Southern hemisphere "winter" powers on. 6c start. To reach 17C by 3pm. Sou'/ Sou' west squalls all day.
Certainly the weather for the Schott 740N steerhide Pea jacket.
Shot taken at Trigg surf beach , no surfers today (too rough).
The next squall behind me on the horizon.

About the same temperature here today in our summer. You’ll find me in a T-shirt and denim jacket

Yes I hear you mate. I have been out of the Northern hemisphere coming 30 years and could not now cope with the temperature conditions. My wife and I discuss moving within Australia to "avoid" the future winters once we are retired.
Far north Queensland has it's allure (Cyclones and humidity aside....)

You are right, out of the Cals I have owned, only this one is perfect. I never will part with it. At some point I will reline it, though I am am not sure with what.
About when was this made, do you know? It looks like its in too good of shape from the era I picture in my mind, but has that look. In any case its freaking perfect for that style. Wouldnt change a thing.

My guess is late 50s. Most of my other ones were 60s, when/where you see a different leather and different pulls. Also, I asked Gwen to date a straight-zip Cal I owned with the same leather-- she estimated early Cal, 50s. This one is in perfect shape, though the main zip was replaced. The seller knew what he had and it cost me lol.
Thats what I thought but didnt want to say it aloud in case I was wrong haha. But also as I indicated their was a voice in my head saying it was too perfect to be that old. WOW!

half
belt aero blue label. Lately, I've been thinking that it's too short for me. what do you guys say to that?
For this style and paired with those pants I agree that it looks too short. Try pairing it with high rise trousers and it will look just fine imo.
