I posted more about this in crosszip nation. Its "male hide leathers" and I would like to know more about it.
Your jacket looks pretty awesome right out of the box! Reading about it in the Johnson's thread was the reason I took the dive with JL myself too.
Every single one of my leather jackets has a few spots that could use thicker leather. I find that makers tend to use the thinner and grainier hides on the side gussets, under arms and inside lapel. I guess this is just how the game is played.
As long as you don't hear an answer like "wear it about 1 year, the sleeve will shorten by 2 inches", we all happy.Thanks man! I know I aired concerns here but my overall response is “woah that’s cool!”
I did email Damon about the fit and the funny front panel just because I wouldn’t want to say something negative without also bringing it to him. Honestly the bigger-than-expected fit is more of a concern to me. I’m curious about his take on fixing it now vs giving it some wear first.

ThanksAwesome. What is it? I’ve sort of been looking for a straight zip vest.
It's 3 degrees Celsius
so nice...
yeah that's how to wear dual zip!! perfect
I think that is the cause of chilly mornings here, even now I can feel the heat radiation of the sun, but the wind is cold, making very weird hot and cold feeling

I certainly also could live with a Large, but back length certainly profits from the „X“
