I do too with a bunch of items under $250 or so. Then end up flipping it on here.

I've really started really pondering purchases now and not so many impulse buys. Gotten really specific too, not just 'i want a black jacket'. it's, I want this specific jacket, from this season and I'm going to wait until I find it. That's why I've got a near impossible Julius bag in my signature and the crust calf mollino. Will probably never frickin find the julius though.

people strongly suggest against that bag because you have to undo the straps every time you use the bag. very very cumbersome and holster moto is the one snake has

Best fit pic of the hi-collar.

After looking at the Julius motos in the past few weeks, I am not liking the zippers and how it doesn't start all the way to the bottom and doesn't go all the way to the top when zipped up.

most of the motos and riders zip from the bottom. the ones that don't are the ones that lane seems to be interested in though lol

Really? It seems like most of the riders I've seen doesn't zip all the way down. I can't recall seeing one that does.

little things like that are what makes me love the julius riders. I think im gonna buy the 09SS one if I can get the price im looking for. I like it better than the fw one cuz it isn't as snug, plus the style is more suitable for me. Funny thing is now that I remember, when I first found out about this brand last year this was the leather I was lusting over...lol

i remember telling you one day that the jacket looked like it was eating the wearer. I'm sure it looks nice open, but not zipped up. In fact that's why I've backed out on the other highcollar/geo.

Just really not feeling the zippers and too much pockets in that rider. Isn't there a rider with less pockets?
