Hello , really nice !!! Is that HH ? Goatskin ? I'm in discussion with JC and I'm about to choose the kind of leather for the A2 I want ( possibly RW 42-1401-P ) and the GW Bronco goatskin led me to revise my judgment and my choice about the choice of leather that would have been HH but now goatskin tends to get my favores . The dark brown on goat is fabulous with the grain . Bogen are all goatskin ?

My two cents: variety is the spice of life. You know you like the easy drape of your goatskin jacket, so maybe explore a Horween HH, which will be similarly easy-wearing.

Yes , that's the feeling I had when reading and watching the posts of @Saint-ex and @coolhandluke who have both jackets from the same Horween HH . The leather subject i'n't closed with JC ;) . Thanks Jan

It's cold in Paris today, so I put away the Dubow and took out the B-10. I'm not sure if I'll keep this one. It's really warm and comfortable, but I don't think it looks great on me.

Maybe you feel a lttle stuck in , with a too heavy sweater ? Like me you are not a thin guy so this kind of jacket makes me feel like I was oversized. My feeling . But you are tall and "barraqué " , perso je trouve que ça passe bien ;)

Thanks!

Yes, Bogen & Tenenbaum made AN-6552s (AN-J-3As). They were all goatskin as far as I know. Not sure if this particular goat type is still offered by John. Not sure what kind it is, but it has a finish with some lighter brown undertones.

I’m a bit upset though, this is one of them that I can tell is starting to get a little tight around my midsection. Guess I should hit the gym!
