I have been looking for a leather jacket for a while now and stumbled on this thread via google.

I am looking for a great - fitting leather motocross jacket in brown or dark grey for spring/summer (moving to San Francisco from England.) I am not a fan of "busy" designs when it comes to clothes, so something simple = awesome. Budget of around $1000. I pretty much live in brown shoes; slim jeans; plain grey tshirt, so I felt a moto jacket was best.. Any tips much appreciated, thanks guys.

It's not paper thin, definitely thinner than oiled calf but I think the blistered lamb is even thinner than the hammered lamb.

Take a look at the TOJ thread, they make leather jakcets of the highest quality - customized to your size and preferences. Pictures here: toj.pixi.me.
