    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I finally caught a glimpse of some brown undertone the other day on my jacket. I really dig Horween CXL. Your jacket is really starting to look better every time you post it.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Your jacket is finally MAYBE starting to look like it MIGHT be breaking in. lol. Starting to look good. Does your jacket have a hint of brown to it, or is it just the lighting?

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    ^^^ My first leather jacket, but in black. I don't remember the snaps on the belt loops though.

    Iron Heart / Simmons Bilt Blattwork Jacket

    Thanks for the response, buddy. That is so hard to believe. I ordered my 634s from SE and they took a little over a week to get hemmed and shipped to Cleveland. I thought that was pretty good. I am thinking about getting some 888s and I think SE is out of my size. I was thinking about going...

    Iron Heart / Simmons Bilt Blattwork Jacket

    @El Marro, Did you order your Iron Heart stuff from SE or did you go through the UK store?

    Anyone have any experience with Vanson motorcycle gloves?

    Thanks Yellow. That was the thread I was referring too. Lots of useful info.

    Anyone have any experience with Vanson motorcycle gloves?

    I have had a few pairs. I had the roper bones in deerskin and the gauntlet bones. The deerskin ropers were no match for a rottweiler puppy. lol. my rott chewed up my ropers so I ordered the gauntlet ones. The deer is very soft and flexible. I think they would hold up well in a slide, if ever...

    I'll be using your break in method, AGAIN, tomorrow. Your big storm is going to hit The Land tomorrow.

    Nate's Leather

    maybe we could have a thread for leather VIDEOS ONLY. Not sure if there are many out there. I think most of the jacket videos are from TMitchell.

    Show your graining

    Looks great Panda. Thanks for the bill of confidence. I think I will give out way before my CXL will. lol.

    Say it aint so, Joe. lol. All joking aside, you ROCK all your jackets (even the A-2). Thanks for all your knowledge and sound advice.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Your Horween looks a little different (no scratches and a little grainier). I'll try and pay attention to it and see how it ages. I know I will put this jacket to the test. Other than my Carhartt, it will be the only jacket I wear until warmer weather comes my way.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I went back and had a closer look. There are scuffs, scrapes, and scratches EVERYWHERE. lol. I just made a few new ones with my fingernail. Does your 6oz hide scratch easy? I am thinking it is just a traight of Horween CXL?

    <<< age appropriate jackets >>>

    Just look at our very own TMitchell. He looks very "age appropriate" in his "young guy only" cross zips. I think he looks a little out of place when he wears an "age appropriate" half belt. I couldn't even picture him wearing an A-2. lol. Motorcycle jackets just look "right" on him. All the...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I am not really sure DoubleH. I know it came with some nicks and scratches here and there when I received it. I have been wearing it every day, and I shoveled snow in it already. I am thinking CXL probably gets scuffed up more than other leathers, not really sure.

    <<< age appropriate jackets >>>

    ^^^ @Monitor, That guy is rockin his jacket, but, isn't it considered oversized? Looking at the shoulders, arms, and waist, most on this forum would say it is 1 or 2 sizes too big.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Looks like it is settling down ever-so-slightly. Looking good Mr.F. You and I received our jackets on the same day. I have been wearing mine as much as possible, also. I asked for the "blackest, smoothest, shiniest" hide from JL. I would say they picked a pretty good one for me. I was worried...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Awesome pic Will. Actually, my very first activity in my new motorcycle jacket wasn't riding a motorcycle, it was shoveling snow last weekend. lol. I used one of the Ton methods of breaking in a new leather jacket. On a serious note, all you East Coast guys be careful, shoveling heavy snow is...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I tend to side with El Marro. I prefer a little more room than too tight. I am always putting stuff in my pockets and tight jackets make that harder to do and more uncomfortable. Plus, nobody wants to see a "dad bod" in a tight anything. lol.
