: Hi, Baldwyn,

: I don't know why, but you look like someone I knew. Where are you? BTW, I just ordered a FS lambskin at FS in person, since I think goat is really hard too me. Some how the goat looks softer and nice on you. Maybe I should change my order. Is yours in tall or reqular size? Is it in dark brown or seal brown?

Mine's a 40R, in dark brown (chrome). It looks much better today
than yesterday, when I got it If you're still in the SF area, and
want to take a look, let me know!

: : quality, and deviations in the straightness of the seams while slight, are still noticeable. The pointy end of my pleat straps are
: : practically unravelling. I can show scans of what I mean, if people
: : are interested. The brightness of the zipper stands out as well. But
: : all in all, I'm very happy with the way the jacket looks, and I'm
