    Glock in Jacket Pistol Pocket (?)

    It's a $65 modification to any jacket you're willing to pay the 15% custom fee for. I'm unaware of any Vanson that comes w/ that pocket as standard.

    Glock in Jacket Pistol Pocket (?)

    I normally carry a G43 or G48 w/ an IWB kydex holster. I have a new Vanson coming and am wondering if any of you have used a pistol pocket for its intended application and have a comment on their efficacy. Specifically, a Glock w/out a holster is a pistol w/out much of a safety and I'd like to...

    Aerostich Combat Touring Boots / 9.5 US

    Any interest in a nearly new and no longer available pair of CBT's? I wear a 10/10.5 depending and I bought these several years ago over the net because they were nearly unused and marked as 44's... which I interpreted as you just did. Sadly, that was incorrect and the actual size is 9.5US...

    Haha! Nicely done. I remember the days of going out to get an occasional haircut. They were glorious. Savor them!

    Vintage Walker Engineer Boot

    Here's how hooks work for those that haven't tried them before. You'll sometimes see shorter hooks offered and I would recommend against them. Within reason the longer the hook the greater your leverage and the more smoothly your foot will slide into the boot.

    Vintage Walker Engineer Boot

    Yepper. Boot hooks will definitely help and you'll prefer them to a long shoe horn once you've tried them. They're usually sold in pairs such that you can hook them on the two leather loops on each side of a boot shaft. In instances where a boot only has a loop at the rear it works even...

    If they’re a complete hassle to get your foot into you might find a set of boot hooks helpful.

    A lot of thought went into that patch placement. No doubt.

    Buying approach - focused or targets of opportunity

    Two completely different personality types are well represented on this board and only one of them haunts the leather jacket threads. The term I was introduced to was "recreational shopping" and it's used at least once on this board in a thread that talks about decluttering, hoarding and the...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I thought I heard you mention that you were thinking about trimming your closet of heavier jackets, no? That's a beauty and looks like it's probably stout and heavy. Was it someone else that said that or did you see this jacket and just had to have it, heavy or not? Nice jacket either way.

    Connection Beyond Consumerism

    This from last night. There was a time when I would've thought these belonged in a vat. Now I just wish they were somewhere else. They'll trash whatever's on your porch and as an example both of those wooden 1/2 barrels had 20g of water in them and a couple dozen minnows. They drank all 20...

    Schott 508... Aero Bootlegger like jacket

    I'm no expert but given the finish I'd wager it'll be darker soon enough. Right now it looks like a lighter colored tan w/ dark highlights. In a year I'd expect the dominant color to be roughly 1/2 way between the light and dark hues you see now and the highlights will be the lighter color...

    Thank you, Sir. You are too kind and yeah, I was bummed when we all found out that Cormack would write no more. I'm honored to be an echo of your Grandfather if just for a moment. Thank you.

    Connection Beyond Consumerism

    I get that. Here's a pic of my buddy Popeye to make some of that go away. The bear was worse though. There's no coup de' grâce for a 600+ pound animal when you're packing a .22
