    do you dare to commit to wear a single jacket for a month through all your waking hours?

    12 hours/day is probably a bit much unless I use it for pajamas, but I could still put decent wear on a jacket by wearing it around 4-6 hours/day. It will probably need airing out and cleaning if you live in it for a month. But the leather will certainly have broken in considerably by the time...

    One of a kind custom galaga necktie

    OK, so this might not be so period accurate, but we had wide novelty ties in the 40s and 50s, did we not? So in that spirit... I created this design in homage of one of the greatest video games of all time, Galaga. If you grew up in the 70s/80s, you no doubt played this when it was new, and...

    Vanson Associates CR project

    It looks almost black to me. I think it came out OK, but I would have preferred to keep it original. That tan was nice. But as long as you're wearing it more, that's what counts.

    This is CXL FQHH, I'm pretty sure that both Chromexcel and Vicenza Hh are both from the front quarter of the animal.

    Cordovan Sheene

    I'm very busy getting ready for a conference this week, so I hope you can hold out a while. I have a few other photos with different white balance settings, none of which are accurate, but man would I like them to be. This last one is actually fairly close. But it's actually almost kinda...

    Cordovan Sheene

    I bought big7's Sheene from the classifieds. It fits perfectly. I don't have any fit pics right now. I've been playing with my phone camera settings to get the best color accuracy, and these are the closest I've been able to get, at least as the color is replicated on the screen of my phone...

    I'm afraid so. You'll have to sell them all and start over.

    Interesting that the back is straight at the hem, rather than rounded. Did you specify that?

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I clearly hear it screaming "Ton, please sell!" in a falsetto that sounds a lot like my voice.

    Why Snap Buttons On Leather Jacket?

    Snaps that don't stay snapped are annoying, and yes they can be replaced. I wouldn't try to replace them with buttons, because that would be a lot of work and probably won't turn out well. You'd just need a number of better quality snaps and a crimping tool, and the nerve to pry apart the old ones.

    How Long For A Leather Jacket To Start To Get Soft?

    I don't understand why anyone wants to accelerate the process, when they can savor it instead.

    It reminds me of my Natal Type III vest. The buffalo nickel snaps are a bit silly, but it's a great vest for wearing over a type-3 denim jacket.
