@Joule:

Seriously. As if standing next to Billy Idol wasn’t enough to brag about, you gotta be wearing this jacket, too. Pfff.  [emoji1]

Can anyone share some pictures of their aging jacket? Would love to see developing patina. Thanks in advance.

@Max Power , that would be great, as some of the pics you’ve posted in the past have already show some great aging patterns!

I love that teacore brown showing through. Gorgeous! Thanks for the pics.

Here’s mine—just threw it on this morning in low light, so apologies for the grainy cellphone pics.

^ Thanks. Darn comfortable beyond expectation. Significant material but very pliable.

I was inspired by @Eisenherz  and @Chesson ’s pics today to wear my IHJ 35. Mine is the Self Edge variant, with side pockets but no side zips. Pimped with a GAH snap cap

Chesson’s cool pic with the new snow UHF got me thinking of something similar to wear under it. The closest I could get was my IHSH 91. An IH groundbreaking shirt…the first work shirt with snaps! I love it.

Last pic is to show that I have finally learned how to control my tripod mounted SLR from my phone…pick where it should focus....no more composing, firing, running and standing still in 10 seconds. You’ll have to bear with the ‘small print but forgot my reading glasses’ attitude from now on.

Great fit too

That looks fantastic and the fit is smack. The Good Art pimp is just the right amount of subtlety. How does the Good Art button install? Can you explain how that works?

I love this jacket more everyday.

Cheers!

Thanks for your comments @Powerband  I like my jackets a bit looser than many on the forum. I’ll take some pics this week with the jacket zipped up so you can better judge fit for yourself.

The snap caps are very easy. They just snap onto the male snaps which come installed in the jacket’s collar. There are two male snaps so you can use one for the cap and the other one when you close up the collar strap.

There are several snap cap designs…

Do it, this is a superb jacket.

A great look @motojobobo . I also have the same combo of SE jacket and Good Art snap cap. It is my wife’s favorite of all my leather jackets so I wear it often, lol.
