    nah..it’s truly a palpable difference.. if you put on my Brand new Aero Dustbowl* (which is a very similar looking and fitting jacket).. and then put the GW on.. you’d agree 100% * I love my Dustbowl, but plan to sell it as it’s just to similar to the Hercules

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

As has been fully documented in a few threads here on TFL these last few years I placed my Good Wear order on March 29th 2014.. well today the wait ended, and it ended in the best way possible. John Chapman delivered. I could gripe about the wait, the gaps in...
