I was rather hoping for something a tad more practical....more pockets and room to wear a sweater under it for cold weather! I think it is at least showerproof.


I have to say I really don't like it. I do have a jacket somewhat similar but I would never consider it a jacket for use in the Morgan.

I have a Irvin Lightweight from Aviation Leathercraft (Moto-Lita) and on the way to Shelsley Walsh we passed by the Moto-Lita factory and purchase a Monza lambskin jacket for Alis. It is lighter and more supple than the sheepskin and has a lovely honey coloured internal wool. Alis loves it.

PS. If you visit Moto-Lita/Aviation Leathercraft in your Morgan watch out for the speed bumps, they are vicious. The one on the road into the site is to be avoided, you could get hung up on it, and the staff recommend driving in on the exit road (with care, obviously)
