True. But for some reason I don't wear mine too often. Maybe that's because mine is very impractical since it only has one pocket, which is the chest pocket. Can't leave my keys anywhere. Also, I like to be able to put my hands somewhere. Therefore I prefer jackets with handwarmer pockets without zippers. But I digress...
CR are nice but I don't think one will ever become my 'grab and go' jacket.

MN. I'm occasionally tempted by a board racer, but I so rarely wear anything without a collar, and I don't much like how a cafe racer looks over a collared shirt. I had a CR years ago which I bought to wear to the office as it was a bit less 'showy' than a Brando-type. Looked less like I was trying to make some sort of statement.... In the end I sold it on because I didn't think it worked with enough of my wardrobe. The HWM and halfbelt styles do it far better for me now.

It’s more than that. The cut is wrong, it’s missing the sleeve zips, the leather looks too prissy, or the coin pocket is too straight. Somehow it totally lacks the “cool” of an IR. More like a Zara copy of the Fidelity version.

Agree. Not appealing to me at all. However, the sleeve zips are there. The Aero one looks much much better.

...not on top where they belong. :p
They posted the one they copied from and I am not sure the sleeves zip are on top of that one. I think the seams are on the outside and zips are facing inside on that original.

I quite like the Indian Ranger and would love to see someone other than Aero making a copy of it. This Trophy one is a disappointment.

Many thanks. It was exactly that. The freewheelers seems to be sold out everywhere. Probably it wouldn't fit me off the rack anyway.
Reminds me a little of my 25 year old vest. Unfortunately too short and not lined.

Looks like Fardinse has some in stock. https://www.whitefeathermfg.com/produkt/freewheelers-winter-aviators-vest/

You didn't have to look too far. Whitefeather is just around the corner:)

Edit: false alarm, only size 40
