    CLX Steerhide vs CLX FQHH - Jacket measurements

    My experience is similar, but I would say that steer breaks in quicker than HH. I have no opinion on which one is "stronger". There's various ways define that, but both are plenty strong and are enough for me. HH has something more of a mystique because it's comparatively rare to see it used in...

    Looking for Moto Style brown leather jacket recommendations

    Of the three, I'd go with Aero. The Sheene is a great jacket, the build quality and materials exceed Schott, and the price beats Field. Consider the August collar as an alternative to the Highwayman collar. For leather, you have a lot of great options, from CXL to Badalassi. Kelpie, Jerky...

    Would this warrant an exchange?

    As it wears in it will become less noticeable. The other grain will emerge through the top coat and it will blend in. You'll see it because you know it's there, but anyone else will just see the jacket.

    Aero leather natural chromexcel

    Aero have two or three natural leathers that I'm aware of. Horween natural CXL, Natural Vicenza, and Unfinished horsehide. Natural CXL has sort of a honey like color. Natural Vicenza starts out a lighter shade and darkens to a more orange brown. Unfinished looks like a white guy walking around...

    Freewheelers Mulholland Alternative

    Check out Eastman Leather's ELMC Highway Star. It's very similar, still expensive and high end and overhyped, but about half what you'd pay for the FW Mulholland. https://www.elmc.co/jackets/688-highway-star-black.html

    Schott guys opinion-lose or keep the zipper tab?

    Personal preference, but I would keep it unless it bothers you. It makes it easier to grab the pull with gloves on.

    Schott 689HH Fit Check.

    How is it when your arms are extended forward, as though reaching for handlebars?

    Schott 689HH Fit Check.

    I think it could do with more length. Sleeves and body look short. It would be easier to tell for sure if you tucked in the shirt. But I think you need at least +1".
