    I could pretty much wear this valstar and my aero and be covered for the next decade, but where’s the fun in that?

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thanks! Jacket is an aero highwayman. Belt is a hoof pick belt. My favorite casual belt maker is Narraganset Leathers: https://www.narragansettleathers.com/HoofPickBelt.html They make custom belts for a fantastic price.

    Fine Creek Leather

    This is a side bar, but I also find it ironic that criteria traditionally used to judge classic menswear (stitching neatness, etc.) is used to judge leather jackets that look absolutely better when they're aged, worn, and beat to hell (a FCL hallmark). Errant stitching never bothers me, because...

    Fine Creek Leather

    This is not directed at any one member, and I admit and acknowledge my FCL fandom, but I always find the debate about brand hierarchy determined by stitch count, grain matching, leather luster, dullness, weight, leather provenance, etc. totally academic. It can be fun to debate online, but when...

    Very nice. Foe my feet, the best fitting Chelsea I own are still my RM Williams Craftsman, but I’m digging the benzeins.

    I really liked the hide but it just felt a little too big all around. This forum has only increased my jacket-fit neurosis.

    Vintage 70's Lesco Leathers Black Jacket Size 44

    My first foray into vintage whiffed. This is a catch and release. Just looking to recoup what I paid after shipping/taxes from eBay. Per the listing this is a vintage 70's Lesco Leathers. It has gold talon zips and interesting side zips/snaps at the waist with 2 zipped pockets and zippered...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Nice. These are my first pair of shinki boots so the jury is still out, but my initial reaction is positive. It's already popping some grain and they are so light and flexible. The leather feels like it needs zero break in.

    Schott 673 brown waxy cowhide leather jacket size Large

    Friday bump. $320 shipped CONUS. This is a nice jacket but it's too long for my taste. Hide has a lotta interesting characteristics.
