    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I'm afraid you're wrong about the length at the front bro. With all due respect to the belt police, that length you have is optimum for a HWM. Re the shoulders that's harder for me to judge without a pic of it zipped up. But if you say they're a bit tight then i guess they must be. Perhaps more...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Please explain how the fit is short of perfect. In the pics it looks absolutely sublime and I cannot recall a HWM fitting anyone better,

    Restoring an old banger. Can it be done?

    Thanks for the input fellas. I would pounce right now but I'm concerned that bit in the bottom right corner could be a tear. English is not the seller's native tongue and when I asked about it he just referred me to this photo..

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    It's the weights I'm keen to know about. I gather the russet and black HH comes in more than one weight? Do they have any leather that's sub 3oz?

    What are the LW leather options,? It's the lighter ones that might interest me

    Restoring an old banger. Can it be done?

    What is the protocol for bringing one back from the dead? Can this type of 'patina' be undone? With a very old jacket I would want to wash it. Presumably it might then need some conditioning? Is redying it a good option? And if so when and how? It would be super cool if anyone who's done...

    How to age (or destroy?) a CXL FQHH Highwayman (pic heavy)

    That's what I'm saying! Yours has too much colour left. Better get back on the job and show that mother who's boss

    How to age (or destroy?) a CXL FQHH Highwayman (pic heavy)

    As it is now it's still mostly black, but with lots of worn bits where the colour is gone. I think were this reversed it would be an improvement. Would make the '''nipples' less prominent too

    How to age (or destroy?) a CXL FQHH Highwayman (pic heavy)

    Bravo. I totally applaud the intent behind this project. But looking at it now I think we can all see why inside pockets of this configuration in leather as thick as this are not a good idea. My personal 2 bob here is that you now need to find a way to trash it some more because having gone...

    naked HH Good Wear Arcadia

    Not a problem @ton312 And I can already feel that Carrie is going to love this order.. All you'll need is an aero premier seabiscuit (I think that's the closest collar) with a 30s HB back, with CR shoulder gussets, BR chest pockets, and Hercules piping on the front. You could ask them to taper...

    Subjective personal opinions can be difficult to reconcile, and sometimes downright bewildering

    When I started out buying vintage repros my tendency was to look to impose my personal subjective opinion onto the maker, and to invariably ask for more length. This could be justified by my height (taller than average) and my perpensity for cladding myself in awful modern low rise trousers...

    WTB: 20+ oz denim trucker jacket, M/L (IH or something...)

    Or you could sack IH off and just buy some heavyweight selvage denim yourself. Then all you need to do is find a maker, and once you find that guy the options open right up, far beyond the world of type 3s

    Is that the DD @ProteinNerd ? Nice length on you I'd say. Little bit shorter than the others, right?

    Sorry Teenie. But you know, you do need to think about that Arcadia. Like what leather are you getting it in, what colour.. etc etc

    Not sure you'll be better off for knowing this... but that's an Arcadia by Good Wear. How tall are you by the way? I may just have something perfect for you to lose in July

    naked HH Good Wear Arcadia

    It's a good question. I've got a natural leather bag that's been rained on a few times and that's fine. I am sure water doesn't kill, but equally I feel like it probably ain't good. Perhaps an expert could chime in? Sent from my ONEPLUS A5010 using Tapatalk
