Stylish and very well built
I've been lusting after this jacket for years and finally it came on sale! Now that I have it, I can say it was definitely worth the wait, with a minor few nitpicks.
First the pros: very well built, and you can def see the step up in materials and construction. I love the crossover look of a moto jacket with the shearling, which makes this incredibly unique. Body fit is good, and very warm (though I'm putting this on in spring...give it to the winter). On my particular jacket the 'fading' doesn't look artificial, just worn in. However, this is my 2nd order; the 1st I returned and had some really big patches of 'fade' which made it look weird.
Improvements: there are some slight refinements that could be added to the jacket for a bit of modernization. The body is great, but the arms bunch a little due to length. Of course, your mileage may vary depending on body type. However a bit of pre-curve like in real motorcycle jackets could help. Also, the collar flap could use a button or magnet to keep it flat.
The one failure point I could see are the pockets. On the inside the pocket is attached to a piece of string, and after much wear I could see this fraying.
Overall, love this jacket. A real keeper.
