    New forum member brand (Rugged West)

    honestly the top stitch will make the sleeve post moving and creasing a bit differently, and unless the jacket is really functional pieces for performance, the top stitching only add more casual look to it with extra stiffness on the shoulder and train track puckering worn pattern to it, if the...

    if you look at the button side it's a woman's jacket, maybe the chest area and shoulder and sleeve is optimized for female figure

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    you should get a vegtan leather jacket, and shift the excitement gear into watching the jacket evolving each wear, can be natural for the maximum effect and uncertain future promise, or dyed vegtan that will fade and darken, what I mean, to give a jacket a chance to prove itself allow it to get...

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    one experience like that will change the innocence genuineness of the vibe, I hate the world has turned into such way that smart equals to immoral profit seeking and using others for personal gain. influencers asking free stuff, youtuber fashion gurus giving promotion to crap watches and crap...

    Finally picked up Schott Cafecto 603! Do I cut off the epaulets?

    since the collar is cafe racer, and the epaulette looks half shoulder, I dislike the epaulette on this jacket, it makes it look like 80s fashion jacket with epaulette on, so I vote for no epaulettes, either snip or surgically removed , the snap cap decoration looks nice so it's fine. if it would...

    Review of my 2nd THEDI Jacket

    great looking jacket and leather, I get it you like your jacket long-ish, since it is a dual zip perhaps just un do the bottom zipper pull a bit to release the tension on the hip, so the back panel can rest and flow better so will reduce the creasing on the mid back, congrats again!

    Review of my 1st THEDI Jacket

    I think the back is not too short, but contrary the back is a bit too long for this style that's why you get a lot of creases on the back, but the rest of the jacket fits you well, so perhaps just wait until the leather breaks up and relaxes a bit with more wears and perhaps rain.

    Wanted an AERO, got a DOUBLE HELIX 1930 style

    really cool steel blue kind of shade, perhaps once the undertone starts showing then perhaps it will get even more interesting, cool leather jacket/ coat, perhaps a touch long for a jacket with zipper box all the way to the hemline, but if you wear it unzipped most of the time then it's a great...

    you are right seems like the pattern give a spacious room for a very high foot bridge no human will ever have, I think a wedge insole could lessen this problem

    the tall version docmart is not affected by it, there they develop similar natural looking creases like on combat/ jumper boots

    seems like something pulling, maybe the shape of the shaft on doc mart is angled certain way that made that pull once worn perhaps? because it always happen, seems like pattern oriented but I'm not sure why

    why do docMart, always crease this ugly on the side, that horizontal line from the vamp all the way to the top of heel cap, what might be the root of the cause? combat boots with similar pattern rarely have this problem they crease a lot more natural and doesn't look unnatural like on doc marts
