I would be proud if a manufacturer named one of their models after my idea. You really did great preparatory work with the "new Amsterdam", Greg "just" had to implement it, lol
The Classifieds section has also developed into a real treasure trove... for both sellers and buyers. In our niche a nice addition to this damn feebay...
@Marc mndt you have done impeccable preparatory work, the new "amsterdam" from FL is excellent. Thanks to you and other people in this forum who selflessly share their knowledge, many others* can only benefit, bravo.
That's really what I like about this forum, enthusiasts who are willing to...

This is for several reasons: Firstly, the ordering process for a custom-made jacket is extremely time-consuming and requires appropriate experience. Secondly, it takes a lot of...
I have nothing at all to complain about with this particular FiveStar Trojan. The leather is amazing, the workmanship is excellent and the jacket fits perfectly. Call it luck or the patient preparatory work in the ordering process... the forerunner I did, the Roadmaster from FiveStar was also a...
Good eye but the aren't new... from 2021 season. It's a water proofed West Ride Engineer made from Scotchguard Steerhide means the inlay leather is soaked in a 3M Scotch Guard, which is known for its waterproof properties. The midsole uses EVA (Ethylenvinylacetat) sole instead of leather to...
