    Wind Flap Removal

    I agree. From my eyes it doesn’t look bad though I do understand what you are saying, streamlining. I’ve grown to like them on certain jackets like the Langlitz Crecent, Vanson Comet, Freewheelers Speedmaster, Schott 641xx.

    Lewis Leathers , Good quality?

    It looks like they make a very movable jacket and few members have posted pictures with their arms raised and the hem barely moved up. That’s what caught my attention. All without underarm football or shoulder gussets. My jacket surely doesn’t work that way, it’s f I lift my arms it turns...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    This might have already been posted and the price is clearly reaching @ $1,200 considering similar options go for $300-$500 all the time but I guess people have the right to charge what they want...

    ID For This Cafe Racer Jacket

    Yes!!! 100% scam This is the real site https://www.coachoutlet.com I might add that Coach jackets used to fit ok and were higher quality for a lower tier designer brand, I had a Coach jacket from high school that was made in NY from calfskin. Now they fit like a box. I’m embarrassed to post...

    ID For This Cafe Racer Jacket

    Might be hard to find the exact maker because if it is a mall brand jacket or maybe one of the 100’s of random jacket brands then they switch styles so often. If you are into that, check out Nordstrom Rack which stock stuff like that with a liberal return policy if it doesn’t fit. This forum...

    NEW TAHURA BOOTS: NEW IN BOX, 8" CAPTOELARI, HORWEEN NATURAL HORSEHIDE - SIZE 10

    I was afraid of that, I am a 9.5 in Whites MP last. This is a great deal for someone though, $250 is barely more than a pair of Thursday Boots so I hope they move quickly for you. People seem pleased with this brand on the GoodYearWelt forums

    NEW TAHURA BOOTS: NEW IN BOX, 8" CAPTOELARI, HORWEEN NATURAL HORSEHIDE - SIZE 10

    1930s Vintage Californian goatskin-36/38

    I always watch Terry’s YouTube channel and keep an eye out hoping he will post something that fit me out of that massive collection. With my first custom under my belt and 2 more on the way and not enough cold weather in my state to wear a huge collection. I firmly see my future in vintage...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I think because the Mulholland fetches high used sale prices that some think that all Freewheelers are a safe investment but sold listings tell a different tale. I think I learned from here that a safer choice if you plan to sell your jacket after a few seasons is to buy vintage, if you get a...

    Double Helix Works?

    I too have a couple cool #3 talon NOS 1930’s zippers and Greg said he’d be reluctant to use them on leather but I might try to place them as a chest pocket zipper more as decoration because I probably wouldn’t store anything in a chest pocket if you know what I mean. If you are going through...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I always thought it was a great jacket before but this alteration in f%@&ing amazing. Well done honestly, night and day difference.

    Double Helix Works?

    The shiny leather is interesting to me now, I used to think it looked cheap and matte was the way to go but now I’m curious since seeing that shiny car coat and the shiny pony on the Field leather instagram. So many leathers, so little money

    Double Helix Works?

    Grain looks great. How heavy compared to your CXL jackets? What caught my attention when reading their website was their use and descriptions of the different leather varieties they use with different jacket models. Seems like a nice choice than just using a standard 1.2 mm horsehide for...

    Field Leathers

    Is Badalassi out of the picture? I wish it was easier for Greg to get different shades of Shinki, is it relationships with the tannery? I ask because Himel bros probably has a similar output of jackets considering they both have one person doing the stitching but they have those 3 shades of...

    Matchless leather shirt jacket?

    If you like the fit then why not but when spending that much money I try to think ahead 10 years and imagine if I will still like the style. Even some fashion style jackets stand the test of time

    Which leather jacket fits me better? Please help!

    It really fits all the way around so I wouldn’t worry about it, it might be that I’m biased to like the straight rear on this particular jacket style. But the front of the straight hem definitely doesn’t fit as well as the left which fits your midsection might trimmer. You can factor in whether...

    Field Leathers

    There was some talk about the pigment pony a while ago and I’m inclined to go with his opinion given the number of jackets that have passed his hands. Just expect a great deal of aging if scratched. So it depends on what you like.
