    Is a leather jacket & shorts a fashion faux pas?

    Viberg - any other horrible experiences?

    I'm not enough of a boot aficionado to judge loose vs acceptable grain, but for next time, I'd recommend checking out the Patina project app and searching for the leather your next shoe/boot purchase is made from. Can give a good idea of what to expect. Based on Guidi calf, there's only 3...

    Is a leather jacket & shorts a fashion faux pas?

    I just can't do jackets and shorts. No offense to other members who go out like that sometimes, but they're like chalk and cheese to me. If it's really too hot for jeans/pants, I don't see why I'd prefer to boil my upper body instead. In general, the only times I wear shorts outside are: 1) Gym...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    FWIW, I've tried contacting the seller multiple times here and on grailed for measurement pics + couple questions, but never heard back. Doesn't seem like they're actively monitoring the listing and last updated 3 yrs ago...

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

    My impression as of now is what have I gotten myself into :p

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

    Nice, I didn't realize you had one of these too. My wallet is already cursing them, but all is well after :D Thanks for the tip though, will definitely have to try that - already told him I need to get these damn buttons on. He said to come by to pick it up and his machinist will make sure I'm...

    5*’s unveiling of their new D-pocket concept, the Distant-pocket™ On a serious note, I hope they come through for you and make the adjustment.

    Anyone have an example of a black jacket with blue/navy stitching? It’s not quite “contrast” stitching… but curious to see how it looks. Thanks.

    STRUM LEATHER ?

    I agree... when you're in a client-facing area it's a different ball game. Got a friend in consulting who was gifted an Omega Seamaster from his dad and was proud to wear it. Wore it to a client meeting, and his manager told him not to wear it at the client site again because they complained...

    STRUM LEATHER ?

    Since you brought up Lost Worlds, look at the Ryder. I wear it to work and while I wouldn't call it formal, it doesn't give off moto vibes either.

    Star Glove Co by Lost Worlds is best ever

    No handwarmers. Just the D/lighter pocket combo up front.

    Star Glove Co by Lost Worlds is best ever

    Makes sense - wear in good health. I really do like the cuffed sleeves and how the bold D-pocket just takes up about 1/2 the torso. On a slightly unrelated note, I'm glad people are noticing the leather. Confused me when I saw past posts saying how lifeless and bland it is - which it's...

    Star Glove Co by Lost Worlds is best ever

    As @JMax put it in the Finds & Deals Thread: "Awesome. Beautiful. Amazing" - some seriously beefy lapels. How do you compare it to the Trojan?
