I've thought about getting those too, but something just feels a bit off about them. I also don't like that they don't have speed hooks at the top, but that's just cause I'm lazy.

Actually just yesterday. I was underwhelmed. I didn't inspect them closely, but at a glance they didn't strike me as a hell of a lot more robust than 1970s Chucks or JP Signatures. I'm sure they are better in lots of subtle ways, but not in any obvious ones.

I also saw that Nine Lives jacket in person and it is less impressive on a rack and more impressive when worn than I expected. Recent developments have made it a poor financial decision for me to get it, unfortunately, but when that is no longer the case I will be getting it for sure.
