    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Reading through the last several pages of this same thread should get you started. I have seen plenty, and I only search FL and ebay, nothing from overseas at all. I have no idea what you mean by "ideally cropped". What style, design/function and fit do you want? Button up or zip...

    Aero J-106/Ridley fit check

    Correction - I just put on my Aero Indian Ranger and yes, the OP's jacket is ~ 1.5" longer that I would have it either. If you are working with Carrie at Thurston brothers, I would ask for it to be re-made if possible...

    Aero J-106/Ridley fit check

    Unfortunately, "too long for the style" or not I won't wear a jacket that does not at least 3/4 cover my belt. Hard stop. As far as this jacket on you - it's as good as I realistically could expect, if anything a bit too trim (you could not put much under it.) I no longer deal with "trim...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Really amazing work right here! Truly an interesting jacket and honestly and very marketable pattern and design. Even the leather & lining are just spot-on!

    I may be wrong, but it appears to be covered with mold. Looks like it's been sitting in a barn for ~ 30 years.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Here is an example of one that is "too far" gone. There is vintage, "project vintage" then "bonfire vintage." This appears to fit the third category. https://www.ebay.com/itm/365240472113?

    That is a solid plan sir, it'll last and you should have no regrets about it!

    Fitcheck Fine creek leon 44 or 42. Which one should i choose.

    You asked for our thoughts here, and they seem to have been delivered. I would choose a different brand/direction for this type of Perfecto jacket.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    ^^ That's an interesting pair of White's. I'll have to review their page as this much lower-arch model isn't familiar to me. They look like Nick's Falcons which are similarly built on a lower-arch last. The bottom sole (not heel) is quite unfamiliar to me - is that what you meant here "He...

    ^^ I just realized, if that Vanson had an nice Iowa Hawkeye made of leather across the back, it would sell for 2-3X the price in my area! :)

    Langlitz or Johnson Leathers would do this sort of customization for you. If you are US-based, try calling them to see what their options are...

    Vanson Model B Cafe Racer Competition Weight - Size 42

    Super nice! If it was a "44" It would be gone.

    Bates Vintage Padded CR ~ 42

    Really nice vintage Bates - Green over black steerhide, that is grainy, supple and in excellent shape, honestly "feels like" Vanson's Comp-weight. Just too small for me so a catch & release here. Leather lined pockets, interior lining in perfect condition, no rips, tears, loose seam or...
