LW J24 or RMC J24-L - need thoughts

[Bfd70]

Oh thanks @ABCD that makes sense. My guess is that chrome tanned hides are more robust than vegetable tanned pieces, is that right? LW stresses that their jackets should be worn in rain, snow, blazing sunlight, etc - that the hides will only get better with age. Can this same amount of wear be expected out of a veg-tanned version?

I love the LW jackets i’ve owned but i would only use their ad copy for entertainment purposes.

@Bfd70 Stuart makes a nice jacket but that website borders on scary, it's a bit bananas.

my lost worlds jackets really do hold up in the rain, better than the chrome tanned FQHH from aero imo, so there is a difference even within chrome tanned leather

Aero's CXL is combination tanned (first chrome tanned, then vegetable tanned)
