    soaking Shinki horsehide in water

    Yeah I saw that and tried it with a smooth wooden sticks on my Lost Worlds (in addition to working out over with my hands some) and it worked a bit. Jacket is much more wearable now.

    Custom Dehen/Settlemeiers Skull sweater project

    It looks like an early American football/rugby team; from what I understand, skulls and pirate themes were common for rugby teams in the 1800s and into the 1900s. http://rugby-pioneers.blogs.com/rugby/2009/03/...

    Maybe piss off some mobsters, give them some baseball bats, and tell them not to hit the face?

    Source of the LW HH

    People say the LW HH is from Horween, but it's made to different specifications than CXL. My black Ryder has character, but not patina seeing as it's dyed through.

    Repro 1930s Sears Original Hercules jackets; whose is best?

    Thank you very much Handy; given how short and trim half belts fit on a lot of guys back then, the slimmer option seems better to me. I'll just have to think about that wait list now.

    Denim Jackets - New or Vintage

    Thank you; on the topic of denim jackets, I'm a big fan of the Sugar Cane type II. I also have a Levi's x Supreme (!) hickory stripe type I that is nice.

    Replacing pocket zipper?

    Hmm, how about cutting off the original slider, and the last ring of the talon chain and replacing that with a gold/brass jump ring which I can then superglue shut? It seems that a simple zipper change can make the Ryder go to the next level to this (courtesy of VEB):

    Replacing pocket zipper?

    I actually have half a mind to leave the original slider in place; has anyone ever cut off just the pull?

    Replacing pocket zipper?

    Hey all, I'm new here though I've lurked for the better part of a year or so and read plenty, so thanks for all the great info so far.
