OK, I’ll do that. In a different thread, I’ll update with the wear-in process and color change.

California sun will be good for it.

I tried on a Campus Jacket at the Mister Freedom store a few weeks ago. I'm about a 46" chest these days, so the **L was slightly tight in the shoulders, but it's a lovely jacket.

I went to their site. I’m a 48/50R I don’t think I’d squeeze into their 42 XL

The Campus was a jacket i was sad to send back!
It looks and feels great as a summer jacket, the best natural jacket i have handled, but the fit was completely wrong for me.
It is very short and baggy, not really a tall/athletic body type design IMO.

Yep—the Campus is short and relaxed, for sure. I think it’s the signature cut that pays homage to a similar style of the 1930s. In addition to my fitted cafe racers and STF cross-zips, I figured I’d try one of these in the rotation. And I agree, it would make a great summer jacket... or Northern California climate jacket.

Also, the fit of the Campus is more in line with this one from this smuggler:

I just posted a quick update on the jacket's home thread about a month ago:

It's too hot for jackets right now but next time I have it on I'll try to take some pictures.

This is the sort of thing where I tell myself "if I had this jacket, I'd take the same photo of it every day, and then string them together into a time lapse and upload it to YouTube as a massive viral sensation amongst leatherheads".

But I also know that I'd manage about a week's worth of photos before giving up!

That is looking great. I am just deciding on my next jacket and was hoping that the CXL natural would age as nicely as the Tenjin photos floating around here. Thank you Guppy!

Awesome! That's the same style that's mostly associated with Luftwaffe jacket nowadays, right? Only in tan. Beautiful!

Natty Tan CXL boots. Timberland Boot Company Smugglers. Timberland gets little love round here but the TBC boots are their “higher end” boots and on par with my Red Wing Iron Rangers, Chippewas, Wolverine 1000 M, etc. Good boots.

I sometimes ride in these so it has picked up scuff marks, dirt, some darkening and other signs of wear. I added the black rubber soles to ride.

My Schott 877 it’s aged nicely over the years. I love the grain on this one.

I like the looks of the Bill Kelso Natural Badalassi Cowhide. The Duke or Wingman would look killer with this leather. Hmmmm......

More shots of that Natural Badalassi Cowhide from Bill Kelso.

I like those boots!
