    I think I done good on a Lee Rider 101-J denim

    Neither can I....that's why I'm skeptical. It just seems like the the old "too good to be true" adage applies. I just don't have this kind of luck. :cool:

    I think I done good on a Lee Rider 101-J denim

    it looks amazing, BUT I cannot get a good look at the tag on the pocket. I will know in a couple days. I was using this as a guide for the label. By the way it was $89.00, like I said we shall see! :confused: http://www.vintagemotorcyclejackets.com/lee1.htm

    I think I done good on a Lee Rider 101-J denim

    I am pretty stoked. I have been a denim jacket enthusiast for as long as I can remember, maybe Jr. high? Anyhow from what I can tell, I may have just scored a 1964 Lee Rider 101-J off Ebay. I found a site listing the different labels and their years.......... This label, listed as 1964, is...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    they were side by side in the original photo, I edited it and seperated them. Arts bow is distinct, and the VS is a tad darker, but dimensions wise....it is really crazy how close they are. even the bashs and crease here is one last shot Art's on the left, Melegari's on the right.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    before I ordered the "Last Man" from Art, actually before I even knew Art existed I ordered this version from Cappelleria Melegari in Milan. Rabbit felt, it's pretty amazing how close these hats are.

    NEW HAT Sizing Question

    one of the available "stretchers" I should have been a little more clear on that, sorry about that. not headache tight, but it is snug and I am just a bit concerned about the difference my hair may make.

    NEW HAT Sizing Question

    I recently received a hat from VS actually about a week ago now. Realistically it's really not even broken in yet as far as wearing it. I have a concern with it though, I had been undergoing chemo treatments and obviously have lost what little hair I have left, temporarily. My concern is this...

    Custom made hats from Cappelleria Melegari

    will do! but trust me, it's spot on! I was shocked. even the ribbon, nice and wide. I always get compliments on it, wasn't expecting that.

    Custom made hats from Cappelleria Melegari

    In my quest to find a copy of "the Last Man Standing" hat I ordered one from these folks!! I am fairly new to this but I can say it is a great hat, very well made, and very representative of the LMS hat. I ordered a 62cm at first and after another measurement went with a 61cm and it fits...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Picked up my "Last Man" hat today at the post office. WOW beautiful work, fits like a glove. I'll see if I can get some photos up, sans me modeling. (still waiting on my hair to come back in from chemo, little self-conscious right now).
