and it is wonderfull...
I really love this hide..allthough it is a little thick for summer wear...but it is perfect for the colder weather.
like in the picture below..it was really bad weather today and I grabbed my LC HH and glad I did..it was wild out there today,thunder,lightning you name it.....BTW my grandfather was almost struck by lightning today..25'' away from his feet...it blew his umbrella out of his hand
I am glad his still alive..
here is how it looks like after a month of wearing it now..
the shine has come of and the hide relxes so much more.
remember it stll up for grabs if you want it..

Up for grabs? If I had a jacket that fit me as well as that jacket fits you, I wouldn't let it out of my sight! I'm hoping my Wested will one day attain such distinction, but I have to break it in first; Southern California summers and leather jackets don't go together.
I'm also pleased to hear your Grandfather is okay; 25" isn't much of a safety margin, but apparently it was enough.

Hey Holt, I have to agree with Zombie Jones here. I see a perfectly fitting Jacket that is the best LC design I have ever seen! Slap yourself and look at that pic you posted, I'm too far away to do it!
Don't let that one go! It's perfect!

Holt... no one fits a jacket like you do. Best LC anyone has seen for some time.

Holt I agree with everyone else this jacket fits you perfectly, and you fit the jacket just as perfectly. Why would you want to get rid of it?

I want to get rid of it cause want to get the same jacket in a different hide so I can use it almost all year around...this jacket will only be used during winter time...
at first I thought that this jacket would be good for spring time late summer evenings but it is a tad to thick and heavy/warm for that,so I could see myself in this only in the winter and the rest it would be hanging in the closet....
I think that the standard goat wich is slightly thicker then the new soft goatskin westd uses is perfect..
but thanx

Holt, what size is your jacket?

44 standard with a half inch wider sleevs to give the baggier LC sleeve look
