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

    the chest pockets are too high and the collar construction seems off, I don't care about the scam part because the jacket doesn't even appeal to my eyes

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I think the recipe is to cinch the waist band cord to a close fit and the hem cord just a little bit, and then the rest of the jacket will drape or forced to drape and also I fully utilize the pockets the chest pockets to carry stuff and the lower pockets to rest my hands while walking

    Why did you sell your nearly new aero leather jacket(s)?

    waxed canvas jacket is not for everyone, now imagine waxed leather jacket, to me cxl is wallet or bag material and not jacket material, I think jacket materials should be dry leather that breathes unless of course you want it as "rain coat" just like its waxed canvas cousin. Perhaps their...

    Fixing asymmetrical collar on Real McCoy's leather jacket

    I hang most my jacket unzipped / unbuttoned so the time they spent hanging will also adding to break in the front panel to drape better, my goatskin and sheepskin is zipped on the hanger because they are thin, and i want to keep the area around the collar not fully crumpled.

    (Trigger warning) Are we giving too much credit for wabi-sabi/Japanese craftmanship reputation for uneven graining (especially in high visible area)?

    usually the grainy parts is naturally softer and spongy, but from the picture above both front panel left and right looks equal in its drape and creasing, so comeback to my previous suspicion, this panel seems engineered / vintaged through tumbling or washing or exposing to I don't know what to...
