Back here after a bit. Wearing my Vanson Stormer wax cotton jacket. This one has seen some decent use. I have the same one in green as well. They make great riding jacket for warmer, wet weather.

Starting to get some jacket weather in my part of the world, SB cafe racer, Modena Horse black Leather, red contrast stitching, lightweight Rob Roy Tartan lining, cheers View attachment 238094

Thuggee - that red contrast stiching really pops! I think it looks very cool, sharp on that one. It may not be to everyone's taste, but for specific jackets and CR/Motorcycle oriented, it's a neat, sharp look.

Stock. The Thurston stock lengths all pretty much fit me. Which is a godsend and a curse.
Are you a taller gent? Because Thurston always seems to add a couple of inches length to all of their stock jackets which is a bit annoying for someone of slightly above average height 5'10" like myself. Otherwise there are a few jackets that I could have bought without hesitation from them.

Thought I’d post a update. It shows “evolution” after a few seasons of pretty light wear (which is just a function of being mostly at work or home). The phone camera doesnt seem to capture the grain very well but it has developed on the sleeves. The fit via Thurstons remains $.

Good Morning Everyone, today Benny Holiday is modelling a 16-year-old Aero halfbelt in outstanding CXL FQHH, a $20 Lowes brushed cotton shirt, some cheap relaxed-fit chinos he bought online a couple of years back from a store he can't even remember the name of, and ridiculously long Coronavirus hair that hasn't been cut for 9 weeks. Yes folks, winter is here in chilly western Sydney, and isn't Mr Holiday happy? "I just wanted to wear a leather jacket like the guys on the Fedora Lounge." Thank you for that enlightening comment, Mr Holiday. And now get back to work, ya bum!

Quite honestly it is still too warm out for me to even pretend that jacket is warranted but you guys know how it is...
Went for a walk a little earlier this afternoon and said “hi” to a man I passed on the street, “nice outfit” he replied. Always nice to get a compliment from a stranger, I can only hope this jacket is a hit with the ladies as well.
