@Mizmazzle nice fit also.

[WithBongInHand]

@Mizmazzle Hell yeah man, looks great on you. I hope it gives you many years of service.

[Mizmazzle]

@twin thanks dude. Im super happy with the fit. Looks good with a tee and I can still fit a flannel under it too.

@WithBongInHand my plan is to wear it as my main jacket for as long as possible. Get it all buttery soft!

That looks great, the fit is really good.

Out of all my jackets, I reckon the Flat Head is the best made, it's also the one I'd keep if I was forced to only have one.

[Mizmazzle]

@NickD bro! I LOVE the leather on this beauty. Plus, it’s such a great weight. Substantial but also easy wearing. Compared to my bareback, this one is gonna mold like a dream I think.

@Mizmazzle That Jacket is bad ass

[Mizmazzle]

@Denimhead-0 gonna look killer with those 829s

Are there any thedi owners out there?
Considering splashing out on my first leather jacket on a type 3 rough out I saw on instagram.

[NickD]

I don't own any, but I know they get great reviews.

Sharing these shots from today in this topic too (shared them in the topic for Rainbow Country jackets) - so happy that leather jacket season is coming around…

I need to get a brown leather jacket as well - I've only ever owned blacks (I har a natural colored suede jacket once, though, but that was a bit of a disaster).

I have a slightly obsessive thing about matching, leather though - I really prefer that my belt, my shoes/boots and my watch strap (if leather) are of the same color. I'm trying to convince myself that a black leather jacket can be worn with blown boots and belt, though, but I do find it difficult. What du you guys do? Match or say feck it?

[NickD]

Sometimes I match, sometimes I say feck it.

@TeflonDon this is not necessary, you can properly wear black boots + belt + brown jacket, this is very fine.

If you overthink your style, it’ll show, and you’ll end up achieving the exact opposite of looking stylish. That’s basically the whole idea behind the Italian concept of sprezzatura: looking effortlessly elegant and stylish, as if you haven’t tried at all.

[TeflonDon]

@Neru-6 you’re absolutely right, of course. And I’m quite aware that I’m not entirely rational.

I’ll try to stick to matching the leather on belt, shoes and watch. And see if I can find a perfect brown (at least not black) leather jacket.

[NickD]

Freewheelers today. I love the fit of this.
