    Van Page Brown @HoosierDaddy, In Memoriam

    I came here looking for this as Van's passing was posted in VLJ. Van was one of the OG guys I met here and on VLJ - maybe even COW too. We had our share of online jabbing, and while he was a crusty fella, we liked each other well enough for two head strong stangers. When I heard of his wife's...

    New Gustin leather Café Racer jackets

    Length in back is almost long enough, front looks awful. My 2¢

    Aero Shackleton Explored

    I was "this close" but the pit numbers scared me off after @SpeedRcrX told me hers matched her jackets. Based on that, it would be at least 2" too small in the pits for me. Bummed, but I just don't know about measuring a leather vest vs leather jacket...

    Washing my G-1?

    I did and regretted it. Goat G-1. It did shrink and get stiffer. Just my 2¢, it always ends in this variety of replies: Yes No You'll have to decide...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Like I said above, me too! But when you have them on and zipped, you just don't see 'em. And at the end of the day - when boots are a b*tch to take off, it helps a lot!

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    It's the right choice, @ton312. As nice as it is, if you sit down, you'll likely become an IED. It IS a good example tho on how the blue hides will look, post-barfights.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    @Dickie Teenie - just conversing with Brian the Bootmaker over some custom boots. The Role's are epic. @red devil - it IS a rabbit hole to be sure, but here, leather jacket have such a short period each year that I've gone over to acquiring other gear like boots, belts, etc. Same leather...

    Lost Worlds Beck/Leathertogs Pics, Anyone?

    Good stuff Wilbur! I still lament the loss of the elk hide JLP Jacket I bought from you. At the time, I was at my largest, and had to flip it. I could wear it today and I am SO bummed I ever sold it...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Bob, they go with anything really. Already took 'em out with the Ventura and an old civi A-2. Kids (20's somethings) all liked 'em with my selvedge jeans so I think they're fairly versatile. Almost hipster looking, but not quite. I think the thing that shocked me most was getting a zipped...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    It's funny - the weight. Over Xmas break, we went to a local holiday light show outdoors. I wore my Aero 50's HBD in heavy FQHH. I gave it to one of the women, and she about fell over. I think that thing weighs between 11-12 lbs! :)

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    They're already here. It would be impossible to discuss this without getting political, so it's best to end it now. The US sadly is a sinking ship in many ways. Fewer have more, more have less. Not a recipe for success here.

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Nail on the head. What I find highly offensive - and why I posted this - is that some think that it's because people are "racist". It's the usual lazy reply to a very complicated issue. If all the goods we buy from South Korea came from the North, I'd never buy them. I try hard to not do...
