    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Wow those are stunning, what a bunch of really decent looking leathers! The rust and something that looks like a tan at the top left is really interesting to me but wow on some of the other colours too! I hope Kim sends me these samples too cos I had mentioned that I wanted only black and...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    From my understanding and this is from a guy who only has 1 jacket lol, the seam seems to help, pun intended. It'll allow the leather to fold inwards to the spine according to the natural contours of the back. When I stretch back to yawn, I can feel the center of the jacket folding to the back...

    Let me find the thread somewhere as quite a few members echoed that statement about the center seam but let me find those threads. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/seam-down-the-middle-in-the-back-poll.101849/ I found some the center seam discussions.

    Help with a Ladies Jacket

    I'm happy to buy something that looks vintage, she on the other hand I'll have to find out. So far whenever she sees that the leather has creases etc she wrinkles her nose lol. I saw a beautiful Langitz Feather but she wasn't impressed by it...:rolleyes: We have very different tastes indeed.

    High Notch Leathers (House brand) Izumiya clothing store (Retail store)

    That is a almost perfect fit for me except the shoulders at 45 are an inch too small but at that price it is seriously worth starving over.

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    The center seam helps to reduce the back bulge as the leather has no where to go and can puff up when you straighten your back, this is especially true if you ride often and the back is molded to that rounded shape, so when you straighten up the back will pop out and look like a bad bulge. I...

    Simmons Bilt - Need help to communicate!

    They are a small outfit and sometimes when things gets hectic they might not be able to reply and the last time I emailed Deborah Toohey <info@simmonsbilt.com> there was a family emergency with the passing of a loved one but 2 weeks is indeed a bit long. They have an instagram account...

    ELMC Californian -vs- Simmons Bilt Tailgunner?

    That's awesome but I really think riding isn't for me. The drivers here are awful and the weather is so hot and humid I'll need a bath after every ride. I know Simmons don't get a lot of love here but I've seen some of their jackets and they are pretty awesome, some of their designs really...

    ELMC Californian -vs- Simmons Bilt Tailgunner?

    I'll second Aloysius on a Vanson or some other riding jacket, the tailgunner is an amazing looking jacket and if it's just for your walkabouts, it's a fine jacket, I'll chose it over the ELMC simply cos it is such a nice jacket and how well the freedom of movement it has. I don't ride yet I...

    Help with a Ladies Jacket

    In her case think Burberry and Max Mara less biker chick. I would want her to give it a try cos it would be very Vroom Vroom to me lol. To me and most of the guys here I guess a good leather jacket is an extension of yourself something durable, unique and actually is a statement about...

    Help with a Ladies Jacket

    Carlos, I hear ya, I'll always remember the neck aches my first Aero gave me. Never again when there are so many other options. Lewis is a bit harder to find on eBay but a Langlitz goat might be a good starting point. Red Devil, I think for her first serious jacket she would prefer to stick...

    Help with a Ladies Jacket

    Hey guys, I did some frying of the brain cells over the weekend and I tried to roast em over what my gf wears, how she chooses her stuff and how often she wears what... trust me, my 2 brain cells are burnt. My simple analysis and thoughts. I can wear the same jeans for a week, she won't wear...

    Help with a Ladies Jacket

    Goat seems a very interesting option and it's not too heavy or stiff. I would like her to have something that doesn't break apart in just a few years. I had one Zara syn jacket that literally started peeling after sitting in the wardrobe for 3 months, never again will I buy that junk. A...
