I’ll shut up about it after this post. Got a good bit of light on the front porch to really showcase the Horween lux. TBH I’m not much of a huge teacore guy but I do find this to be really striking and beautiful. I think it’ll brown up quicker than the CXL overdye, which is truly more brown to begin with. Anyway, can’t say enough good things about this hide. Aside from Cordo and Midnight blue CXL, Horween Lux is a real gem to look at.

How is the pattern compared to aero? Looks more slim/tapered. Can you tell if the side panels are v shape or did they taper more off the back panel?

edit: jus asking as to a potential alteration to my black hwyman I had talked to dena about bringing in the body of that brown one u have. The side panels make it tricky. She had been thinking just take like an upside down v shape off the back panel each side.

Yeah man this is really just a CR with waist belts and a collar. Follows the V right from the pits. Fit is almost identical to my Aero or SB CR’s. The HWM keeps it more straight shot from the pits down until it hits that waist taper, if that makes sense. Here’s a good comparison shot of the back(s)

Gold Label Brooks CR today. Nice easy wearer but I still prefer my brown AMF Harley version. Chest pockets on the Brooks always nudge me as being slightly too low. That being said, any Brooks owners want to trade a Black CR for this Brown??

Mr. Raja sheepskin jacket (lol yeah, that's actually the brand name even tho it's made in Italy but it's got that home made custom vibe and it's genuinely is a brilliant jacket) x Aero 60's trousers x Harness boots.

So Aero makes a mean jacket but they make incredible leather trousers. Just got home from a pub, these are extremely comfortable despite being 11 lbs of CXL, they fit great, they're fun to wear and they're warm. Most important of all, I wasn't bored. And to think I actually paid more for IH denim jeans when I coulda had these all along but no, I was too chicken sh1t to wear what I wanted to wear.

today was an overcast with a feeling of green house humid warm here
This is turning out amazing. Great difference from the pale original color.
Thanks it was quite fast even when i dont wear it often due to #stay at home the whole 2020, i just hang it there outside my room in the shade facing my back garden day and night almost the whole time.
