Simmons Bilt Statesman black Clayton hh
Perfect fit and the Statesman jacket looks much better on you then on their website! I also like the contrast stitching but haven't heard much of their Clayton HH they offer...anyway beautiful jacket!

Clayton is my new favorite horsehide! (At least for a while it is). Best way to describe it is to say that in terms of look and feel it sits somewhere between Aero’s Vicenza and Horween FQHH. Its stiffer and thicker and than Vicenza, it has the shiny finish of the CXL FQHH, but its more pliable and lighter than it and brakes in easier. Great hide all in all!

As a bonus I really dig the statesman pattern!

Here’s a few extra pics of the jacket:

How does Clayton perform in the rain, relative to both Horween FQHH & Vicenza? Do you know what tannery provides it? Thanks!

I'd say better than Vicenza but worse than CXL FQHH. It's veg tanned so in comparison to chrome tanned leather it's always going to be less water proof. I believe the tannery is called Clayton of Chesterfield or Clayton Leather.
