    Chinese leather jackets

    The factory is near Qingdao. It used to be a German Garrison and later town . It is a confusing place to look at as a German .Like a German city after a Chinese invasion

    Field Leathers

    How long does it take to make one detailed jacket anyway? I can remember some saying that a machinist makes one jacket a day if everything goes right but I think they had the lining and cutting done by someone else . So can we calculate how many orders he has taken on to create these lead times...

    Is there anyway to repair this tear on a jacket? The leather is sheep.

    Before doing semi permanent patch work . Can you live with a shorter sleeve or longer cuffs maybe?

    Chinese leather jackets

    And they know about 5* leather and try to compete with them. I told them to stay away from the Indian and Chinese hides for their European market . I can't verify if some sellers are tricking you into thinking that it is horween. They mainly import horween ,"general" Italian leather , Leather...

    (Trigger warning) Are we giving too much credit for wabi-sabi/Japanese craftmanship reputation for uneven graining (especially in high visible area)?

    To me the uneven grain and it's appeal is funny . I feel like nowadays you can strike gold with a lot of things that used to be bad . Years ago there were TV shows about imitation cheese on frozen pizza and how to spot it .Now it is very desirable as vegan cheese . Fake leather used to be...

    Jacket Collecting - Ever ask why?

    Why collect jackets? To me you can't have enough long lasting practical items .I don't want duplicates but as someone with ADHD/autism spectrum I don't like to replace the things I get used too. Leather jackets are dependable and a lot of them are very practical in their design because of...

    Leather jacket sizing, too big or small?

    The hide looks like 5* steerhide lol . The only good thing are the riri zippers but those can be found on less expensive jackets too.

    Is acrylic topcoat necessary on newly dyed leather?

    It depends on the leather and how good the dye is absorbed. If you use the dye too concentrated then a lot of dye will dry on the surface and rub of . You can seal it with wax but waxes can also rub off . I think CXL can also rub on to light colored clothes
