Much cooler photos that I posted of the Bates.
It's getting quite warm here (87F today) however soon I may search out a better place to take the tripod-mounted shots such as you're doing here.

Received this US Made Co jacket today. This thing is a beast, beautiful soft yet heavy leather built for riding. Side note, I picked up a jacket a few years ago (Harley patch) and never really knew who built it just that it was a beautiful soft yet heavy leather with USA snaps. After a little research I figured out it was a US Made Middleton Mass. and my newest one is A Danvers Mass. label. Only difference being the back pattern is different. The Middleton has a western style yoke and the Danvers is a solid one piece back.
I reached out to US 1 leathers in Danvers and she confirms it’s the same US Made Co renamed.

^^ Those are excellent jackets, way under-rated. I never had a one-piece back model. Enjoy it!

I regretted selling that one with the patch almost immediately So when this one popped up I jumped on it. The leather is so nice on these.

HD AMF Nylon Champ. Such a cool jacket. I don’t think it was worn much. This nylon is thicker and more robust than the satin twill on my Oakbrook. It’s a sturdy jacket, not just a glorified windbreaker. Tagged 40 but measurements allow me to wear it. I wish it was a 42 but hey, I’ll keep it until I find another. Unlikely.

Looks like a dead ringer for the Fox Creek Vented Racing Jacket. Are the hand warmer pockets leather lined?

I initially thought the first one was Fox creek but it’s a US Made co and the one I just received has the label.
Wow! Shrunken horse from JL right? Looks amazing!
Visited my favorite historic aircraft, the B-29 “Enola Gay” at the National Air and Space Museum, Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, VA (the whole museum is amazing!). Wearing a MilSpec G-1, tho maybe I should have worn an A-2 or at least a B-10/B-15

Wow! You rock that thing like it was made for you.
This should help put an end to the lukewarm reception of all things Y2 in these parts...

These are fantastic trousers. If you want some recommendations for where you can get knits, trousers, etc that would complement both workwear and tailoring when you're there, let me know.
