    Nope! Orange and red clash. Imo. Although... Better than mismatching your leathers.

    It's supposed to be tan, but it does have some orange undertones.

    It's actually a hoodie, not a jumper.

    I actually don't mind the orange and red. Think it would be "too perfect" if everything matched.

    I think it looks fine but personally I think it needs a rally strap...

    I thought about it, but the one on Strapsco was 5mm thick at the base, and that seemed a little thick for my tastes. Plus, I want to be able to use this on my B-1 as well, and a rally strap wouldn't work with that.

    Plus, I don't really know how I feel about rally straps. The big hole ones look great--until you see it on the wrist and a bunch of wrist hairs are poking through the holes. The perforated ones feel like they'll just wear faster.

    I wanted to get the gator embossed one, but I dawdled and they sold out. Didn't feel like waiting for it to come back in stock.
