thanks! I first bought a 42 himel a1 (the size I usually wear) and it was just too big and airy for me, I could layer a denim jacket underneath too easily. I came across this size 40 and bought it and sold the 42.
So my advice is to size down with Himels if you’re slim build.
I came across this Japanese reproduction of a cal-leather jacket.
Looks really well made.

yeah i noticed the main zip replacement, i mainly bought because the leather was beat to hell :) it's a wonderful heavy jacket, that's why i just bought another.
I noticed Cal Leathers still make the jackets?, did you get to see / feel the quality? id be tempted buy a new one.
Yeah i plan to at some point, i imagine it will be pricey + shipping from the UK and back. I've been wearing it daily and the rip doesn't really bother me just yet.
here's my Cal leather Jacket, it has no labels inside. I have no idea what decade its from.
I did a little unboxing video here a while back if anyone is interested. :)
It unlisted on youtube, i originally made it for Terry.
haha same, i was resisting from buying and then an offer came in this morning and i caved in.
I have another Cal leather thats pretty beat up, missing the belt and belt loops. I think this one might be a size up too.
i'll post pics when it arrives.
more here of my other one...
