      One thing that I'd (belatedly) suggest is swapping the Velcro on the cuff adjusters and collar with snaps, like on the overdyed M-65.

      I think that snaps would be more durable, and probably fit with a leather jacket better.

        I know.  For some reason, H really dislikes snaps on this type of jacket….

          velcro would be a practical advantage if your hands are cold(?)

            I fully agree with Graeme…and I only bought the overdyed M-65 BECAUSE it had snaps. Losing the velcro tipped me over.

            The journey is the objective.

                same. I bought the ihm-20 because of the snaps and because it was overdyed. not saying velco has disadvantages but the ihm-20 had the bells and whistles that tipped me over

                  Hey @Giles , have you gotten any samples of the leather with the shine taken down yet? I'm curious to see what that will look like.
