Nothing like the first ride of the year. Wore the JL in honor of the late jacket master, Mr. Johnson. It's really sad when we lose an artisan in the jacket world. It just seems like there are less up and comers to replace the true masters.

Johnson Leathers truly makes a great motorcycle jacket. Thier 500 pattern is right up there with the best MC patterns. It just works on the bike. Mid 40's in Cleveland today with just a t shirt underneath. All the wind is sealed out and plenty of mobility. I am sure Mr. Johnson had his fingerprints on the 500 series patterns since he was a rider himself.

This again. Perfect winter jacket. Allows for plenty of layering, and the hide doesn’t mind the occasional rain or snow.

Only thing that irks me (not too much, though): Even after some decent wear it still sheds gazillions of orange fibres. On my mostly black or navy blue jumpers this makes for an interest albeit undesired contrast…

So something awesome happened a few days ago. A guy had a custom made aero jacket that didnt fit him at all sized at a 34.

The Price was insane at 150€ so I couldnt just dismiss it. And boy am I glad I didnt I realized that the measurments were pretty much the same as all my other well fitting jackets. Needless to say I pulled the trigger and well…
