It's cordovan, it turns to cherry under direct sunlight.

My jealousy meter is pegged at 11LW J23 again
Thank you all for the wishes and the music! It’s a really special time and it’s beautiful to be home for it. This is what I look like when we’re going for a walk nowadays, sadly none of my jacket fits me like that:
How wonderful. You are blessed.

Sh*t!! I always thought my j23 could be heavier!
My Aero HB was 10.70lbs boxed. I can't imagine a heavier jacket. I'll know for sure soon enough!

True, I imagine anything over 9 lbs would be little difficult to wear.

Scored this at my local thrift. $15. I love this fabric, which I believe is wool twill? Lined in cotton. Two inner pockets, side adjusters, and such a lovely stiffness of drape and feel. This material would be perfect for a half belt. Is this akin to gabardine I wonder? Or whipcord? In @dudewhattheheck 's interview Ken mentioned a gabardine sheepskin lined jacket which now really picques my interest.
A beautiful trade indeed. This LW has a ways to go for break-in. @AeroFan_07 will be facing the same task! Couldn't be happier to get this jacket back on my back! I think I've finally realized these m/c styles just make me happier than others.

Now that's a great fit! It looks identical to your j106, imagine if you kept j106 and now you have both LWj23 and J106......
LOL. You know I think I actually like Stu's pattern better. Larger lapels and collar. Little details like the pillion pockets and the cuff stitching. Massive front zip. Little bit more true to the original pattern. This is some beastly ass HH for sure. We are twining today, high five brother!

Ton which jacket did you trade for? The steer hb? I also like this one more than your j106 actually, it really fits you to the hilt.
Yep. The heaviest jacket I've ever owned. It slightly out weighs even this behemoth. @AeroFan_07 is in for a treat!

It’s weird because I don’t really know you but I often imagine you having like a family reunion of your bootlegger v2, the j106, your black cafe racer and the brown hb and just retiring entirely from the game in perpetuity with an a-team of jackets.
