Yes, almost a little too softIs the sheepskin super soft and drapey?
Amazing CHPQ!
I was looking at several Lewis leathers, colors, and styles at The Stronghold when I bought this jacket. The salesman said, "Trust me, for your style, you want a Corsair in light brown sheep. And you need a size 44 that I will have Lewis modify." He was wearing a turquoise Lightning and I didn't want to listen to him, but I did. Even when I received the jacket, I was unsure of the choice and fit. Five years later, I absolutely love the jacket and nothing else in my collection is as fine.
Against any sense i have my heart set on a sheepskin dominator.Yes, almost a little too soft
My green one is slightly thicker and therefore not quite as soft (but still super soft)
I think you'll like itAgainst any sense i have my heart set on a sheepskin dominator.
Also, good cap!
I‘ll make a comparison with pictures and details of the two jackets and the leather once my FL is a bit more broken in.How would you describe the difference between RMC Shinki and FL Shinki and which leather do you like better and for what reason?
Waxed? I have an unlined Gustin waxed jacket that I wished had a liner. So I took a standard M-65 liner and had a tailor sew in the corresponding buttons into the Gustin and shorten the liner a bit. Worked great, the liner buttons in perfectly into the jacket. Maybe a bit too warm for HK though.Rogue Territory Supply Jacket arrived. It's a nice thing, but I should have got the lined version. Unlined feels a bit insubstantial even though it's a really tough material.
