    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Thank you! I also think it looks pretty good, just feels weird. The combination of thinner, softer and rather stretchy leather and the roomier fit (mostly sleeves and lower torso) is unusual. And the leather color/finish is not something I would go for normally. But like I said, it might all...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Lightweight horsehide leather, don't event notice it when it's on. Rather spongy with a lot of give. Epic nylon lining. Pristine lining and zippers condition. Leather full of character, grain and some striations. Pigment dyed for sure. Super mobility, rather room in both body and sleeves, but...

    I'm very sorry to highjack this thread and my wife the center of attention, but here are a few shots with her waring other denim. My high waist pair, her higher waist pair that is too small, one of her favorite skirts.

    @Togs Leilah said it looks fantastic ("I wouldn't change a single thing") but also agrees that tapering in the waist (not the bottom hem) could potentially make it even better in terms of fit. My wife is easily pleased and has no strong opinion one way or the other (keep vs send back for a...

    Thank you for all the feedback! I understand that period correctness or adhering to the original is very important here on TFL and I totally go with that vibe. But let me CAREFULLY give a few counter arguments: 1 . This is already an abomination with a type 1 front (with the pocket on the wrong...

    Fit check on Aero CXFQHH Cafe Racer

    Sleeve length (being too short) would make this jacket a no-go for me personally.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Still not wearing leather jackets much, mostly my Iron Heart Type 1 in indigo cavnas, but the weather finally seems to be getting cooler and I can enjoy a leather jacket a least in the mornings and evenings. Made this fun collage while seeing how my new pair of denim looks with my 3 jackets...

    Status of Thedi Leathers?

    Aero Hooch Hauler - Brown CXL FQHH - 2 month review

    Perhaps not so surprisingly the sleeves got shorter by quite a bit, wish I had ordered at least 0.5" longer sleeves. Would not mind another 0.5" in the body either. But otherwise I'm very happy with the fit, even if mobility is not impressive.

    Are Aero Jackets that good?

    Vanson. Get a C2 cheap off JP. That marked is flooded with those. Super high supply, rather low demand. Low hanging fruit.

    Huge thanks for the chest width photo, probably the first time I've seen anyone include it and it's such a crucial measurements in my opinion!

    Leather Jacket makers in the EU

    Personally I think that 1mm goat would be on the "flimsy" side, but tanning methods influence stiffness and veg tan leather tends to be stiffer. Goat does have a lot going for it though, there are a lot fans on TFL.
