      Solid fit @popvulture and I dig the jacket (yours too @theorocks )–if I were to buy a leather jacket anytime soon it would be that style, single-breasted and sort of cafe racerish in the body but with lapels. It takes some of the motorcycle-ness out of it.

      Long been an admirer of the Cassady shirt. The namesake is such an interesting figure who lived a remarkable life and they did a great tribute to him with that shirt.

      Think it, be it.

          @henry_david thanks so much man!!! Yeah the jacket is really killer, can't wait to get some character on it. I've got a Perfecto that I love, but I wanted another leather jacket for a little more toned down option.

                lolol digging deep in the archives for that article, @popvulture  😃 I love classic Onion (my fave of all time: https://www.theonion.com/temp-hides-fun-fulfilling-life-from-rest-of-office-1819566599).

                I wish I were a leather jacket person, but I don't think that I am (or at least my wife tells me that I'm not  :'().

                @theorocks, on the other hand, is most decidedly a leather jacket person. I like those button cuffs more than an elasticized cuff. I missed that detail on @popvulture's jacket, but I see that you both have the same EPIC jacket. Looking good.

                    Ha! People ask me why I wear Iron Heart and a sterling silver motorcycle chain if I don't ride. I always tell them because IH is high qual and that's it.

                      @mclaincausey missed your post earlier — thanks man! And yeah I feel like the non-motorcycleiness of it is kinda what I was going for, really feel like sometimes I don't wanna roll into a place looking like a Ramone (but then again, sometimes I do). And the Cassady shirt is for sure a great one — I've owned several and highly recommend em.

                      And @henry_david hahaha hell yes, that is fucking amazing… also is that TYONDAI BRAXTON FROM BATTLES?. I think The Onion is pulling some mega meta shit with that one.

                      @theorocks see, yours is really starting to get there! I need those arm wrinkles, man! I'd better up my at-home air-conditioned wearing habits, stat.

                        Hey–you are an avid cyclist @henry_david , not for nuthin the chain helps there. Though in my chain wallet days I wore it irrespective of biking.

                        I did used to rock the old Ramones style double breasted Harley jacket and you make a valid point about how dope those are @popvulture I can't help but feel a little poseurish if I'm too motorcycly. Like tattoos, I admire motorcycles from afar. Commitment issues keep me from one, and my wife from both.

                        Think it, be it.

                              I’m a huge fan of the old Abercrombie/ Omersa animals and want to someday order an animal ottoman, but until then this little guy from The Real Mccoys will suffice. Hand made, Shinki horsehide, and def heirloom quality. I bought it to give it to Amelia but I might keep it for myself  🙂

                                Hey guys, I just got a new Cooper Horsehide jacket - looks awesome, but feels pretty snug on my chest over a t-shirt and UHF  (normal winter bike riding top)

                                Can I expect this to loosen or break-in a bit over time or is HH too stubborn?

                                Any help would be much appreciated

                                  Truth is, that horsehide isn't going to stretch much.  That's not my experience.  If it feels too tight, it's not going to get appreciably looser with wear.  That said, they are kinda'suppposta' fit snug, quite snug.  Unless you want the layering.

                                      @profdbrk - thanks for the reply, I'd say it probably snug rather than tight today, I think it will be okay.

                                      @theorocks - thanks for the reply

                                        Real McCoy military shirt in "natural".  I sized up to a large on it, should get a chance to wear it next day or so, feels like a thermal on steroids

                                          Didn't manage to grab a fit pick, but the quality of the fabric is pretty awesome.  Different knit then a traditional waffle, ends up a little heavier and less stretchy on the hand feel
