I think we should call these "trucker racer" jackets!
I like it a lot, very good photos too.

Thanks! I finally have a new phone that's actually capable of taking half decent photos. Trucker Racer sounds about right. TR!

One new jacket coming
Just ordered a new jacket from local store

I finally pulled the trigger on a Thunderbay, after two years of will I won't I, I finally did (it was probably inevitable). It'll be in black goatskin which natural shearling. Hopefully it'll get here soon, even though I can't wear it outdoors for a while yet.

Perfect pick-up truck jacket, especially if the heater isn't too great

Congrats man. I know that one has been on your mind for awhile. Great choice.

Hide?

My all time favorite CR and finally found one in my size, in great used condition that didn’t break the bank!

Real nice and not ordinary. Please let us know what you think once it arrives.

Okay so it finally came in! It's got nice and sturdy, heavy leather. Think it was worn pretty lightly because it's stiff in a few places but nothing a little wear won't fix. A little more trim around the waist than I would like but the shorter than average sleeves are almost the perfect length for me, so I guess I'll just have to lose weight!

Currently rubbing it down with conditioner because the leather is a touch dry.

Badalassi

Without Badalassi, I would not have considered Aero. This is nothing against Aero, but I do not like CXL and I have seen many and handled several Vicenza jackets and I prefer Shinki by such a wide margin that Aero was always in this unique category of "on my radar if they get the right leather."

Badalassi was a leather that I wanted a jacket made from ever since I first saw a jacket made from the hide. Once Aero got that leather it was only a matter of time before I ordered something from them.

With boots, I go for craftsmanship above everything else. With leather jackets, the leather itself plays a vastly more important role in comparison to boots.

Shinki is my favorite horsehide as well. I wish Aero offered it! I've never handled a jacket in Badalassi. I look forward to your review!

Can't remember who had a Hooch Hauler made from Badalassi earlier this year...

Yes, I think I remember that one. Two-toned, I believe.

Yeah! That's the one I'm thinking of.

Found it.

Looks like my Chips jacket is moving from Aero to TB.

Can’t wait to hear your thoughts although I suspect I know what they will be. Enjoy the remaining few days of bittersweet anticipation. They last forever and somehow not long enough. LOL.

I’m really looking forward to seeing this one J!
It will be a nice alternative to your LW CHP (not to mention the 2 dozen pristine Cal leathers you have on hand...).

Really nice Walter Dyer perfecto-style biker jacket:
