    Langlitz Cascade Unfit compared with TWC at last and Real Mccoys Buco J-31

    Wow, that´s an unbelievable price! Thats is more than most makers charge for a whole HH jacket. That´s a pretty blunt way of saying that they don´t want to do horse, right?!

    Langlitz Cascade Unfit compared with TWC at last and Real Mccoys Buco J-31

    I do get your disappointment. It´s just a jacket, but with all that time and effort invested in it and then being shown the door is quite the downer. What I don´t get is why Langlitz seem unwilling to a remake. They can at least retain their profit-margin once (as opposed to no revenue AND...

    Simmons Bilt Tailgunner

    Looks perfect! Good choice with the leather. Visually absolutely super! I went with the "Milam" hide, also veg-tanned but much duller in appearance. Enjoy!

    Please post fit picture, or I am afraid we can´t let this one count...;)

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thank you! Consensus seems to be that the jacket fits "true to size", but I always thought I would need to size up one to prevent that skintight, very short-torsoed look I see so often.

    Men Swimwear

    Sunspel has some nice ones off-and-on. Ripa Ripa is not on the same level, but they make nice 60ish inspired "Amalfi-coast" style swimwear.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Damn, that’s nice! I am telling myself since forever that I don’t need this one. And yet I keep coming back to it. What size did you get?

    Johnny depp unfinished raw natural leather jacket from crock of gold.

    I think that would be right. For the movie, Depp would have gotten a few versions of the jacket, fit for the specific scenes (cut more tight fitting for „posing“, more loose for action or motion scenes; lined/unlined). I am sure, the jacket pictured is one of these. Daniel Graig is also known...

    Vanson! Vanson! Vanson!

    Visually a great score. Yeah, maybe a hair long, but nothing really noteworthy. I like your description of it being rather extreme for a casual jacket. Exactly the reason I am holding on to mine although it’s a bit on the snug side (believe me, that doesn’t help with this pattern and Lay-out as...

    Legendary USA Black Stallion is Back

    I am now convinced the jackets are made by Stu. Legendary just got NJ and NY mixed up. Their reluctance to disclose the maker is only due to them being afraid (and rightfully so) that nobody will buy it for lack of manliness. On a more serious note: the jacket has gotten from hero to zero in...

    I Need Help! Natural Veg Tanned Jacket

    I don´t really understand all the critical comments. SB did all they can to disclose and discuss the issue with you, so ultimately it´s your call now. Based on the photos, I´d say: Do take it and enjoy. I think the jacket looks great. The uneven grain is obvious but wouldn´t deter me. For...

    Aero Seven fit check

    You have read it before: If it feels too tight, it IS too tight. The BR pattern has super high armholes. This combined with ever so narrow shoulders really is game-over as the sleeves won´t ride up to get more shoulder room. No amount of break-in is going to help with that. Sleeves are a...

    Aero Highwayman weight advice

    That´s in fact the "Zip-Sleeve Highwayman". The standard version doesn´t come with a front yoke but with a pocket in the upper left panel. There is also the "59er Highwayman" that comes with a straight front yoke. You may want to look at the respective pictures on Aero´s website to get the...

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

    Hard to tell with the resolution of the photo, but it sure looks like LLs horsehide to me. AFAIK, horsehide is LLs standard option on the ‘Dominator‘, so I don’t know about other options being ‚more expensive‘. Anyway: absolute classic, so I hope you do like it.

    You know what… (I told you, I’d be spamming you with that thing. If it gets too much, just let me know. I won’t stop, but at least I will feel bad about it ;)).

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    We Well, G1/A2 styles get a lot of love from me personally. Looks and fits well. Would like to see some more in natural light , once you get the chance. I just moved house myself four weeks ago, so I feel you. It’s always worth it in the end.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Not so much wearing but rather posing. Too little time and really too warm. First pictures is a Vanson ‚B‘ in Firenze leather just received from @Canuck Panda. I am really glad, I gave Vanson a second try. The jacket is a tank, but the leather is soft and pliable. Big thanks to Tom for a...
