This is a Brown FQHH with gorgeous Common Riding wool lining.
I've worn it for the last month so there are a few superficial scrapes here and there.
To be honest with you, I think the scrapes add character and actually make the jacket look better.
It's broken in nicely and gotten really soft...
I have the same bag.
However, mine doesn't get near the hard use that Doublegun's does.
Currently, it's my daily briefcase.
I must say, it's one of the best made pieces of equipment I've ever seen.
No doubt it could withstand a nuclear blast. :)

Hey, sorry Papa M.
I now realize that I came across as a bit of a jerk.
Your analogy is right on.
That's why some people buy Hyundais, and some buy Ferraris.

Here's a shot of the Filson's I purchased.
They came very waxy feeling.
Very water resistant and very breathable.
And they're fully leather lined.
I paid like $170 for them, direct from Filson.

Jan,
You are a wealth of knowledge when it comes to men's outerwear.
I nominate you as "Poster of the Year" :eusa_clap
And that jacket is awesome!
Wish we could get stuff like that here in the US.

OK, I've been living with my Brown FQHH Highwayman for a while now.
It's breaking in beautifully and looks great.
However, like everything, it isn't 100% perfect for me.
So, I've been thinking what I would do differently if I had it to do over again.
Here's my list:
- light weight leather...
If you're buying this strictly as a motorcycle jacket, may I recommend you look at Vanson first.
I've got one of their Mark 2 CSRX jackets and it's absolutely beautiful in all respects. Plus, it's cut to fit you in the riding position.
Next, if you're looking at the jacket for casual around...
Thanks for the quick responses all.
I had a feeling this was the nature of a sprayed on dye.
As a matter of fact, I don't mind it at all.
I'd really like the jacket to look as "beat up" as it possibly can.
But I'll only do it through wearing, not artificial means.

The other day, I mistakenly got a small piece of Scotch Tape stuck to my Brown FQHH Highwayman.
When I pulled it off, the brown color came right off of the leather, exposing the tan HH underneath.
Is this normal?
Lenny
That's a great looking jacket, specially in goatskin.:eusa_clap
Plus, it looks good on you
It's funny, but that's another Aero I never even considered.
But after seeing it on you, I gotta say, I might like one some day too!
I was especially interested in this statement: "When I received...
