That JL looks a lot like the Gap jacket I received from @robrinay. Similar color anyway.

Alright, after handling elk a bit I don't know if it's the best choice. Since it's got a naked finish it will track any stain, even the darkest brown swatch got a water stain from a single drop that also left the area feeling dry. So on to the next idea... a navy blue bison I found. Think this would make a good type 3, or too odd?

Not the way I wear them but that is just me. I saw a friend of mine wearing a Polo shirt with the collar popped up the other day. It looked very 80s but it also looked pretty good on him.

Question....So is the leather Trucker available currently on the Levis site (not specified as Buffalo) leagues different than the one people sing praises about here?

Chollie, I don't know the answer to that, but I have one, size large. Sleeves are too long for me to wear it, so I still have the tags on it. If you're interested, let me know.

Thanks for that offer, I'd be looking for a medium if anyone is trying to dump one. And if anyone has insight on my question that would be appreciated!

Not sure what you mean but the one I saw in a Levi's store was mint.

Thanks for the info. My confusion is in the fact that for the past few years they've been changing the description of the jacket on their website, going from saying it was Buffalo leather to then not specifying at all...and back and forth between the two. I've always wondered if there were two different versions of this coat that they put out. Probably not.

Oh! Sorry, but yeah, you're right. The info on the website is confusing and conflicting and I know that there are several versions of the same jacket that quite differ in, well, general quality. But all I can tell you is that the one I've seen was a really nice, high quality jacket. It was made in Turkey, I believe, the cowhide was very thick, grain wasn't printed (even had some scaring) and the fit was fantastic. Fine jacket, all in all.
