Thanks very much. I've always been a USN G-1 man but I admit I'm very tempted to obtain one of those. I don't think its cheap but assume you get what you pay for, and I do like the idea of it being pre-aged, prefering an old leather look to new. I understand that one of the pleasures in buying a new (looking) jacket is aging it oneself through wear, but that would take too long for me!

Yes, one of the reasons I got this one was the pre-aged look and the awesome grain of the hide. Normally I prefer un-patched jackets, but the leather patches on this one are awesome, also "old" looking.

It looks great, I am looking forward to many more pictures. If you get an opportunity to snap a picture in natural light that would be nice.
Do you wear the collar buttons snapped? I understand a lot of people try to mould the collars with the help of water - are you considering doing that?

73° outside still but decided to put on my star sportswear ELC to check out the ISS zooming past at 65° elevation at 17,150 miles per hour
I tracked it on my ISS tracker app and it took all of 30 seconds to get from Chicago to here at coast of South Carolina!
