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

@Max:
You're pushing it eh?
Seriously, thank you. Do you own one personally?
I have the Self Edge version. You even commented on one of the pics I posted

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.

And by amazing present you think a child would count?

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. -
Thanks for the Affirmation. Just Need somebody to buy my stuff in the sales thread then.

"Hey, look what I've bought. I thought I owed it to myself after the AMAZING present I gave you recently.
I think you'd agree, that it is more than fair"…...

So I took the plunge.

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.

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
