    Cannabis smell. How to get rid of?

    I've seen in some auto laundry shops that there are now Ozone machines with horizontal loading. I might give it a try with some old clothes I have.

    Fine Creek Virginia Beach-Shrink to Fit-

    Well it certainly looks better now shorter. I always thought it was pretty long to begin with. Shame about that topcoat flaking though. I advise against dryer. I've done it twice but would never do it again unless it's like 5 min at the top and then wear it. One of the leather jackets became...

    Vegecow Lewis Leathers quality

    I don't want logos on my clothes, period (The only exception could be maybe the Levi's one but those you can't get without it, it's their trademark) I'm not a walking advertisement banner and I will only promote what I want, when I want to whom I want. I understand some people wanting to be...

    What Is the Allure of Japanese Leather Jackets?

    For me it's as simple as Eastman having the only real deal in their possession so the pattern is what it is. Anyone making a repro of an A-1 without an original in their hand isn't going to be able to make it as accurate. At that level of quality to be honest none of the jackets is going to...

    What Is the Allure of Japanese Leather Jackets?

    I'd say that for example there are certain makers that arguably make the best of "X" jacket. For example Eastman has the only real example of an A-1 as far as they tell us. So obviously their A-1 jackets are probably the best out there because they have the real one as a starter.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I had to throw away a jacker because it reeked, nothing could remove the smell of rancid, smoke, etc it was nasty. When trying to clean up the lining and then the leather separately it started showing mold everywhere. Green/white mold all over the jacket. The fit was amazing. A german black...

    My Thedi Adventure

    Thanks for sharing your adventure in Greece. You did well letting the master do his job. what a great fit on the jacket and it looks great. I think it looks better than some your other stuff that wasn’t made for you.

    What’s your favorite leather for a jacket?

    In my experience it can be thick too. In fact the ones I have from Himel or SJC are thicker than you would imagine and quite stiff. I've handled others which were thinner on an Eastman A2 for example.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thanks! He just released a new line of outerwear with belted backs, brown, black, wool/leather,etc. I thought the split back would bother me but I don’t mind it. the goatskin is substantial and it looks like it will develop character.

    Oh then no wonder. Your perimeter is around 40,6" so there's barely any difference between you two in that regard. You must like your jackets snug.

    But almost all of the jackets are size 40 with 21.5" pit to pit and he has a 41" chest. I thought you wore a 38. If only the green one was a 38!
