    Roughout cross zip?

    The problem with terms like suede and rough out is that yes by definition they mean something but brands use them interchangeably, and society at large does. They have become almost Meaningless. Nubuck sanded surface, suede split leather, rough out full weight just flipped. But look at so many...

    Roughout cross zip?

    For reference the jacket I’m referring to. Would I wear it to actually ride? No way. But I just think it’s beautiful, it will hold up a little better than a standard suede or rough out since it’s an oiled leather. Plus since it’s rough out and oiled it should age interestingly based on where the...

    Roughout cross zip?

    Schott has some too. You can usually find a few at any given time on eBay and grailed. Often in goat and cow. But they have one collab with 3sixteen that’s actually really nice. It was released in limited numbers a few years ago; long since sold out. it’s a heavier weight cow hide oiled...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    I suppose it depends On each batch and which tannery as they did have several. Becuse I had an early 90s C2 that was slightly lighter. Heavy but lighter. Super pliable, heavy graining. Just perfect looking broken in jacket. I only sold it because it was a size up from what I actually wear. Then...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Thats the mythical good leather. I believe modern Comp. Weight is heavier, and very nice....but does not age like this stuff.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Love it. But still not the sexiest to me haha. I don’t actually have a favorite though. I don’t particularly like Shinki either. I just love a good vintage jacket. And other than chrome and veg we won’t ever know how some of them were made. Some are missing tags and you don’t necessarily know if...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thats what I hear but sometimes it happens within the same batch of photos. And yeah I suppose one photo could be ever so slightly larger. It seems inconsistent on what the size is, is all I’m saying. But yeah I could be less lazy and resize that’s on me ha.

    It happens to me sometimes whether I insert or attach. Sometimes it doesn’t. I literally have no idea how it decides.

    FS: Post-apocalyptic Schott Perfecto 613, sz. 38

    Ivan where did you find that in the first place? Too big for me and I already have a Schott. But I actually find it pretty cool. I don’t like the writing on it; as I am not sweet as cherry. But overall I love having a good beater around.

    Absolute monster. Plus he missed his entire rookie season and half of 2012 due to lockouts. Then two covid shortened seasons. Based on his career scoring he’d be over 1,000 goals right now, and 2nd all time in career hits. But alas that time is gone. But hey here’s a 39 year old 3rd in the...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I jumped on the Fanatics website immediately after it happened! I just knew they would have a huge stock waiting to be released as soon as it happened and I was right. I bought a limited edition 895 puck, and then an even more limited autographed 895 puck. So pumped. My man crush fandom aside...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I know this is useless without pictures but use your imagination gang haha. But it’s not a jacket and everyone will know what it looks like. Today I am wearing my Ovechkin jersey to celebrate the GR8 on tying the “unbreakable” goals record. 1 more and it’s all his!

    Ultimate Leather Conditioner Comparison (on Reddit)

    Yup anything that says weatherproofing or sealing. You certainly can use on jackets and it won’t “hurt” them. But those are typically more for boots. For folks working in wet conditions, dealing with chemicals, sparks flying onto the boots constantly. It helps seal the moisture in and keep all...
