Have been wearing this around the house for short periods of time, the weather makes it to hot for longer adventures just yet.

I would like to know how you guys have this jacket set up regarding the leather ”pull-tabs”. I’ve seen @weftyarn removing his eventually.

I removed all but the top main zipper now, not really sure how I want it yet. Would really appreciate your take on it!

I leave them on because they are easier to use with gloves.

@Sunnergren it’s down to personal preference. On my 129 I find they do help with functionality but the sleeve ones tended to get into stuff they shouldn’t so I removed them (I think there’s a difference between patina and an archive of everything I’ve ever eaten while wearing the jacket). If you change your mind it’s easy to add them back on.

I took my off the sleeves and sides but left the ones on the zippers. The ones I took off I stored in the front chest pockets.

Horse out tonight, met the gang, got no less than 5 compliments, no kidding.

That's a fit.......

@Sunnergren personal preference and depends on how often you wear gloves. I feel the tags cheapen the look of garments so always remove them. I don’t ride and very rarely wear gloves though.
