Re: Show us your US Wings goatskin jackets
Looking good Bruce. Are you happy with the jacket, what's your opinion after some time? I really like it. You can't beat the price.

Re: Show us your US Wings goatskin jackets
Looks good Bruce, hows the weight of the leather? Looks sturdy. It's a pretty lightweight jacket. I live in Florida and I can imagine wearing this in any hoodie/light jacket weather. I've been wearing it around my house with inside temps in the low 70s. It's actually strange to me, a little, to hav...

Re: Show us your US Wings goatskin jackets
I ordered the imported goatskin from US Wings and it was supposed to be delivered by FedEx sometime today. I had to leave the house for 30 minutes and of course that's when FedEx came by. The package requires a signature, so now I have to hope for Monday.
