    Too bad it's not a leather jacket worthy weather earlier today. Those boots look good and well worn! Congrats on a new pair of shoes, they look very proper. I've never tried shoes with a leather sole before but yours look terrific

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    What a lovely jacket, looks great on you and a perfectly fitting jacket to boot. That's so rich looking, it's really confusing to look at because how there's different shades Bouncing on different panels depending on how the light shines on it. Very cool, thanks for sharing.

    Golden Brown CXL FQHH

    @Psant25 I think our jackets are from the same batch so it will show some shades of rusty reddish brown color. The armpits on my jacket is showing that already so it will really pair well with your Alden's.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    It does look good. If 5* gets more serious with the hardware they use then that's going to elevate the whole look of the brand The older 5* shearling was a 10mm, right? So this is a thicker boy for more winter fun lol I wished we have a little colder weather where I live so I can justify...

    Golden Brown CXL FQHH

    That or maybe the Horween Lux might be the most comparable to it as some members who have had a SB jacket in that leather. I have a sample of the brown pigment and it's a darker shade of brown and it has a lot more sheen to it. I'd say a completely different look and yes to us here it will be...

    It's the year of the shearling for you @MrProper Hope you receive it soon. Can't tell on my tablet if that is black or seal brown but it looks kinda seal to me.

    Golden Brown CXL FQHH

    JL 3.5oz brown CXL HH. I think this is way off of the shade of brown you are after.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Agreed, the JL jackets are way more comfortable to wear compared to the Aero jackets I've had the chance of wearing. There is so much more mobility in the shoulders and it does not get tiresome to wear for longer periods of time. Okay that's so cool to know. We've got a regular all the way in...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Very lovely collection of footwear. So interesting to see how the light bounces off of the shoes and gives you different depth of colors depending on the angle and lighting. I'm sure this is going to be more confusing in the color spectrum with daylight. Shell cordovan is really special. Got...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Got it, now I know why Damon at JL looked at me funny when I asked about cordovan and they showed me burgundy lol it's probably just how dark the shade of the Horween #8 makers request/prefer to use Got it, I knew I was missing something. Thanks for clarifying that. That makes it easier to...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Agreed on what @JustinW said. Can't go wrong with brown cxl or Horween Milan. just to clarify: burgundy cxl is different from cordovan cxl, right?

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    I hear you the normal burgundy isn't so nice compared to the color #8. Isn't color #8 and cordovan cxl the same color? I get them confused all the time

    Good luck with your HH jacket project. If you want to wear something slimmer and lighter, you can always try the midweight HH they offer (Horween Vermont/Horween Milan/Masaye from Germany) aside from the heavyweight Horween CXL (though you can have CXL skived down if you really want a light CXL)...
