LW Lee 101 HH jacket on Ebay -

[majormajor]

I was only thinking the other day (as I put my old 101 denim jacket on) that a leather one would be nice.

And blow me, here is one - far too small for me - I must've missed the fact that LW were making these. Doh!!:eeek:

And blow me

For anyone who might be unsure what the major means here, this is idiomatic - used as an exclamation of surprise. It comes (I believe) from the idiom 'blow me down with a feather'

I saw that jacket too and liked it, but it's so short

My ideal jean jacket would be a cross between this:

and this:

The great thing about my old Levi Cowhide, back in the 60's, was the fact that it was unlined, so felt much like a jean jacket to wear. Also, and again for a minimalist feel, none of the seams were turned over - just flat hide - so a really easy jacket to wear, and worn in, it looked very cool.

My Levi Cowhide was pretty much the colour of the yellow suede (but with a leather collar), but I dislike the "Levi V" design of jacket nowadays (just too ubiquitous, I guess), so make me a yellow steerhide Lee 101 with unturned seams - I'll be your friend forever!!

I'm afraid that last comment of unmanly gratitude will see you barred by LW.

Here's a pic of an old Levi's Cowhide. The unturned seams on the pocket and flaps are, hopefully, clear. Very cool, IMHO. Why modern companies complicate them so is beyond me:eeek:
