Newly arrived German Lewis-ish, no regret at $190. Other than the dirty lining there’s actually no issue at all, zippers tapes all like new, pockets crisp. The cowhide is soft, about 2oz. If it were larger in the chest I’d definitely keep, but I think I’ll have to let this one go.

Premier HB Aero black Vincenza HH. Looks like we are finally starting to get jacket weather in the Southern Hemisphere.

Yes indeed ! only 6C in Perth Western Australia at 6AM. "jacket" weather for sure. Now 17C at 10.30am and I have logs to chop. No jacket required for that COVID-19 APPROVED "exercise"

Can't hang out with Friends so gathered up some jackets to hang out with. They are very quiet, but nice to look at. 4 Hercules and 1 Ralphs-Pugh. They don't require any Social Distancing.


I may have to do something like this too! I'll likely do it in my back patio or three season room.

The jacket that started it all for me. 1990 Eastman Luftwaffe in Horsehide. Bought "mail order" in Devon England.
Like me , the jacket has been resident in Perth Western Australia for near 30 years now.
Occasional use only jacket this, having at one time been my only and EVERY day jacket ! ( I have LOADS of others !)
It has been relined here in Perth by Sinikka leather in the late 90's. Most days here "too warm"
NOT SO today. That blue sky although looking lovely belies a 6C start. Constant COLD wind from the east ( the desert !)
2 shots to try and show the "patina" even tho' the jacket has been redyed by me as it had become "brown" over time.

Don't dye it again. The brown peeking through is one of the coolest things about it. Great jacket :)
