Yep, I am thinking I need to adopt a kid so I have someone to hand my Aero down to....it is a monster good for at least a century.The way stuff is built these days you could “retire” from this hobby at 22 and it would still outlast 3 generations!
Speaking of mindless piling up of jackets, just unboxed this.
Perfection. Think of me if you decide to move it lol. But seriously, think of me.

That picture is a definitive answer to whether or not LW break in.

It is very pleasant to the eyes, like a double-layered birthday cake. What do you think of the hide?

I'll try to do a proper review tomorrow
I'll admit I still prefer the CXL but it's a very nice hide. Soft, super tough coating. It's got this smell that so reminds me of another leather jacket I've had but can't remember which. And it feels like I've had this jacket a million years ago. Weird. I'll try to do a proper review tomorrow.
This epitome of a cross zip needs to be dedicated to decades of service followed by family heirloom status for the next few generations so that future scientists and collectors can see what the heck leather jackets were all about.Speaking of mindless piling up of jackets, just unboxed this.

Thanks. After handling the jacket, I definitely see what all the fuss is about when it comes to vintage Cal Leathers.Amazing. You got yourself one of the better Cal's out there. That's that blanket-leather. Soft but super heavy.
Where are the fit pics? This looks brilliant. We need them now!We both know how any of my promises to keep any jacket worked out so far for me but this just really fits me so well in every regard, I can't imagine parting with it right now.
I mean, I could go for a brand new, full custom one but for the money I paid for this... I don't think I could've landed a better jacket.
Wonderful jacket.
