Ah I can imagine that will look the business. Does it form nice rolls and creases on the sleeves?

I'm thinking of a wayfarer or plainsman (or maybe Type iii lol) in black jerky, but I do need me some sleeve rolls in a jacket. I miss that from my CXL HB. I don't see any examples or jerky doing that really.

If I'm paying for the mark up I might go straight for badalassi over vic. Sorry to drag you into my obsessing haha.

Glad you're enjoying your plainsman!
Go for the Badalassi, but it'll squeak. Vicenza rolls nicely.

Here's what sleeve creases look like on a type 3 in jerky.

That really does make a very pretty picture. There's still very little of the base showing through which i like actually.

I agree with you @MrProper .

I think it's either a plainsman/wayfarer in badassalassi or a type iii in jerky. That is a big price difference between the options but I think I might just wear something with the extra length a lot more. I really like the rolls and creases on vic but it looks a bit flat in black. Badalassi had that trasnlucent depth i loved in brown CXL.

I don't love the squeak but I live with it in my other leathers.
