    Dying and “waxing” a suede jacket

    With my admitted somewhat limited and in general disastrous efforts at home dying I'd say this sounds like a plan to turn an oatmeal jacket into a blotchy reddish mess. The pecards sound like an interesting way to get a waxy worn look to a suede jacket. If you really can't live with the jacket...

    I'm not sure what you mean by a field jacket but if your looking for something like a Barbour international j peterman has two. One In black in their last chance department and one in brown in the regular department. I have the black jacket and really do enjoy it. I think the two jackets are cut...

    Edward there is nothing wrong with the fit and finish of the wested ROLA I'm really very pleased with it I although I do wish from time to time that I had Peter do something slightly heretical with it like a scalloped back or A2 shoulder epaulettes.....maybe next time if I remember correctly...

    Jacket hardware

    Hey there loungers I'm having several of my favorite old thrift store finds taken in post weight loss and was thinking while I was at it why not update the hardware in the process and then got to thinking why not do it on some of my new jackets as well (the wested ROLA and j peterman british...

    Wested B-3 Sheepskin jacket

    If you do go with wested for it give them a call or visit tell them what you want to do with it. Peter is a nice fellow and might cut you a deal on materials/labor. Saving you the hassle of doing it yourself. Also I highly recommend if possible trying on any wested jacket some can run large with...

    Wested B-3 Sheepskin jacket

    Accuracy be- damned I was at wested a few weeks ago picking up one new jacket and dropping off another to be fitted. I looked at their b3 as I am on a quest of my own to find a cheap preferably second hand cheap example. it was a quality sheepskin garmet at most prices and defiantly at that...

    Aero London Stockists

    I had no problem with the fit and finish of the jackets. admittedly none of the styles they had were ones i would order. some fault may fall on me I think butte is right my expectations may have been too high. Then again for the price of an aero from the factory anything less then perfection...

    Aero London Stockists

Go inside and amongst all of the vintage leather sure enough three brand new aero steerhides. Prices seemed a little too good to be true at under 200 pounds. this being...

    Special Hangers for Heavy/Expensive Leather Jackets?

    haha well Butte my jackets don't seem to mind or at least they haven't spoken up about it. I don't have to worry about the wife as of yet. besides MacGyvering my own gives me more dough to spend on either

    Special Hangers for Heavy/Expensive Leather Jackets?

    I'm with the loungers that leather belongs on the floor however a massive pile of leather jackets is not so much a conversation piece as it is an eyesore. I like the idea of buying the expensive hangers with the shoulder savers, but at 10 a pop i could nearly by an areo for the cost to outfit...
