    Field Jackets on Derek Does.

    so perhaps secure it with a tiny drop of thread locker inside the cup or perhaps elastic clear superglue, or solder it from the inside, otherwise it may fall when you sit and the lower part of the jacket moves around

    Fine Creek Leather

    i like the hemline, but I always like front drop and scalloped back you never need to worry about the jacket's exact length with hemline like that and very easy to wear it over untucked shirt , it just need to be shorter and more shaped along the torso

    Pants you wear with your leather jackets

    navy calls it seafarers, women call it full length culottes, late 90 teens called it rave pants just 1 and the same old mofo with many aliases exactly like satan :p:D:p:D

    Rainbow Country Single Rider

    err, there is no center zip jacket to be worn open that can replace a crosszip in term of coolness, center zip can look cool worn half zipped but worn open it would look a bit boring unless you combo it with a vest or something.

    Chest size vs Jacket size?

    about a fist gap, if the jacket has inner pocket or there is something on your shirt's pocket you need to reach it should be possible to slide in your hand and making a fist grabbing the item out with the jacket half zipped, in number I think about 10 cm (4") more from my chest size.

    FIVESTAR LEATHER CONTACTS

    fit is really subjective, I see the jacket fits cool, perhaps the shoulder can be wider a bit, and the the waist tapered a bit, but if a jacket fits cool on the mirror I could care less about a bit bigger here and there as long as it zips

    best leather pants under $300 used

    How do leather trousers works? do you wear them over leggings or longjohn kind of underpants? I wash my jeans occasionally like once or twice a year but I can't imagine a pair of pants I can't never wash for years

    Field Jackets on Derek Does.

    I think sneaker sole repair glue is another type of adhesive that could withstand velcro action (intentional pulling action) and maintain flexibility. the overnite araldite 2 components epoxy that stay flexible is also another alternative, but yeah they are all permanent and may make stronger...

    Field Jackets on Derek Does.

    BTW japanese are really into this field coat, and keep making tons of in depth fashion analysis videos about it , like this one I think they can be obsessive about certain thing, perhaps the same with japanese denim and other americana

    Lightweight Jacket Options - California Weather

    to block the prickling heat of the sun exposure out, leather is more effective than denim doing that, and if not tight fit and you wear it open it just like wearing a leather sandal over your feet, air pass through the front and come out on the back through different routes cooling down back and...

    Velcro Recommendation for G-1

    your patched one looks cool, if the patch is just something the manufacturer put on and won't get you trouble wearing it, I think I prefer the patched version based on look alone, I think velcro would make it look tacky, I've yet to see velcro+leather that looks good together outside of perf...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I've been wearing this repro field jacket everyday, I hope to get back to leather and denim way again someday, but this light cotton coat with 4 cargo pockets in what currently summer climate feels really ideal, and I have a goal to fade it or something before rainy season kicks in.
