My grail piece arrived today and did not disappoint. Mint condition, Cali made Herc. Everything is spot on perfect. As good as old clothes get. This is the jacket I have wanted since receiving the first one in 2018. In over 20 years of collecting, buying, selling, winning and losing….this is the absolute cherry for me. It negates all the complaints I’ve had about vintage lengths…this is the vintage jacket I’ve always wanted.

Appreciate for warm gesture. I will walk thru path though. My moto is no pain no gain, I will enjoy the journey and the greater appreciation would be by the time I reach the goal.If you really want to soften it up, take a bath while wearing it. Sounds weird, but it works.

The jacket is inspired by a type 1 jacket, I guess, if that's what you're asking, but it doesn't have a back buckle and is probably not as boxy as the original type 1's.From Type 1 trucker?
