jacket. But my fit jacket won't be for a minute.

    That is nice.

    JL custom m200

    JL's naked cow 3oz that I got on that jacket is super soft and pliable, like a thicker lamb skin and it has a great hand feel. My only regret was that I should've went with a thinner hide, but seems like people here love the thick stuff. Also, it's not an interesting leather per se, like there's...

    Thank you. Again OP, sorry for hijacking. Monitor, I think when my second jacket is done whenever that is, I may start a thread.
