I wish everyone a happy new year and good health for you and your loved ones!

So today to keep warm with this horrible windchill (100km/h) I wear my Aero B3

That looks balmy. You still have green grass and no snow.

It was -26 C here, where I am at, on new years day. A chinook hit and we are up to +2 C today.

I live in the south of France so it’s not that cold (8°C) but my area has a lot of wind (windchill -1°C). Like I said at the moment it’s quite strong.
Even some Canadians think it’s colder here because of the wind than in Montreal... (I know crazy) and for someone living in the south of France as soon as the temp is below 5°C it’s quite cold.

Two inches short in the body..little long in the sleeve. Across the back looks border line too large to me.
Yup- it's a strange one. It actually covers my belt when I stand normally, but it's very much a jacket that I need to wear over a t-shirt. As soon as I wear an undershirt and a thick cotton shirt, it's tight and 'lifts'. Christmas weight also probably not helping :)

Shame this JL m-500 isn't a better fit for me. It's clearly a size too small but what a jacket. Amazing grain and heft. Some of the thickest cowhide I've handled. Sorry HD, I won't be smiling until my 3.0 Bootlegger is done. But I will throw a smirk... Hopefully before April I'll be sporting some Cordo in these hallowed pages!

That's a perfect cross zip if I had ever seen one! Everything about it is just right, design, cut, leather... Everything! But yeah, it's short on you. Such a shame...

Seems lately buying stuff one size too small is my MO. But this only set me back $150. Somebody here shorter than me should buy it. It’s such a nice piece of leather. Shame to send it back to the uneducated eBay masses, who likely won’t appreciate it for what it is.
