          There's a post over at The Hat Place that claims Alexander Leathers has a limited supply of Horween Chromexel horsehide (FQHH) in stock…

            looks like there are some of these jackets floating around on ebay already…

              It's amazing how your taste can change so quickly.  When I first saw this I thought, "Nope.  Not for me."  Months later, and after looking at a lot of jackets, I love this.  Funny.

              (And yes, I'm already scoping winter jackets.  Is that wrong?)

                I wear this a lot.  Admittedly, not during the current heatwave.  LOVE it….

                  Good to know.  Thanks, G.  I know I'm jumping the gun with this (in terms of seasons), but I'm definitely looking forward to the collab updates.

                    I have wanted a shearling for some time. In my region it's really the best leather coat for much of the season.

                    Think it, be it.

                      I'm wondering whether a vest, like a C3, would make more sense than the full shearling jacket. You could layer it over or under a leather, and extend its range. This is Chapal's, there are versions by Eastman and Aero, and I'm sure Will could run one up.

                      I'm actually thinking of using my IHV-05 this way.

                                    Our first collab with Alexander will be happening soon.  This is the first sample, so some detailing will alter plus we will use a different lining.  It is basically the same design as the IHV-02.  Oh, and we'll be putting buttons on the production version….... 😃

                                    It will be available in Black Chrome Tanned Steer or Kudu....

                                          The leather on the A-2 looks fantastic. Not 100% sure about the fit yet, but a leather jacket that's not broken in will fit not perfect, I suppose.
