Aaaaaaaaaahhh I am the happiest man on earth! Today my Gold Digger Type 2 in Olive arrived from Japan!!! It is such a beauty and the size is perfect for me! It feels so good to wear it and it is less stiff than I thought.

Looks great on you @Marc2706 !
Fantastic DH model that I've also been eyeing for years... Enjoy wearing it!

Can I get a fit check on this Gold Digger. Been eyeing it for ages but couldn’t decide on the size. Went with a 42 here and I gotta say, it’s roomy but I don’t think I’d be able to even move in a 40. Here are some quick and dirty photos, happy to hear some thoughts!

[mecken88]

@BalticBob me personally think it looks great, it will shape and form more to your body after some consistent wear.
Some horsehide can have the feeling of “shrinking” because of the folds, creases and shaping to the body. So going too small to begin with is usually not the way to go with heavier quality leather jackets.
Just from my experience Looks great, and will just continue to look better with time!

@mecken88 Thanks! I wore it this afternoon and it's super comfy. This leather is really nice right out the box compared to the horse hide on the Y'2 I have. That was really stiff at first!
