How thick is it? I also have a Suburban. Mine is 4 oz. It's amazing but after two years it barely shows any signs of patina.

I think it's 3.5oz, can you post pics of yours? :)

You certainly need a russet and a black one... and maybe more :D
In any case do you have a LW jacket at the moment?
I don't. I had a j-23 but sold it to Mysteryo. I would say it was probably the most well built jacket I've owned. Ultimately I preferred my Vanson for functions sake but I put LW's in a class all their own. There wasn't a single stitch out of place. It was the most error free jacket I've ever seen. And that HH Stu uses...it's something else.

Hmm... it would be a difficult choice. The russet PJ27 at the end of the page on his site looks really good.
It obviously works perfectly in black as well.
I'd probably say get it in russet and leave black for some future project. If I am not mistaken, you have more black jackets than any other colour, don't you?

It looks like a 3 oz, so if you dont know for sure, I could be right. Cause 3.5 and 4 oz isnt a big difference, but mine is like it made of metal[emoji1] But yours looks pretty supple. Yeah, I will post my pics asap.

It's almost exactly the same as mine except mine is a size 42. Fantastic jacket, feels almost like light armor even at 3-3.5oz.

Thought that it was time to look at the suburban again :)
These pictures make it look darker

Looking very well loved! :)

It is the easiest jacket to wear out of all of them :)

Where is the fit picture?

Very fair question, will take a few fit pics :D

Always my favorite of the LW jackets, and what a nice rendition. BTW, I've always wanted to ask a LW owner this: when it's raining outside, do you ever hear a laughing, chuckling sound coming from your closet? Just wondering.

Less of a laugh and more of an eagerness to go out and a "hell yeah!" shout :)

Here is my suburban after one year

This looks fantastic, you have been wearing it very regularly!

Gorgeous
Pure and simple classic with extraordinary horse hide. And that colour!!!

It's not as dark as it looks, for some reason it came out quite a bit darker. Still a very nice colour :)
