Dumb question, but what is the name for this flap that buttons on the top of some jackets? Is there a name?

Could it be easily removed? I noticed for example rainbow country selling it on their hercules, but previously it wasn't on there in past years. Think it sticks out like a sore thumb and looks really lame flapping there. Guess it could be buttoned but still

throat latch. I wouldn't remove it to be honest but better to ask a good leather tailor.

Maybe a dumb question, but is there a great visual difference in the color between brown CXL horse and brown CXL steer? I already have a brown cxl horse jacket and am thinking of brown cxl steer next, but wondering if they'll look too similar in color

All the pictures I have seen of brown CXL Aero jackets are the same. There may be minimal differences per batch. But I think they will look too similar to be worth it.
But maybe someone here has both and can make a better judgement.

From what I've also seen, I'm inclined to agree. It's really not a big deal for me tbh, just curious. I figure the jackets will both age in their own unique way in the end
