This jacket checks a lot of boxes for me... quickly becoming a fav.

Fits you really great, I can see why it'd be your fav.

Just realized I haven't seen rain in months. No wonder we're having so many earthquakes here lately, the ground must've all turned to sand and dust.

I would happily send you my share of rain.

This shot from today's Good Friday Harley ride to the current COVID-19 "outer limit of travel"
Jacket a yellow Levi trucker , ebay purchase from the UK last year. Unlined and "cool".
27C when we got underway at 9am , 33C on the way home . (37 forecast for tomorrow !)
The rest of Australia has 20's and rain today. This jacket was PERFECT for today's temperatures.
Photo taken at the Yanchep lagoon , a good snorkelling spot. Lifeguards on duty below the shot.

WA is awesome, I spent 2 years at Perth and made some friends like Hal Harvey (Rip Hal) from blue water, went on a fishing and abalone hunting trip with the guys from Halco.
Man I miss that part of the world but the travel ban has put paid to a lot of my fishing plans. Hope you guys stay safe there.

Here's something you don't see every day... A Chevignon Highwayman-style jacket from the 70's that I picked up for 50 quid. Heavy aniline-dyed cowhide in olive.

I still only wear vest, i need actual respirator, this cotton mask i cant breathe properly under it once it gets wet of water vapor from breathing. it doesnt seal and today when i spray ants i can smell the insecticide through it so i think when someone sneezes the particles would also go through it.... agh i will wear respirator then probably then cover the respirator with this to look more civil

It is perfect. Beautiful design. Reminds me of the Freewheelers CR - the hem below the end of the front zipper is supposed to be several inches lower than other CR designs. A great, old-timey design.

Thanks Monitor, Carlos and Will. Really appreciate your opinion and also, of course, the kind words.
I will concur then and not do anything to the length.

Real nice Boyo.

I've been wanting a shawl collar since selling a Thedi that did not really fit at all plus I wanted something more robust. I did like the slim fit and that was about it.

How does the LW fit? Is it a boxy fit like a lot of the shawl collars available?

 

[Will Zach]

I like this jacket as well. A lot. More info appreciated. Weight, fit, anything else you can tell us.

The jacket feels great on.. the weight and stiffness of the leather disappears when worn.. Ive only had it a few weeks... this one was courtesy of casechoppers recent weight loss, so he did most of the break in to date. I love the jacket length the shawl collar and the button front.. typical LW quality and it has a unique purple liner which i like as well.
