It took time for me at least to get used to short jackets. Good thing I have a brother to tell me that side pockets kinda ruins the blousy and boxy look. Plus high rise pants all the way!

Vanson’s “Cycle King”. I think you have to go through the HD museum’s website to purchase new. It is now made of CW and not the X-150 as stated on the HD site.

Bronc. Them cowboys are tough as woodpecker lips.
In your opinion which is the better leather for this jacket ?

Hard for me to answer- both are among my favs. Since the X is no longer available I think I’d prefer it in that hide. The feel and look of good CW is more in line with the vintage HD jacket hides. Both are good for riding- CW a bit easier to move in and more often thicker. The X/Octagon is pretty. CW can be too though.
No, I take it back. Since I almost exclusively ride in this jacket it’s CW. But at this point, any jacket in the X would tempt me. Not easy to find.

Colimbo for today
Ha, you’re right. I actually didn’t think about it. I noticed your excellent outfit and it just happened to be very similar to mine.

That's an unusual style, what jacket is that?

Ranger Jacket - 20oz. Sage Waxed Canvas
Rugged yet refined, this is our take on the perfect waxed canvas jacket. Waxed jackets were never part of the plan when we launched the brand, but shop owner Daniel could never find a waxed jacket with the perfect combination of quality materials and features, so we took all our favorite details...
i asked the owner to swap the snap buttons with black donut buttons and reinforce the hand warmer pockets with rivets.
Well, I officially joined the Schott Rancher crowd. Found a 38 for a decent price so jumped on it. I may actually be able to wear it a few times a year in South Florida. A Gordon Lightfoot ticket stub from March 8, 1972 was in one of the pockets, so that's cool.
