      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.

      In search of:
      IHV-04, med.
      IHSH-185, large
      IHSH-186, large (khaki, and green)

        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.

                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…

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

                                  @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…

                                  You won’t be satisfied until you wear Iron Heart.

                                    Great, thanks a lot @DrPat and @Dstauffer . The aged leather looks amazing, way better than i thought. This would have me pushed over. Also i like how its not super warm as my schott and ihm15 do that job. But we have a lot rainy inbetween warm and cold days here in hamburg and this will be perfect for the jacket.

                                      So here it is and im blown away. Will take the weekend to do a full review and better pictures, these dont do it justice. But for now let me say I love that jacket. The wife likes it too, in fact thats what she's yelling to me from the steeet below.
