So I took the plunge.

Awesome pickup!

Can't wait to see how you rock it!

[Max Power]

Thanks. I'm really looking Forward to it as the measurements suggest it could have been tailored to my measurements, at least compared to my UHF size.

This is a piece that has plagued my dreams for a while… I just don't know how much wear black leather would get in my lineup.

[Max Power]

That's the Thing. I love leather jackets and always wanted to have a horse hide jacket. But mostly they made me look too bulky or at least I thought so.It definitely took me a while to get used to my Schott but now it's my favourite piece of clothing - until now probably.

The UPS note says the parcel weighs only 0,5 Kg. :o

I can't wait to see that piece, too. Feels like Christmas did when I was a kid.

We have defaulted our UPS shipping system to 0.5KG.  UPS re-weigh every parcel and charge us the actual weight or volumetric weight (whichever is the higher) anyway…

[Max Power]

That's a relief

And the smell of the leather, hmmmmm

[Max Power]

That's a plus too. Do you have any Evolution or aging going on on yours yet?

There is some brown peaking through on mine near the zipper and the bottom of the cuffs.  But that's it.

[Max Power]

Cool. Would love to see Pictures!

[Signal11]

Only some squashed bugs on mine…

@Max Power You're gonna love this thing! Its so versatile. You can dress it down with jeans or dress it up with trousers.

I agree with @DrPat that it is not terribly warm, but I have found that you if you layer (UFH and/or hoodie and/or outer vest) it can definitely hold its own in the winter months…
