    Field Leathers

    I agree with this. It is one of the reasons I bought from Aero b/c their website is so easy and convenient, coupled with excellent CS. I can explore what they offer and see my options. With other places, I need to email and may never get a response OR I need to call. Now I feel bummed if I don't...

    Field Leathers

    Wow a thing of beauty! Does it have that new veg tanned leather smell? Also when I go to Japan in August, I seriously hope to explore and maybe pick up a shinki hikaku cafe racer. Just makes me feel better if I can nail down the fit when spending so much. Used is ok too! Thanks for sharing!

    Nice jacket! I'm looking at his website and I only see the route 66 cafe racer. Is the detroit discontinued or something you have to ask for?

    Loungers' Pets

    My little corgi, Willie! Don't let his looks fool you. He is only nice to the family lol. Menace to everything else that moves. We think he is just overly protective or not socialized enough... or both! Oh yeah that training balance beam is for my 12 YO who has a meet in Rochester this weekend...

    Do you ride a motorcycle?

    if you are in the US take the MSF course and you will get an idea. Some states like PA the course is free I believe. I’m in NY so paid around $400.

    Wow that was quick! Thanks! Do you have a link? Also did you end up using them in a jacket and if so, any updates? Would love to see how they look on a jacket.

    Riri vs Crown zipper

    Hi TartuWolf, I too am considering maybe these zippers for a leather jacket possibly from Fields. I am in the US so who knows but how much did you order and from where? Thanks!

    Need advice on zippers

    Hi I am considering (not a done deal by any stretch of the imagination yet) ordering a route 66 in shinki from Greg F. He told me I can supply my choice of zippers (he uses repro talon made in japan). My question for you experts is this: where can I get some riri or ykk size 8 or even 10...

    Highwayman what kind of leather to use

    Great! Thank you for the info. Also in case anyone is wondering my current j106 fits very good but the chest p2p could be an inch smaller. My j106 is size 36 and Aero actually recommended 38 which without a doubt would be waaay too loose for me IMHO. At the end of the day sometimes I need to...
