It's cold here - I'm wearing this Harris Tweed which has a half Belt - Dunn and Co.

Damn at a glance I thought that was the deadwood! LOL. I should learn to read. That’s a brilliant jacket. The buckles on the patch pockets are delicious. Absolutely love that! Any forum that appreciates cool leather jackets would be graced by these photos. Looking fly Robbie.
@ton312 Thanks, man! I appreciate your positive feedback!

Thank you very much! This is very comprehensive. I could easily live with a 23” or so chest and 19” shoulders. I would need a 25,5” sleeve and body too.
I usually wear a 44 in Aeros premier patterns and a 42 for the rest, so I would need to size down seriously for the CHPS.

I am really dedicated to not looking at new jackets for now, but I am also dedicated to visiting Aero sometime in the future. This would be the pattern, I will have a very, very close look at.

Enjoy and wear in good health. This is a great jacket and fit!
Just checked my 38 chips is more like 23. A little trimmer than my hwymans. Would make sense then @JMax 40 is 24. Pretty sure I used his sizing info plus help from aero to dial mine in.

Hey @Tom71 thanks! Sincerely. After seeing all the great LW black Horsehide MC jackets posted recently, I was stoked to get my Rigger. Totally thrilled with the jacket, the buying experience was a breeze (3 or 4 e-mails to Stu) and now, best of all, the upcoming break-in process! Couldn’t be happier! :):):)

Thor - belated Congratulations!! Job well done and very deserving of that jacket as well! Really amazing how time flies out there when you are having fun, and occassionally holding on for dear life - out there in that channel at least. :)

Coffee run to the coast today (with wife , daughter just home from her COVID-19 nursing shift , and mother in law)
This is my black goathide "Eastman Luftwaffe" copy , made in Perth Western Australia as a "cooler" (temp' wise !) alternative to my 1990 original from new Eastman Luftwaffe. It's time had just come up in the roster haha...
As almost always , the winter southern Indian Ocean in the backdrop. Lovely today 6C start with 21C max, light wind.
Pardon the "selfie" not really a forte of mine.

Thanks mate! Im lurking here quite some time, but wasn’t chance to post something as I still don’t own any leather jacket (not counting some fashion brands :confused:). Now waiting for a great new one from field leathers :cool:

Very cool! Hey it does not have to always be leather - just take a look below...

Here it is May 21st, still running the heat off and on at home. Partially due to working from home, but we've had a really extended jacket season this year in the Midwest US. Looks like today and tomorrow are it as it will be up into the 80's and muggy/humid after that.

So in celebration of jacket season slipping away I put on full Business Suit attire first, really not sure what prompted the grumpy "grin" ...

Then finish off with a Highwayman, still a long way from broken in here:

Have a great Thursday, but do as I encourage not as I do - try to smile! :)
