Karamojo Safari is the tale of Walter Bell's epic journey into Karamojo (now Uganda & Kenya). Bell's safari lasted 14 months, and during that time he shot 180 elephants and brought back 18,762 pounds of ivory. Of these, 31 tusks weighed over 100 pounds each, and the largest pair weighed in at 145 and 148 pounds. His trip netted Bell £6000 profit. (Kirkus Review) Walter Dalrymple Maitland Bell (8 September 1880 - 30 June 1954), known as Karamojo Bell, was a Scottish adventurer, big game hunter in East Africa, soldier, decorated fighter pilot, sailor, writer, and painter. Famous as one of the most successful ivory hunters of his time, Bell was an advocate of accurate shot placement with smaller calibre rifles, over the heavy large-bore rifles his contemporaries used for big African game. He improved his hunting skills by the dissection and study of the skulls of elephants he shot. He perfected a technique of shooting elephants from the extremely difficult position, diagonally behind the target; this shot became known as the Bell Shot. Although chiefly known for his exploits in Africa, Bell also travelled to North America and New Zealand, sailed windjammers, saw service in South Africa during the Boer War, flew in the fledging Royal Flying Corps in East Africa, Greece and France during World War I. He wrote 3 books about his hunting experiences and exploits: 'The Wanderings of an Elephant Hunter'; 'Karamojo Safari'; and 'Bell of South Africa.'

TRIED OTHER DENIM JACKETS LEVI THE ONLY WAY
This jacket is exactly what I was hoping for timeless, clean, and super versatile. The black denim looks sharp and goes with everything, from jeans to chinos. The fit is true to size and hits that perfect spot between fitted and comfortable. I can move around easily without it feeling stiff, and it breaks in nicely after a few wears. The quality really stands out — solid stitching, durable buttons, and that signature Levi’s structure that just looks good no matter how you style it. It’s warm enough for cool days but still light enough to wear indoors or layer over a hoodie. Im 180lbs 6’2 for reference, If you’re after that classic denim jacket look that never goes out of style, this one’s it. I get compliments every time I wear it. Also I’ve owned it a year now and it still looks great.

Levi Sun Surf Type 3 Denim Trucker Jacket - Med Wash
Special Size Type: Standard, Size: Medium, Color: (New) Sun Surf, Special Size Type: Standard, Size: Medium, Color: (New) Sun Surf
Levi Type 3 Trucker jackets are the best you can buy. Every one should own a couple of these. I have every color of the Premium versions, that I bought straight from Levi. I've been wanting to try this Sun Surf type 3 from Amazon for a while now. I bought this one to wear over my hoodies on the cooler days and nights, because of its wide body fit. It's not as slim as the Premiums, but it's just as official. It's super soft and lightweight. The fit and appearance is on point. It looks just like the pictures. Love it! I might get a dark wash as well. Amazon + Levi for the win again!

A beautiful HIGHLY fashionable jean jacket! Well packed at a great price!
Size: Large, Color: Acid Blue - Ripped
Awesome jean jacket (that acid washed look which is what I enjoy going for). It fits me really nicely (snug to say the least). It's not a loose fitting jacket, but I believe that's the currently style for jean jackets. I like that tigher fitting jacket where you can wear a longer t-shirt underneath (like an oversized t-shirt would look really nice with this jacket, or a tie dye type t-shirt). Quality? 10 out of 10! It's thick, it's well-made and came very nicely packed. :)
