    Microcracks all over Steerhide Aero jacket?

    I wouldn't hang a jacket, especially a jacket as heavy as an Aero on hangar in the closet. The weight would gradually pull it down, and could cause surface cracks to appear. Though, this isn't really an issue, only the top coat cracking a little. I'm sure you know, but a little bit of pecards...

    Hanover L.B Sheppard Longwings.

    I pick these beautiful shoes up for a great price the other day, they are in fantastic condition and fit extremely well. The seller sold them as 50's and they don't have the unappealing outer Longwing wrap seam the later ones have. They also sold them as cordovan, which would have been...

    Weather Proofing Goatskin

    Goatskin was chosen for the Navy jackets because of it waterproof nature. The top coat is much more water and salt resistant than horse or steer hide. If it's a new jacket then leave it, it'll be fine and with modern dyes be prettier water proof anyway. If it's a old one, give it a coating of...

    Video: Old Goat (hide) round-up. Actually a herd of Goats.

    The M-422a you have there I think is an H.L Block. Best way to check is have a look at the air holes perforated on the underarm guessed. If they're stitched not metal riveted, it's a Block.

    Rough Wear clothing- Rough In- MC Jacket-

    Very nice. Like the fold down wool collar liner on these jackets. Nice design as well. A civilian Rough-In labelled A-2 sold recently. Looked like a 1401-p and wondered about the label. Now I know.

    FA: Sears Hercules Half Belt Horsehide Jacket

    I own ones of these too, though think it dates to the late 40's. Again in almost perfect condition. If odd seeing the same jacket more than once in the same condition. And there was a size 40 for sale recently again in very good condition.

    Eastman Roughwear 1401 A-2 jacket - Holy Grail!

    Very nice indeed. The drape looks superb, and that really makes the fit in my opinion. Colour looks superb as well, and Eastmans new horsehide is great. Hope they return to doing some goatskin in the original makers as well. I've always been after one of their short lived Cable goatskins.

    RIP VLJ??

    I do hope it comes back, it's just a good place for true interest about jackets and the history of them rather than if it fits right. And apart from that people are very happy to help each other which I think lacks in age other places, had the feeling of community instead of common room...
