      You know.  I could put gussets in, but the whole arm has now been designed for no gussets….And I'm not going to do another round of sampling.....

        @Cole I think you could learn to live without the gussets  😉

          Wow … killer jackets! (esp. the red one)

          +1 :  The shorter length looks better

            I, on the contrary, love the slightly longer length.  l especially love the natural Essex.  You and I are similarly sized, Giles.
            And you say you don't intend to keep all three.  Hmmm…

              They are all (imo) absolutely fantastic.  I know the red is a little loud, but for trips to Japan, it'll be deemed subtle, when it is on my back on the back of the SR500 it'll look amazing and when it picks up creases, greases and dirt, it'll look a $million…..

                Just out of curiosity, why do these two have black lining, rather than red, like the first jacket?  Just an aesthetic decision?  I prefer the red, though I concede it might be a bit much with the red leather (despite what @gbougard might think 🙂 ).

                  The natural Essex actually has Olive Drab Ventile lining…... @Axel is taking decent pics at the mo.  I really did not want a clash of reds and so thought black was safer…...

                    That Essex is going to age beautifully.

                      Ah, now that you've told me that, I can see it's olive.  That's a good color, too.  Black linings are a bit boring, IMO.

                        ^ I agree, but I thought the red goat was already unboring enough…..

                                Thank you to whoever bought the natural. The voices in my head were telling me to buy it.

                                  Same here.

                                  I PM'ed Giles about it minutes before it sold.  He reassured me that I did not want to buy it. 😃

                                      The natural is superb. They are all red hot.

                                        Black remains the best. IMHO.
