IHJ-64-BLK - Horsehide Modified Type III Jacket - Black (Tea-Core Dyed)

@Transporter Thanks, that temperature ranges you mentioned speak to me. I wear jackets even on hotter days because I do like to have pockets for shit I carry so that is a real consideration for me.

[Transporter]

@DeeDee85 Glad it can help or at least share my experience so far. These jackets are freakin’ expensive and best to know what we’re in for before our wives figure out how much we actually paid.

[Transporter]

@init616 Yep, same here. I totally dig the interior pockets on both sides and the stealth carry of wallet, phone, and firearm. Pretty impressed with the leather comfort in the range from cold to reasonably moderate weather so far. Kicks ass in the rain too.

@Transporter thanks again! I’m hoping to make it down to Gosport at some point this year to try one on in person, I’m somewhere between the measurements for XL and XXL.

Me likey

[Transporter]

@DeeDee85 I had that same size conundrum between XL and XXL, since the size chart shows they are really close in most dimensions. I couldn't try one on in my area and went with the XL. With those long arm dimensions in both XL and XXL, I was planning to remove the tight cuffs anyway to wear my watches and tailor the sleeves shorter to better fit my arm length. Worked great for my needs.

@Transporter looks so nice mate I need to start wearing mine had it for about 2 years and only worn it a few times.
love the honeycombs in the sleeves look set already..

[Transporter]

@Jcaz6996 Thanks, mate. Only worn a few times? You hiding it from your wife? Good catch on the honeycombing--you are totally right on how that comes out with wear. I've always dug that Shinki horsehide in boots that have that honeycomb texture.

[Molle]

@Transporter Love the SLGC001!!

[Transporter]

@Molle Yessir! Another GS guy! Thanks, Brother. I dig everything about the Tentagraph. Seems to be my go-to watch more than others in the rotation these days. Wears so well, and endlessly interesting perfection in the details. Just have to stop checking out the Mt. Iwate dial in the sun when I drive so I don't end up in a collision.

I altered the sleeves and removed the cuffs of this J-64 jacket, specifically to accommodate the watches. Works great!
