This is @Marc mndt old RL Polo.

Nice. Similar ballpark to my Aero Bootlegger. I like the horizontal pocket in place of the handwarmers. Interesting thought, as I only have handwarmers on most of my jackets for the look - I never actually use them as pockets....

ETA: No jacket for me again today, as the accursed Southern English Summer has kicked in again, and it's unpleasantly hot. Boo. :(

New purchase, a vintage deerskin pull over shirt from the Deerskin Tradiing Post (Danvers, Massachusetts)

I wasn't looking for one of these, but i saw one come up pretty cheap on ebay and the size was right so i thought i'd give it a go. It's not for everyones taste i know. Not sure how i feel about wearing leather bare chested, not sure i want to sweat in this thing, I might wear it with a vest.

Sorry for thread derail but are you happy with Branson quality for the price? Are they tts and do they shrink at all?
I have bought quite a lot of their stuff. I feel the quality is great for the money. Their hoodies are amazing. I bought these pants and they turned out waaay to big so I finally gave in and put them on a 90c cycle and now they kinda fit. I have no experience measuring pants, but Branson put out great size charts for people more experienced than me.

fantastic. I'm thinking about getting one or the sh model. I sold my 519 and kind of miss it, but figure might as well get a horse style if I'm dipping my toes back in.
If you're looking for a "Perfecto style" then I really don't think it gets much better than this 613H hide. I might have a bit of bias, but everything from the feel to the smell just enlivens my senses so much and makes me think that this is everything that a cross zip motorcycle jacket should be.

for sure. I have a 118 as well which I love. Wore it today and it just exudes positive vibes.

On your 42, how does it fit? What's your height/weight if you don't mind me asking? I seem to be in between sizes on most Schotts and have had to shrink a few of them to get a little bit better fit. I'm a 40 in the 118 and it's a tad bit loose but not bad. Thinking about grabbing a 613sh in size 40 to go for the tight, maybe wearing as open only style. I can get away with in Los Angeles and most of time just wearing tshirts anyway. I know it will be on the edge of being able to zip up, but I figure I already have the 118 which is a bit more relaxed fit.
