Got it today, not sure of the leather but it is soft and light. Will post pictures tomorrow until then here was the listing. And the black spots are not on the jacket, I asked.

Dude....epic buy. How did you find it? Seems odd the listing never mentions Indiana jones which is what I normally search. Sneaky.

If that's the jacket I think it is, you should be very pleased with it... that killer deal aside, even.

(If you decide you don't like it, I'll get rid of it for ya! :- )

And it looks like it has D rings rather than the infamous upholstery-puncturing buckles. Well done. :H:

Looks like "Signature" in cowhide... :-k

Agreed, looks like the Signature line and since the vast majority of those were cowhide, that's a pretty safe bet.

My money is on the feather weight lambskin Signature series. I owned one before my size changed, so I'm pretty confident. It was my favorite US Wings jacket.

I would bet my life that it's New Zealand Lambskin circa 2010. I had two.

With the pocket shape and close-up pics, I'm inclined to agree. :-k

The photos certainly look like lamb to me.
