    aniline vs. semi-aniline shinki

    I love my semi aniline from Himel. The grain is gorgeous and as mentioned by Jin431, provides some extra protection. It is my favourite of all HH.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Good post! I had a thought- what if Stu died tomorrow? No more Lost World jackets. How tight would owners hold onto their LW jackets then? That is very interesting. Is this how LW’s obtains such durability?

    The Real McCoys 30's Sport/Mobster black leather jacket review (with pictures)

    I love these gussets. More shoulder than underarm. My son's LW Roadhouse and my Langlitz have the underarm "football" type gussets and I really like them for mobility. The Mulholland has gussets like this RM, another great design I love. Between the two designs I do not even have a preference.

    Leather jacket: awkward question

    Washing machine. Gentle cycle. Cold water. Detergent. Air dry, on thick dry towels. Turning every few hours. Replace with new dry towels as needed. Place a few fans blowing to speed drying. 48 hours. Then condition to replenish. I have done this with a few jackets. Worked well for...

    Role Club "Boots by Brian" Engineer horsehide

    I think it is worth a try. Why not see if Brian will facetime? I sent in my measurements after checking many times and I too was concerned about mistakes on my end. That is normal given the cost. I did conclude that my boots were not as trim/tight-fitting as I would like so I did a few things...

    Role Club "Boots by Brian" Engineer horsehide

    I went with the shorter woodsman heel. I debated going with the taller one but am happy I settled with the shorter version. I never had any discussion about the type of horsehide. I just went with what I believe he had at the time. It looks like there is a choice now. If there was a choice...

    Experience in Freewheelers leather sizing?

    One thing I have learned in this game is everyone must find a jacket that fits his individual physique. I have seen many jackets I would love to fit but 1 in 7, very roughly speaking, would even come close to fitting. I believe most of us are in the same boat. Find that awesome fit! Quite the...

    Experience in Freewheelers leather sizing?

    I have a Mulholland size 44. My chest is 43-44 and I have relatively broad shoulders. The 44 is a perfect comfortable fit. The Mulholland style fits slightly larger than other “slim fitting” Japanese brands.
