I wore this gently used thrift store $25 find tonight. The cowhide is very soft and supple. It’s not a high end jacket but I like the style of it and it fits nic

Awesome look and fit without all the bulk of a B3, that's the way to go.

The gabardine THEDOROS uses is out of the box very thick stiff, thick and durable….that being said after about two months of daily wear it has softened up making it one of my more comfortable THEDI/AERO/lostworlds jacket I own. I can comfortably wear and be warm in this jack to about 10 degrees temp if it get much colder than that I am forced to wear my lostworld B3….next jacket I think will be an AERO ANJ4

Brand new Custom Simmons Bilt Cafe Racer.

Had it few about 2 years but only wore it for the first time and managed to break the zip.

Been trying to get in touch with Simmons Bilt but not had any response so far.

Any advice / help would be greatly appreciated.

I am based in Yorkshire, England.
King I grew up in Yorkshire, Hull, lived at Leeds also, been in Madrid though now 10 years haha nice jacket collection by the way

Great outfit. Just wondering about the jacket sizing, any chance of the measurements?. Do you recommend sizing sizing down for the lower hem on these?, although this one looks like a perfect fit. thanks
Hi, Thanks. This one was from the sale page so I am not sure if it was stock or custom. The P2P is in the 22" range (not quite 23") and the hem is in the 20" range. So a drop 4 ratio, not as aggressive as the cafe racers. One thing for sure is this type 3 jacket fit exact same as my Aeromarine in size 40, that was also a sale page find, but it was a "for photography" build, so I'd assume that one was fully stock.

Oh look, I'm out walking in the woods again. This time, in keeping with my determination that Everything Is For Everyday (because "why save the good stuff for later?" - Julia Roberts taught me that), I'm wearing my CE rated cross zip riding jacket from DXR. I've taken the armour inserts out and I'm wearing it for everyday things, and it turns out that with its long-sleeve thermal liner zipped in it's well warm.

Because it's specifically cut for riding, you can see it sits a little oddly when I'm standing up straight with shoulders back. But it settles nicely with my arms slightly in front.

I think this will all sort itself out with further wear once the shoulders relax more. Anyway.
