How do you Like it? To me the appeal of the deck jacket is it’s comfortability. The leather ones look like living in a wrestling match.
This one is pretty comfortable. The only thing I would want different is the sleeve lining. The whole jacket now is lined with alpaca/wool fur, but the sleeves could be lined with quilted nylon imo. This one is the Y'2 indigo horsehide, it is very soft, no worry about drape or comfort, but the sleeves could be lined with thinner quilted liner imo. The cloth deck jacket sleeves are easier to bend because the cloth is thinner, so I think for the leather version it pays to reduce the inside lining to match the mobility of cloth/alpaca sleeves. As it is right now, it can feel like a thinner B3 but not quite B6 sleeves.
