Day 24 of wearing my Chopper. Finally starting to get some break in. Love it just as much as the day it arrived. I have a strong feeling that is going to continue.
Thats the best!

That's nice that it's from a TFL member, I think I saw that jacket recently. Hope it will fit well and can't wait to see your jacket when you get it.

Thats what I thought. Definitely a link between the two but separate makers. Just like Langlitz and Classic.
I was going to bid on this. I thought about reaching out to the seller too, but got lazy. You didn’t and scored. Lesson learned. Thank you professor.

Thanks! Don‘t you think it’s too short? It’s shorter than Most of my jackets. Probably it looks good and I‘m just not used to it. This was the main reason why I sold the Vanek.

Thats nice! Looks great, you have so many new nice jackets none of them have any wear like this
More clouds and rain than sun for days and days. I wore my GW goatskin cossack to the beach yesterday as it feels cold to me with strong winds and occasional rain. The water temperature was 76 F. and the air 71 F.. The goat skin holds up pretty well to rain, and I go for a swim to warm up, dodging 10 foot waves.

Agree with @handymike that length looks great! Really nice how the open lapel follows the chest pocket line. Beautiful jacket and fit @Robbie79

I have been eyeing a few linen and linen-blend options. There are several safari jackets I've come close to getting, and a nice navy seersucker jacket recently caught my eye. I actually got a French bleu de travail in linen/cotton but it was unfortunately too long for me.
Not quite the same attraction as a nice leather option, but better than destroying your leathers with sweat
