    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Welllllll- that is how good ideas are born... It will be tough to find such a jacket in blue/white. I am wondering if Johnson Leathers or Regius can make you one. With midnight blue leather...that would be killer.

    Cool jacket, what is it? Looks vintage, but no vintage boxy cut.

    Do you guys wear leather jackets at home?

    I wore a couple of jackets I wanted stretched. First I got into a shower in one. Then I took it off, put on a couple of bulky sweatshirts, put the jacket back on, and wore it for like 12 hours. It stretched alright. My wife didn't say anything, just looked at me.

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    Whoever came up with the abbreviation F. HEAD obviously has poor knowledge of English connotations . Or maybe it is only my dirty mind. Reminds me of a sign found in one overseas hotel: "The manager personally passed all the water in this hotel". Lol. Sorry for being off topic, and possibly off...

    Cal CHP straight zip size 36-38ish

    Sweet Cal. I have an identical-sized one, also unlabeled, but the back is 24", so that eases the pain of shortness a bit. But shortness is the nature of the beast with those Cals. The front hits at half-buckle on mine, which is borderline okay. Shorter guys with shorter torsos will do extremely...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Of course I am posing in this Cal. No way I am wearing this beast in South Florida for any length of time. But...in five short weeks I will be heading to the EU, and taking my two Cals with me. They will join the Spiegel, the Wolf, the Kit Karson and the rest of my small collection over there...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Man, I am now nervous...lol. Hope it works for you. It is a marathon not a sprint, I wore it as underlayer for about 2 hours every day for about 6 months while biking. Perspiration, movement, abrasion, they all add up.

    Really short sleeves (22.4-in) on this beautiful SG, particularly combined with the sub-18-in shoulder width. Otherwise my size, lol.

    My fingernailnails were broken and bleeding, so out came the screwdriver. I scratched the copper button though...:(

    Crush On Retro

    Pretty funny video. The guy is entertaining. I once used a screwdriver to button my 22-oz Tanuki Yoroi indigo canvas pants, before the button holes worked themselves more forgiving. Good thing I am still here to tell the tale. Dangerous business. Lol.

    Crush On Retro

    As long as the cross-zip and the cross-fly are at the same angle, it should be okay. Alright, enough...:)

    Denim Jackets - New or Vintage

    Yes, 23-oz. Still pretty stiff. I don't know how to soften it, maybe beat it with a stick? But it is softer than when it was new, for sure.

    Denim Jackets - New or Vintage

    Wearing a denim jacket as underlayer if you want to get quicker/better defined fades makes sense - absent washing, fades are caused by abrasion, nothing else. The overlayer abrades the denim underlayer more than if the denim serves as an overlayer. In the first case the contact is constant, in...

    Denim Jackets - New or Vintage

    Thanks Ton. There is a story behind these fades. About a year ago I got interested in those Instagram denim fades competitions. I figured, what the hell, I am retired, I have a new denim jacket, lemme try to compete with those young whippersnappers. I had some questions to the organizers, but...

    Nah, @Leather Walker is the original Cal bro. He just does not post fit pics too often. I am just trying to learn from the best.
