That where I started in all this! But yeah I get why you’d say that. Tbh I just wanted to check this one out and the price was too low to look away from. Would be cool if IH did a first zip or 101j in this denim. I’d be all over that.

Awesome! Just the right amount of wear.
Should've gotten that one years ago. Ex said CR's should only be in leather so I didn't. She wasn't all wrong, TBH but this is phenomenal.
I wonder if it'd be too obscene if they made a Cross zip in this? Like, same one they have in leather, only in denim.

Aero 1930s 1/2belt in dark seal vicenza....in isolation.
A bootlegger style cross zip with a halfbelt would be ultra cool!

Not Iron heart, but dosen't Stuart do a LW J23 in Denim? That would be a kicker! 
He does Randy but it looks to be made from Mitt Romney’s jeans. The black camvas version is quite nice though. I’ve considered it.Not Iron heart, but dosen't Stuart do a LW J23 in Denim? That would be a kicker!

How heavy are those 21 or 23 oz jean jacket?
I’d have to weigh one. Way lighter than a leather of the type you and I enjoy but probably along the lines of say a vintage Brooks CR. Something about denim of that weight though. It appeals. It’s a bit hard to explain...until you put one on, after that...makes perfect sense.

Aero A-2. The dark seal's my new favorite Vicenza color. Really comes to life in the sunlight. This batch is slightly thicker, so the jacket feels more like horsehide. Well, it is horsehide! Side note, Gail constructs a fine jacket. Knits are still very tight.
That is one bad a$$ jacket and it fits you great!

New Bronson L-2B in Sage Green.Great jacket for the price. Trim fit as I opted for the size 38 (they were sold out of the 40s so I took a gamble). Sleeves are probably a touch short but not enough to really worry me. All in all I quite like it.
This goatskin looks beefy and it's noticeably thicker than most of other goatskins isn't it? Very, I mean Very interesting leather! Nice jacket and cool hat Sir, nothing but perfection!
Nick, it's a keeper. Thick Vicenza is quite a rare thing, it should age interesting with wear. Well done mate!

A size 42, denim rider/racer as above weighs around 1380g, 3.04lbs, I can’t be anymore accurate than that
Little tight and a little short. I’ll probably have to do the dreaded soak, wear until dry/ self loathing exercise with this one but that can wait.
