    Bill Kelso Wait Times

    it's not so different than western/ cowboy boots right? ranch workers, country singers, harley riders, all wear same boots but probably chose different kind of leather, but wearing the same boots more or less. Engineer boots is something different I wonder what profession choose to wear them for...

    Bill Kelso Wait Times

    however in boots like wesco or other what do you call them PNW? they also have long waits, but they seem to have steady market segment, perhaps because they serve a real purpose, logger, house builder, ranger, etc, need them for their professional grade function, while custom leather jackets...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Sizing advice/fit check. Versatile or not

    but are you going to wear your jacket fully zipped, while reaching backward? I think what makes jackets looks cool worn open or worn half zipped is when the front is pulling apart a little, for racer type jacket I mostly wear half zipped they look best that way, and for cross zip I wear them...

    Sizing advice/fit check. Versatile or not

    I personally think the front panel of a jacket must be snug, any extra room to accomodate layering must come from the back panel , so from the front view the fit won't change much whether you wear it with a t-shirt or with a mid layer, but the back of the jacket will make room for it, and a...

    the guy got your point (and most likely want to end the banter) .. that was the center of his previous post, and not the "soul" part
