1950s Lawrence FQHH:
I've been to Cikarang, Jakarta, Bali and a couple of other states but I am one of the weird Asians in that I was born in a hot country but I love the cold.
Even during a tech dive I was only in a 3mm wetsuit and a 1.5mm vest w hood. It was 13 degree at 60m and I loved it lol.
On land 13 degrees, will find me in a sweater and jeans.
Anything above 24 degrees and I start to sweat like a pig.
There's no way I can wear a jacket in this weather.
I know your familiar with bk, how is your jacket coming along from them? Reg there is a few jackets on there vintage selection that resembles the 70s style.Does anybody know where I can find original or copies of the 1970s rocker style jacket? Big collar, multiple panels, donned by Lou Reed and gangsters as such. The so called “fight club” button front coat can be easily found, but I want something like this. (I know japan’s electric studio make them but forget it).
Always wanted one of these.. Aero had a similar hide 10 years back too. I managed to snatch up a 50s HB in that once but unfortunately that one didn't fit.. great leather!SB Kudu leather jacket...approx. 4.5oz and very heavy, at least as heavy as LW 4+oz HH

It's Non Stock Flyer (I think the tag said Bronson- can't remember). I wasn't going to go all-out on a 90 pound shirt, so I was really happy with this one. Guy on Ebay was helpful and recommended sizing up, which worked.Shirt is Bronson/Non Stock? I have the same one, agreed it is very decent for the money.
Thanks! It's definitely at least 4oz+ (could be 5oz) as the leather is soo thick but it doesn't require break-in and is easy and comfy to wear from day 1 even if it is really heavy. The leather itself is so unique - many scratches from the wilderness and not for lovers of uniform leather structure.The words "heavy weight" "4oz plus" "4oz plus" " too heavy" always makes me smile, great collection you have Robbie!
Some more pictures to show the thickness and surface of the leather...it's not everyones cup of tea but I really like itSB Kudu leather jacket...approx. 4.5oz and very heavy, at least as heavy as LW 4+oz HH
