@weftyarn what size did you get? looks great.

XXL, which is my regular UHF / shirt size with few exceptions where I go XL

@weftyarn Thanks! I never know on IH jackets if you are supposed to go with shirt sizing or go up because it's a jacket. I finally got the shirt sizing dialed in, but jackets I'm still uncertain.

To the long-time owners of this jacket: Does it stop squeaking?

[pechelman]

not sure ive ever noticed what I'd call squeaking

It definitely creaks in a very satisfying way.

@seawolf
My brown one still squeaking after many years. Not a big deal for me. Not at all.

[seawolf]

@pechelman Creaking is probably a better word!

@hajduk It's not a big deal, but when I first had the jacket, I wore it to a reading of a friend's new novel. I was sitting in the audience next to my wife, and it was creaking every time I breathed. Afterwards me and my wife were dying laughing because it was so quiet in that room, and all we could hear was a gentle, rhythmic creaking every time I inhaled or exhaled.

@seawolf Please tell me the novel had a similar storyline to the "Tell-Tale Heart"...

[seawolf]

@goosehd I had the same thought when I was writing that out! Unfortunately, I'm not friend's with Poe, but this is my friend Luke Dumas' book The Paleontologist https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Paleontologist/Luke-Dumas/9781668018262

It's a horror/thriller type of book, so when he was reading an excerpt, you could hear a pin drop in the room. And also the gentle sound of my creaking jacket.

@seawolf That story sounds great and I'm positive that your jacket only added to the ambience of the evening

Does anyone know who makes this jacket? The descriptions for several of the other leather jackets are very clear about where the jackets are made, but this one doesn't say. Is it Four Speed? Someplace else?
