    Just when you thought you had seen it all . . . (Warning: Not for the fainthearted)

    Ok sorry this isn’t a jacket Admins/Mods if you want to remove it then go right ahead. But I just saw this advertised to me and I feel like this is when our niche, culture, hipster lifestyle whatever you want to call it has gone too far. This just seems so unnecessary and so overkill.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    So good. I never really liked this style. Then the LW came out and I moved a little closer to liking it. But seeing it on you, and next to your bike a few times now the light finally clicked. I get it now, and it’s awesome.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It seems that stretch is everywhere and I hate it. I like structure and true fit to my pants. Not to mention I’m a relatively small waisted guy so in most brands I’m a 28 or 30. But if they are stretch I have to size down and it’s impossible to size down after 28. Or some stop at 30 even. Drives...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Gotta say he’s an awesome friend for helping you so much. And you’re an amazing friend for repaying him with such a gift. That’s friendship goals right there.

    Vintage Cal - It's changing my outlook on things

    I know @Jin431 will agree with this. There’s something about those old Cals. Rarely does anyone find one that fits just right; but the leather and design on them is just special. I can’t even say it’s this or that, can’t say specifically what it is....but they are special.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Having said all that since I’ve been looking for nice olive colored corduroys or twills under 250... I did find this brand Topo Designs. I’ve read good things about them for the price. Not the worlds best but also only 98 dollars. They have my size in stock, only thing I’m not sure of is the...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It is funny. How repro and vintage inspired makers are so meticulous and use old school techniques and materials trying to nail the past. Or as in the vintage inspired and not exact repro makers spend so much time accelerating aging or fades, or using different materials to create new spins on...

    I’ve recently been looking at a bunch of olive jeans, chinos, and corduroy styles. What brand are you wearing?

    Q&A with Jason Schott

    As we all know Schott has some dubious claims, and their products quality vary wildly. But the actual institution of Schott is great. The family seems really nice, they still have an American made line of product, with good paying union jobs. They seem to have great customer service; which I’ve...

    The Relapse

    In defense of pour over coffee it is damn good though. But not really worth the time. Only if you have the time. I love coffee but I also am just fine with some quick Tim Hortons or Dunkin Donuts coffee. I’m not too picky.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    It reminds me of how mail works here in Buffalo. All mail gets picked up and taken to a facility in Rochester, which is about 1 to 1.5 hours away. Even if that mail is going to someplace in Buffalo. I want to mail my neighbor a bday card. Goes to Rochester first.

    The Relapse

    The hipster point is interesting to me. My fiancé likes to joke I’m a hipster. To be fair I don’t like much of anything you think of when you hear hipster. I’m not into any aspect of stereotypical hipster culture other than the clothes. No music, literature, films, irony death cults, just...

    Shangri—La Heritage

    If Five Star ever gets back to me about redoing my gold suede trucker and I want another; looks like I found a great next step up company. Seems like good stuff and to know the owners are so nice and accommodating is always huge.

    Shangri—La Heritage

    I responded to @ton312 comment but meant to tag @Flametop ad well since it was geared towards his question. So ugh consider this the tag I meant to do above ha

    Shangri—La Heritage

    Yes not a ton of info on them. But as you see one of their owners is on here and they’ve been pretty responsive. Shoot them a message and I’m sure they will answer any questions you have. They look a tweak or two away from really nailing it. Instead of taking our comments about the d pocket...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    They don’t get enough love. You can usually find them for 150-250 with only the nicest of the nice conditions above that. Yet they are a classic cross zip d pocket design, well put together, and with decent enough leather for the price that is. So in that range I wasn’t disappointed in my...
