I agree with John D Maccarter the cotton duck lining on the Test is very stiff. I have two Test 4.5 oz HH (Bk and Br) and they are stiff and heavy. Suburban has a satin lining which is not as stiff. BTW it's the first time I see a brown lining on a black Test, just like mine. I would have preferred a black lining, but I believe Stu had none at the time. Brown is not too bad after all. I'm curious: did you ask for a brown lining? Also, Stu put a C & C main zipper on my Bk Test at no extra charge. Except for the pull which is not spring-loaded, it is almost identical to a NOS Crown. I asked for a Talon, but I am quite please with the C & C. You never know what you're getting when ordering a LW. But until now I have been happy with the results.
