    Thank you for taking the critique in stride and listening. You could have gotten pissed off or told us we were wrong. But you didn’t. Everything else about this pattern looks really good. So does the leather. If you nail down the stitching this will be killer! I would love it in a teacore...

    Very true. We can commiserate together; and then also rejoice in the money we’ve saved from it.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Stopped into the local Army/Navy yesterday and got these Canadian Navy Chukkas. These are fairly ugly but I wish you all could feel them. I’ve never felt anything built as solid as these. Not even any other military boots. Not Nicks nor Frank’s. They just feel like they can survive a nuclear...

    I don’t mind. And like I said I get that they are limited and I get that people want something in return. But what I’ve learned in this jacket game is that it’s like a car. Could be brand new but you drive it off the lot it’s already lost value. You’ll see these things listed then listed again...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    To be honest I like how each and every variation of these boots looked. Too bad about the awful heel slip. Also side not Gabbard is crazy talented. One day I’ll own a pair of his boots. Crazy expensive. And I’m not complaining. I’ve commented this on some of the boot FB groups I’ve seen you in...

    Fine Creek Leather

    Yeah I’ve seen that one. I want one. I want one bad. But I’m not going over retail on it straight up. I would consider that cost since it’s a limited buy and that can lead to over retail costs. But only if I could knock a good junk off the cost with trades. A lot of people you’ll also find have...

    Fine Creek Leather

    Not my size. I’m a small. If you do stick around you’ll hear me complain enough about my size. I’m a like a 16 year old kids size with the mind of a 34 year old adult male. It does not make getting new jackets easy. I do ok with vintage as people were smaller back then. But anything after like...

    Yup! I hope A-1 is out there living his best life as they say. Not giving a single fu** about TFL or oz measurements or patterns or hide and finish. Be free @A-1!!

    What’s your size and that Schott-3Sixteen rough out.....want to trade/sell? Haha. I’ve been eyeing that one for forever and rarely comes up in my size and when it does people never really want to trade or work anything out. I do hope you find the jacket you’re looking for though. I would highly...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Just had to check them out. Not really into “western boots” but they have some really cool exotic leathers. Might get a wallet or belt from them. Also I’m a big fan of a musician called Jesse Dayton and they have a boot named after him so I’m loving that.

    Please do give a full review of the shop, product, and customer service if you do make it out there. Being in the US I highly doubt I’ll ever get there; well, at least not any time soon.

    Shangri—La Heritage

    No worries! Lots going on. I often forget where I read something. Was it “cool photos, or how many jackets, or finds and deals etc..” haha. But yeah totally agree. Like a really good pattern and looks like good leather. The other stuff they have to offer looks pretty good. But when you’re...

    Shangri—La Heritage

    Nope. Been mentioned by @Marc mndt , myself, @TG3, and @Mich486 on the prior page. We all agreed the pattern looks great. The leather and collar look killer. But the D pocket sewing is off. The one thing this company has going for it though is that they consistently seem to get better and use...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Haha no I won’t be getting this one. I just had a golden opportunity for a dad joke I couldn’t pass up. I just made a trade with someone and have two incoming jackets off that, and just accidentally bought another. I wrote about it in the “how many....jackets” thread. I was eyeing a Thurlow...

    WTT Vanson CHP2 size 38 for size 36 Vanson cross zip.

    It’s so hard to know your size in general. Every brand is different, every era is different. Is it a custom size? If it’s labeled by S,M,L what does that even mean? Haha. I can find some decent vintage pieces since they tend to run smaller and TTS. I just can’t find new stuff. Like I’ve had a...

    Wouldn't it be a shame if this thread gets locked/removed too?

    Thanks for taking the time. As I said you do good work. I didn’t see the thread in question so I feel I’m missing all the context. I don’t know what happened or why. That’s why I said maybe best to leave things like that up. Because half the group now feels like what the hell happened and why...

    Wouldn't it be a shame if this thread gets locked/removed too?

    Thing that gets me....we’ve picked apart Schott jackets for sure. We’ve torn apart Aero jackets many times over the years. And aero has people on this forum. Monitor had a good and justified rant against LW. But it’s Himel that causes an issue. I get the redundancy thing and how it’s “the...
