Seeing this, I don't know where your initial doubts came from. Great looking jacket, perfect!

Thanks a lot, Marc. Thankfully, I feel the same after spending time with this. Funny, isn’t it. It’s usually blowing hot and cold, not the other way round...
And YOU know how great that leather feels, smells, develops.

I agree on the Albert Richard jackets. They are high quality. This is similar to the label Thedi uses.

Thanks on the Vaccine! On my way.

They really have som special jackets from what I've seen. That collar is just crazy cool.
My girlfriend will have her second vaccine shot tomorrow, so then I can relax a little bit easier as she works in a nursing home with a lot of elderly people.

First wear of my newly acquired Himel Brothers Wolverine jacket. Got it here from a fellow TFL member. Super stoked - hope that I am able to pull this one off :D

Just want to echo @Tom71 here, looks great.

Zero impression that the jacket is wearing you, or any bad vibes.

If you hadn’t mentioned that you just got it, I’d have assumed you had this jacket for some time.

“Pulling it off” is quite the understatement. I think it looks spectacular on you.

Thanks guys! I appreciate it! Felt kind of "bold" buying the Wolverine but it sure is everything I hoped for. What an amazing spot this forum is for inspiration and well wishes. Cheers!

A little comparison, 2x Flat Head D Pocket jackets both size 42, black and brown

I'm a big fan of the contrast stitching. The black size 42 (22" chest, 26" back length) is noticeably larger than the brown 42 (21" chest 25" back length). The bi-swing design of the back makes these jackets easy to move in even with a smaller pit to pit like the brown one.

1st 4 pics are the black shinki tea core (1.5 years of wear).

Last 4 pics are the brown shinki (3.5 years of wear).

Man I love that pattern with the half belt and both look superb...but that brown one is off the charts!

Risking redundancy a bit so I won’t post any further until it’s either sunny or showing some wear/ break in. The snow definitely aided the sleeves but the body is still very much holding its own. I forgot just how tough CXL can be!

If you could wear electricity and not die, I suspect it would feel like this.

You just keep posting pics of this jacket, at least we'll know it's safe and where it should be and where it belongs. It's mega nice, really! You gotta take a photo of it on a sunny day, I just can't figure out what color exactly this is.

Still loving this, but I promise I will wear a different jacket in my next post...

And be cold? No way, stay in this one and keep posting pics of it. D-1 has always been my fav.
