    Over 50 wearing leather jackets

    No actually made in Tijuana. There are some amazing custom shops in TJ. I would be more than happy to recommend some to people. I did go to Leon last June for a 3 day shopping binge. I found some really nice things but I had to dig deep to find it. Lots of Chinese junk and fake leather these...

    Over 50 wearing leather jackets

    It all depends how you wear it. I would also like to say that some guys choose horrible leather jackets. Ie. The flimsy long leather trench coat. There are many incredibly attractive leather jackets out there for different occasions. It isn't fair to lump them in one sum. Suede is super elegant...

    Help sizing Alpha M-65

    Yes I need a jacket in those measurements or close to it. I know my measurements very well. I prefer doing it this way than by choosing a random chest size. This method is more exact. Thanks

    Help sizing Alpha M-65

    Yes I plan on purchasing the optional liner. I read ""somewhere" that you should still purchase your normal size and that the liner was already figured into the size of the garment. The problem is the Alpha Website has a fit finder only. I do see size charts online but nothing on the Alpha...

    The Cons of Owning Too Many Hats/ MOVING !

    Too big for my hats. 7 1/2 I will probably keep one bin worth. We all know we can never use every hat we purchase. 1st world problems.

    The Cons of Owning Too Many Hats/ MOVING !

    Well after carefully packing and stacking my hats into hard plastic bins I notice some of my brims are bent or curved. I am half debating getting rid of several hats or save them and bend them back into shape as best as I can ? The funny thing is the cheaper hats hold up better !

    Buzz Cuts ?

    Thanks. I would have but not during Covid. The whole premise of doing the buzzcut was to be self sufficient. Kind of like growing your own food....but hair. Besides Covid I would love to not need a barber in the future. That would simplify things greatly.

    Buzz Cuts ?

    When you do this do you find just those two blades blend the hair sufficiently ? I have watched videos where they make you dizzy opening and closing the fade lever on the clipper so many times. I totally loose track. What I want to do is grow my top hair just enough so I can comb it forward and...

    Buzz Cuts ?

    Thank You so much for taking the time to respond. I have been pondering that area for two weeks now. It definitely shows more with certain lighting and it might be a little thinner than my side and back hair BUT in other angles and lighting I do not notice the scalp showing. Maybe I just need...

    Buzz Cuts ?

    Here is my scalp showing on top . This is why I think I need to try a 2 at some point or I need to do scissor over comb on top. Still deciding. I really like this look but the thinning is concerning. Thoughts ?

    Carry on soldier. I am right behind you.

    Buzz Cuts ?

    This is me pre buzz cut A different look for sure. Even between a 2 and 3 is a big difference. I recommend starting with a 4 and working your way down....slowly.

    Buzz Cuts ?

    I researched the guard numbers thoroughly before choosing 3 1/2. I actually have a 3 3/4 attachment that I have not tried yet. I figure I will try that before going down to a 2 if need be. The changes in blades can be dramatic if you aren't used to them. Agree that thinning or balding hair...

    Buzz Cuts ?

    I won't be going to one of those for a while. One barber infected 90+ people...lots of stories along those lines.

    BUZZ CUTS ?

    I thought it would be fun to do a Covid-19 BUZZ CUT thread. I had no choice but to take clippers to my head. During the process I found out I have thinning hair on top. Yikes ! but that explains why the center portion of my hair was dry and of bad quality hair. I am glad to get rid of it. The...
