Hope I am putting this in the appropriate thread. If not, apologies. This is the label of a jacket I acquired. I've seen some older posts concerning Natal/Natel. Am not sure if anyone ever solved the mystery of who made these jackets. This jacket was purchased at Kelly's Leather Works in Chicago, who I believed closed within the past few years. I'll try to post some photos of the jacket.

'Here is the Natel jacket. I am a bigger guy, so my jackets are not going to look as sexy as many on this forum. It is like brand new. Paid $100 for it. Would appreciate any feedback on this brand and whether it was a good purchase in the eyes of the experts. Many thanks!

I love this color. It's more vibrant than what usually see on suede / roughout jackets.

Thanks! Yes it is a very rich golden color that I absolutely love. It's one of the reasons that I really wanted this jacket.

Just such a solid, well made jacket in a nice hide. One of my personal faves on TFL. And as always you have a very well coordinated look

Brilliant! The color looks better! Did you oil/ condition it? I too am sporting the star-cardia again today. I hot watered the collar and clipped it so it lays flat. Will repeat after I get home from the store. This one feels much more 70’s with this collar, which may require a pilots license to wear. LOL.

Aero Highwayman via my trade with @jonbuilder. Thanks!

Fits 100x better than my STF BL. I can actually zip it and exhale. I’m not used to the boxy shape, but I think this HWM still looks pretty good (just better when worn open). Looking forward to logging some miles in this.

^^About as perfect a HWM fit as I've ever seen...

Great grain in that leather popping very nicely as well.

The jackets doing all the work, all I have to do is wear it! When I slipped it on the first time, it felt like it was made for me. Fit better than the one actually made for me. Serendipitous and another reason the TFL is such a great/addictive/entertaining/insert positive adjective place.
