Sundown you better take care if I find you been creepn round my back stairs. Awesome jacket man. Are these the best or what!??? Lightfoot stub?!?? How f’ing cool is that. This is what this **** is all about.!!

You know it man, just look at my ****-eating grin.

Perfect length, perfect trucker pattern, solid suede, great color - all for not a lot of dough.

Probably a better fit for the TFL I originally joined 17 years ago than now, but still.

I bought it from the First owner. He bought it from (he said 'Star leather') in 81 for The Job. Maybe Cal hadn't put the sign up yet over the old one....

He did four years hard work and so did his leather. It needs a bit of a seam MOT, a good bath and a condition (not sure if that is the correct order @Marc mndt ?)

The badge went and a different type replaced it, have to see how that goes........

Fit is exactly as the Stealth Cal however it's a heavier hide. WIP

Out travelling for a bit - missing my Fourspeed x-zip but I know I made the right choice by taking this Blackmeans x RISK jacket made from (super-soft) cowhide instead. Easily one of the most comfortable and versatile leather jackets I own (wish the body was shorter though).

Replaced the jacket buttons.
The old ones were ok, but I'm not a fan of antique brass. So it was clear that I had to do something about them.
I chose these buttons because they looked the best in real life. The others were too decorative.
Anyway, now I think the jacket is even cooler.
By the way... they are not rivet buttons, but ones that can be sewn on.
