    What is this Brand?

    I was looking through instagram and this brand came into my feed. They were featured in Clutch magazine issue that Himel is featured in. I couldn't find anything about it on google. The brand seems to be Japanese, the style is very typical of vintage leather brands, half belt, cafe racer, Buco...

    Canadian Varsity Jackets

    I could be wrong but this is like an Engineer thing. Engineer faculties in most major Canadian universities still issue these leather jackets. I see them all the time on the street here in Toronto, not sure about the quality though.

    It's a cross-zip (or is it a Grizzly?)

    I didn't know Ralph Lauren used Talon zippers

    Himel Brothers Leather Co.

    Bump, I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with Himel's goatskins. Most of the jackets here talked about are made of Shinki Horse, but looking through his catalogue he does offer a whole array of goat skins. I am looking for something that might be lighter than horse that I can wear...

    Experience with Blattwerk horsehide (Simmons Bilt)?

    if you really like the leather, you should buy it, as far as I know SB is the only company that offers that leather. By the way many people on this forum own/owned SB/AL jackets. There are a lot of threads on their product. Don't be swayed by what an internet forum tells you, it's your money...

    Experience with Blattwerk horsehide (Simmons Bilt)?

    you didn't make a mistake, you are allowed to make threads on the topic. It's just a lot of threads of Simmons Bilt turn sour and the mods eventually close it.

    So, I got myself an A2(Eastman)

    I think that fits perfectly, not too baggy, sleeves right length

    Schott 141 cafe racer, collar wear

    maybe the owner had a cat or rabbit that collar used it as a chew/claw toy

    Simmons Bilt Jacket Underway

    actually LW told me veg tanned leather is the least "manly" thing there is, so I don't feel very masculine at all

    Best warm leather jackets?

    If it's really cold go for something like a Canada Goose imo, it's just lighter sheepskin is warm for sure, but it is much heavier than down jackets, so if you walk a lot it takes time to get used to.

    Lost Worlds J23 4.5oz

    i wonder if Stu is willing to make the J23 out of his 3 Oz leather. I would def consider it as my next big purchase next year.

    Lost Worlds J23 4.5oz

    I feel like our perception of leather is really skewed now. Most of the "light weight" "fashion" leather like shinki and Vincenza would be too heavy for every day joes. When I think of fashion leather I think about soft lambskin jackets at the gap or something

    Lost Worlds J23 4.5oz

    I've seen a lot of pictures jackets on the forum I have to say whenever LW is posted, the construction and finish is always impeccable just by the eye test, it's really up there with the Japanese brands. If they offered lighter hide I would be all over that given the price.

    Simmons Bilt jacket advice

    I really love color of the leather, stellar looking jacket. I've never handled CXL jackets, so i have no idea how it would break in

    SB ANJ-4 Style Jacket

    By the way what's the measurements for that, what what size do you usually, I always find it hard to know the size for shearling jackets what's so thick

    Got blocked by Simmons Bilt Instagram because my comment

    Honestly I don't really see the ridicule of the older generation. I don't think I've ever heard of someone making fun of a dad wearing dad jeans, it's more like if you are 17 and you wear dad jeans people will ridicule you. Same goes the other way around, I think if my dad walked out today with...
