@Max:
I'm no expert in leather jackets but think it looks rather big in the body, shoulder and the arms are pretty long.Might just be the stiffness of an unbroken leather but I'd like to see it sized down one.
Yes, I am thinking I need to try one size lower to see how it fits, thanks 
It was really good to meet all of you this time as well
Thanks for organising such a nice event!!
It was indeed a really good event!! Thanks to the IH crew for organising it and it was a lot of fun to meet with all of you
I would have to agree with the article, just wear what you want to wear… This one of the rare occasions where I am actually following my own advice 
I've heard that it's a great place to visit. In fact, somewhere in this thread, I posted a link showing a bit of the Bond barn. As for whether it's worth the five hour round trip through some of the more bleak landscape that Arizona has to offer, I can't say…
Thanks, will see if that trip gets confirmed and how it goes
Wild only starts to describe
Which one is your favourite… and would you wear it? 
I'd probably go for that crazy python one
Yep, Paul Bond makes quality boots. Bond himself was something of a legend; he started making boots while he was working as a professional rodeo cowboy and just kept doing it. He went in to work most every day up into his 80s. I'm not familiar with who's been running things since his death in 2012, though.
Thanks for the info, might be in Phoenix in a few months, so just wondering if it's worth visiting his shop, it's over two hours and half drive.
He said on my 60th, he's going to send it to me with ^UK inserted before Boss…..
That's a great idea!
Would have loved to be there!
And he did rock that killer vest! Happy Birthday
