You should have showered whilst wearing the jacket with the fringes and then without the fringes and compared drying time...
I thought you where a scientist Mike, you let us all down!
I'm having a hard time believing this statement: "I recently learned that the fringe actually serves a functional purpose, allowing the jacket to shed rain while drying faster when wet because the fringe acts as a series of wicks to disperse the water. That sounds like a very practical and...
The zig zag is a standard feature of the Lee Storm Rider.
The "decorative cuff" is a take on a traditional cuff, i have seen it described as "an American cuff", Aero uses it a lot, their 50s Half belt for example.
Obenaufs is even stickier and thicker than Pecard's, i use it on boots but i wouldn't use it on a jacket.

That Nick guy is useless...
He spent some time trying to tell me that my CXL Vansons couldn't actually be made by Vanson as the underside of the leather was brown and Vanson only used leather that was black all the way through...
I told him i thought he was confused, explained the situation...
Not mine, my brother is also getting into LW, i made the mistake of sending him a link to a good deal in his size last year... Now even i am envious of this one:
I was just on the phone with stuart, double checked my information.
He does get the hides delivered in sides, without the legs, but with the butt, shells included.
