    Replacement for Carhartt Chore Coat

    I feel your pain. I love my old Carhartt chore coats. I have two, my old one I bought 30 years ago and keep alive with grosgrain trim and patches on the frayed spots, and a newer one which I bought to replace the old one when I finally can't patch it any more. My first was the sand color which I...

    How does the color of Aero Cordovan FQHH age?

    Pics of my LHB. One new (hatless and wearing my wife's readers for some reason) and the second 3 years later. No color change. LHB compared to my brown Teamster. The Jackets are darker in person than in the photos and I find that that the Cordovan is slightly darker that the dark brown...

    How does the color of Aero Cordovan FQHH age?

    sshack. I had the same question before I bought my Aero Long Half Belt in cordovan. I was concerned because people called it purple and I didn't want to look like I was wearing a jacket made out of the hide of Barney the dinosaur.You use the term purple but Aero's cordovan is actually a wine or...

    9mm or 45cal

    45 vs 9 mm I agree with jkingrph. I prefer my .45 ACP. Start with a big hole and don't relay on expansion. Aggressors are stopped three ways. 1) Clip the wires from the brain to the muscles so the bad guy can't move. This is your fanciful and very uncommon "One shot stop." as seen in the...

    Flame resistance of leather?

    I weld. Welders wear leathers. Boots (no laces), chinks, aprons, gloves, arm sleaves, shoulder covers, all leather. Not often exposed to direct flame but sparks and heat. I also wore a Carhart chore coat because Carhatts are thick 100 % cotton and have a tight weave. I've heard that compressed...
