    Eastman (ELMC) Throws Their Hat in the J-100 Ring

    JFK was speaking about communism, not some secret society.

    Eastman (ELMC) Throws Their Hat in the J-100 Ring

    Absolutely. When that opinion becomes integral to a marketing message is when consumer tends to take note, and the company then has to live with the consequences.

    Eastman (ELMC) Throws Their Hat in the J-100 Ring

    Aero, Real McCoys and Diamond Dave all use the Buco label. Not sure if there are others.

    Eastman Using 911 Conspiracy Theory To Sell Eastman/ELMC Jackets

    I'm not sure about in Europe Carlos, but in the U.S. there is only a very very small few on the fringe who are debating whether our government actually bombed the World Trade Center. Editing to remove the term "lunatic" from the above sentence.

    Eastman Using 911 Conspiracy Theory To Sell Eastman/ELMC Jackets

    For those who don't follow Instagram or Twitter, the hashtags draw people to your posts as they can search for those specific terms. Thus, Eastman is looking to attract those who ascribe to the various false flag theories. Tagging George Bush would indicate 9/11 being an inside job. The same...

    Eastman (ELMC) Throws Their Hat in the J-100 Ring

    Perhaps another approach would be for Gary to not sell jackets by espousing theories that the U.S. government perpetrated 9/11. That might also help him sell the J-100. @HPA Rep

    I now find you remarkably approachable.

    Another Diamond Dave J-100

    I took the plunge because I knew that it had a top coat over the black dye, so I was confident enough to risk it. Wouldn't ever give the advise to someone else to try it, I do think it's a gamble to some extent.

    Another Diamond Dave J-100

    The top coat was a little shiny for my taste, so I hit it with some isopropyl alcohol to remove some of it. In person it looks much more matte than it did before. I used it at 70% like you buy it from the store and put it on with a makeup remover pad. A little bit of black showed on the pad...

    What would you do . . . .

    I think this is a good point, and that's why this board is a "conversation" not a lecture. Some might say "that's a little long for my taste" and the OP then responds that it's exactly how he wanted it. I've found, to HD's point, that when I'm not feeling it with a jacket that's been posted, I...

    What would you do . . . .

    Remember, we did have one member who would clearly state that he liked his jackets to fit a certain way and "encouraged" us not to comment at all on the fit.

    Your Avatar is more threatening.

    Block-Bilt: Website link-Never seen these jackets. Anyone?

    Those are the vintage repro labels.

    What would you do . . . .

    I believe that part of the formula is the manner in which the message is delivered.

    Diamond Clothing Co Buco J-100

    That hide.... just crazy.

    Eastman (ELMC) Throws Their Hat in the J-100 Ring

    This is the bottom line for me... no criticism of Eastman, I am sure they will sell plenty on their good name and quality. Like Ivan, I would just like to see more companies pushing the design envelope, even if that only means resurrecting some of the vintage designs that have been neglected...

    Diamond Clothing Co Buco J-100

    Good price, but if you look at his site, the A-2s and J-100 in Steerhide are all now $749. The J-21 is $849.

    Aero Steerhide

    Wow, that is killer! Spectacular jacket, you did very well. Great bike too...

    Aero Sheene sizing help

    I think the fit is very good, personally I wouldn't add any additional length, but that's up to the individual. Congratulations and enjoy it!

    Diamond Clothing Co Buco J-100
