Should fit similar to that yes, maybe not as narrow over the shoulders or as high arm holes as the Herc if I remember correctly.
Also I like the shorter body length of the DH, I always thought the Hercules was a tad bit to long in the body for it to be perfect, but that's just nitpicking lol, in the end both are very very nice jackets :)

Sounds perfect and I agree.

Here’s my Lost World’s horsehide jeans jacket that I purchased from another forum member. Beautiful jacket, perfect fit!

Very new Lewis Leathers Corsair in veg-tan cow.
What a hide!

I will cross-posted with additional info how I came to that beauty in the mighty “LL veg-tan cow” thread as this option has seen some scrutiny due to the hefty mark-up.

Very nice. I was in London two years ago and went to the Lewis leathers store just for fun. Tried on some Jackets and actually liked them even better than I expected. Though I didn’t come away with one…

Shout out to this Bronson M-421a summer flight jacket.

I wanted a driving jacket for this summer and I have definitely found it. This one was new but discounted on eBay, but I would definitely say it's worth the full price from the Bronson web site.

At 90f degrees, I can comfortably wear this with a t-shirt and long-sleeve cotton work shirt (as shown in the photos). With just a t-shirt, I could probably stay comfortable for a few degrees more. It is loads cooler than my jeans.

But I mostly bought it to drive in to keep the sun off my skin through the truck windows, so it's not really a working jacket (I won't be out securing loads in it).

Excellent quality with a big inner pocket for the cell phone, full range of motion in the arms, easy to wash and it feels like it can take a beating.

I am home for a few days, nice to have a chance to catch up on the jacket parade.

Happy Sunday all.

Very Nice! Great color, ideal fit and well styled. Your variable disguises seem rather spontaneous as some postings are You while others are not.
Thanks! Yeah, if I wear sunglasses it kinda works as a semi disguise otherwise I try to "hide" my identity,.
I've gotten more and more comfortable not masking myself but sometimes it still feels "off" not to haha, hopefully this explains it a bit :)
