    All hail brown CXLFQHH, incredible color depth. Talk about badalassi color depth all you want, this is the real deal.

    Help finding new leather jacket

    Alright so if we talk about mobility you either need extra material (either plainly more spacious upper back or hidden using mobility features) or stretch (ex goatskin). If we keep the bottom torso the same and change only the top torso - I guess you could add extra material by just having a...

    Help finding new leather jacket

    Location? UK? US? EU? JP? @Aloysius Can you comment on pattern mobility vs model with mobility features? The way I understand pattern (as opposed to proportions) is in relation to mobility. For me Vanson = Good Patterns = Good mobility (while still being form fitting). Can you have good...

    Fine Creek Leon

    By that logic most bike modifications are moronic as they often involve cutting off or modifying parts to a point where it is possible to return it to the original state. Bobber bikes would be the definition of moronic then. Not arguing, just saying. I have no horse in this conversation - don't...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Looks amazing overall. Please more and better quality pics. I'm still a huge fan of the Maxwell and would love to have it someday. Also in cordovan. Fit looks perfect apart from the sleeve length, but you mentioned that the photos don't do them justice. Maybe .5" more body length would be...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    @GraceNote13 Thank you for taking the time to review/report on your newest 5*! That jacket looks like a total beast. If it had the correct shoulder width, high armholes and neck hole positioned further back - it would be a huge success. But that's always the story with 5* - 80-90% there but...

    Fit check: Hundredth post about Highwayman fit

    Body length and sleeve length are very personal / subjective parts of fit. More than any other aspects of fit I'd say. I'd like mine to be longer personally, especially when driving or raising my hands overall. But when your arms a simply hanging on the sides then visually it looks ok at that...

    New forum member brand (Rugged West)

    @Aloysius Where do they state that it's from the Punjab? From the price perspective I still really envy US folks who have Vanson available for order and a large market for used Vansons in terms of "value/budget" jackets.

    Fit check: Hundredth post about Highwayman fit

    Looks pretty good to me apart from sleeve length. And yeah a unified "fit check" thread might make sense.

    Teacore leather jackets - post yours here!

    Perfection as far as tea-core goes in my opinion.

    New forum member brand (Rugged West)

    Nothing wrong with that - true, but it is sketchy/suspicious when it is not mentioned where the garments are actually made. Anyway - will be nice to hear some reviews/feedbacks once someone actually orders one of these. It does say that custom is an option for 60gbp extra. So ~550eu for a custom...

    Seeking Leather Specialist Recommendations for Horsehide Sleeve Alteration

    Got my fingers crossed. It's a rather low value jacket for the first try, but still high hopes. I understand how they will make the waist narrower, but I don't know how they are planning to make the chest width and the sleeve width wider. But they said it's no problem.

    New forum member brand (Rugged West)

    "We knew that there would be no half-measures taken with this jacket, so our team hand-sourced a premium waxy cowhide while our Sialkot tannery gave it its deep ‘oil black’ patina." So where are these made? UK? Pakistan? Is this the typical case where someone just orders jackets from 5*-ish...

    Seeking Leather Specialist Recommendations for Horsehide Sleeve Alteration

    The one in Poland: https://www.facebook.com/SalonyAndyFashion/ Sent my jacket to them today, wondering how it will turn out.

    Wonder how customizable the jackets are in terms of features (add shoulder gussets? change pocket configuration?) and in terms of measurements.

    FS Vanson c2 - 42 - black

    If everything fits perfect only the waist is too wide - I'd suggest sending it for alteration instead of buying a different size. Just my advice.
