Default Leather Jacket question

Anyone heard of Leather Paradise? The seem to have some killer deals on Ebay. The naked leather jackets are 1.6 to 1.7mm thick I'm considering one like this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NAKED-LEATHE...item53df898d2a.

I currently have a perforated HD jacket (Didn't realize it was Lambs skin until after the special order) which I wear on hot days and a HD Denier Bright orange jacket but am also considering a leather one for the cooler days. (Both have armor).

I'm not 100% sure, but it looks a lot like my leather jacket. I bought mine at Joeta's Leathers in Mesa AZ about 2 years ago. Great jacket. That large breast pocket on the left is a gun pocket on mine. I didn't see that mentioned in the eBay listing.

IMO, if it's for "cooler days", that style collar is WORTHLESS!

I would have to wear a gaiter with the jacket zipped all the way up.
