        Heads up - after 12 years of pretty static prices and in fact a couple of price reductions, we are having to increase the price of many of our items.  We'll be doing this late July.  This jacket is one of the items that will be affected

          You're doing that on purpose right? Looking at the measurements I know I would love that jacket. 😢

            Didn't you have to raise prices after the spike in cotton prices in 2011?  I think silver spiked around the same time.  I guess the reductions undid those increases though.

                Yep, I can give you heads up and tell you that you have until last July to buy at this price.  Or I don't and then you risk paying more for the same thing…

                  How heavy and warm would you rate this leather and how soft do you think i can get?

                    The leather is about 1.2mm thick.

                    The other two questions are a little subjective.

                      Thanks. Yes, that's true. I figure it's not as heavy as FQHH, just thinking weather it will be a jacket for moderate temperatures (October) or rather cold months. It's really tempting.

                        It's not very warm.  It's thin leather and a thin lining.  I would wear it between 7 and 20 deg, with a thicker base layer when cold and t shirt when warm.

                            It's not stiff like a FQHH Aero jacket.  But it's not soft like goat skin either.  It hasn't softened up too much in the 1.5 years I've had it.

                                Ah, I'm getting old obviously. Thanks a lot for the replies. I actually could use a jacket in that temperature range. But how to tell the wife? I need a strategy here…and might have to sell some items.

                                        I agree with the 7 to 20 deg.
                                        Below 7 the N1 and above 20 no jacket.
                                        It is a great jacket. You won't regret it if you play your cards right. 😉

                                        Having no destination, I’m never lost.
