Hell J…i think you need one of those phone stick things on your Harley for some “Jackets in the Wild” thread. If there was one?
Kinda like @Dav used to do climbing trees with a chainsaw action pics.
Miss that guy.
Salute

A lonely stick? Never.

Dav always had great pics. And he had the most broken in Aero. Cool dogs too right?

this is real buffalo, asian "buffalo" hide usually mean water buffalo which is completely different animal and seen as cheaper alternative to cowhide since water buffalo is still widely used to plow rice field

Yeah. It’s his Bison. I briefly had a jacket in the hide. Thick hide, easy to wear, cool looking.

Oh I knew. lol. No worries.

And you know me well. I do have a cane with a hidden blade somewhere. Gift from grampa RIP. Better yet, I own a weighted walking/hiking stick I can go caveman with. That’s in my safe room with go-bag and extra gear.

No proper light for days, but I am eager to show this one off.

Johnson Leathers Cafe Racer in brown CXL HH bought from the lounge.
Many firsts for me: first JL, first brown CR, handwarmers, single chest pocket.

Leather is thinner than what Aero does and fit is real nice, so it’s a pleasure to wear.

Unlike some here, I don’t believe a CR is “the most boring” jacket variant, but due to its brutal simplicity perhaps the hardest to get exactly right. I do come pretty close with this one, IMO.

I love the shoulders on this jacket. CR's are great.

I wish someone good still made long variants, the kind of ABC used to make.

Thanks, Ivan.

No gussets, no underarm footballs. Not easy to have shoulders with an ok range of motion without the back getting too much material. I guess I hit my sweet spot bang-on.

Love this! How is it to get on/off?

This one and a wide-brimmed hat and you´d make head of the barn on the Yellostone ranch instantly.

It's not too bad! Zipper on the right hand side from the hem to just under the arm helps a lot with that.

I tried hats but found it I don't really feel comfortable in them. But yes, it does have a bit of a western wibe with the laces and the chest pockets.
