Those cuffstraps are so great!
Only the coolest jacket model ever produced. Aero grizzly in seal Vicenza and dark brown mutton.

After shuffling around the house for a couple of weeks like a sad-faced ghost, with my busted arm mostly immobile and unable (and un-needing) to wear a jacket, yesterday I took a brief walk around the village with my son to get some fresh air.
I wore the Barbour International I was wearing on the day I had my off (it seemed fitting!), and was pretty pleased to see how it had survived the impact and slide mostly unscathed. Just a small hole worn through the sleeve where we went down, which I'm sure Barbour could invisible-ise if I asked them nicely.
No fit pic, because arm movement is still pretty awkward, but here it is draped over Manuel, my eBay mannequin:
Edit: oh, and in case it occurs to you that of course I'm all broken if I was relying on just a Barbour jacket for riding; I was wearing that as a top layer over a fully Kevlar lined shirt jacket, fitted with full Revit SeeSmart armour.

@barnabus glad you're not busted up beyond what you already suffered. From the tone of your post you sound (very understandably) down - hope I'm reading too much into it - but you can bet we're all cheering for you to heal as good as new and be back to your old self again soon.

Thanks Benny. I'm actually in pretty good form now and a much more positive mood, happy to be noticeably healing up and seeing improvement even from one day to the next.
I admit I was fed up immediately after the accident. Those days in the hospital I was in a pretty grim mood, a lot of pain and unable to do much at all due to immobility, being wired up to IV pain relief, and with a drainage tube inserted between my (broken) ribs into my chest, to drain the fluid from the collapsed lung into a bucket I had to have beside me all the time.
Horrible. But I was lucky to get away as lightly scathed as I did, and I'm mending much quicker than I even dared too hope.
Sorry if I came across gloomy in my post! I'm way past that now and feeling much happier.
