    Schott 60's Cafe Racer Review - The Unsung Hero

    Great jacket! imho, nothing beats the classic and minimalistic style of a two pocket CR jacket with an one piece back! They just look so clean. I‘m just wondering, since you said the jacket is somewhere in Vanson Competition leather range and you call it your best day to day jacket, doesn‘t...

    Found the „do it all jacket“ Lewis Leather Corsair No. 60

    I managed to settle my doubts regarding the length by stopping to compare the jacket with my other leather jackets and rather compare it to a denim jacket. Those a short aswell. the Corsair is supposed to be short because it‘s an aviator styled jacket. You wouldn‘t want a longer jacket sitting...

    Found the „do it all jacket“ Lewis Leather Corsair No. 60

    The leather is already very soft so there is no breaking in phase like with Aero‘s FQHH. But because of the tanning process, the leather pretty much stays the same. From what I‘ve read that‘s very typical for Lewis‘ cowhide. So you won‘t see much of a difference, especially not after a couple...

    Eastman Erich Hartmann - Whaddya think?

    hi Jacques, I've been in the same situation you are. I've been looking for a "do it all jacket" like you described. In the end I bought a Lewis No. 60 Corsair that fits all my needs even though I probably wouldn't wear it in mid july. This might help you...

    Merino/Wool Pullover

    Hi guys, I'm looking for heavy wool/merino pullovers to wear underneath a leather jacket but practical enough for hunting. Classic colours (black, navy, grey, green, brown) and no motiv. I use to call them "Scottish fishermen's pullovers". They should be made in Scotland, England or Germany. I...

    Over 50 wearing leather jackets

    with all due respect, why would anybody care about what these two say? especially if you are over 50 you are probably confident enough to wear whatever you like

    Red Wing Engineer 2268 steel toe boots on a motorcycle

    Thanks for your opinions, I'll just have to try whether I feel comfortable riding in steel toe boots or not, I guess. @AeroFan_07 surely I'll do that. That's just what I did after I got my drivers license and I actually participate once in a while in basic rider courses since I got my...

    Red Wing Engineer 2268 steel toe boots on a motorcycle

    Hi guys, as I'm not an experienced motorcyclist I need your opinion on a boot topic. After graduating from university next year, I plan to buy a motorcycle (probably a kawasaki z900 RS or a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650). Just something that looks like a 70s bike and looks great with a CR...

    What do you wear under your jacket?

    if you have some space under your jacket, fjällräven sörmland crew sweaters look great under a well worn in jacket. if you prefer a snug fit, try cashmere pullovers, they'll keep you warm look slim. denim shirts are also always a good choice if they fit to your jacket collar. I like cafe racer...

    "exit jacket"

    Hi guys, I've been wondering, did anyone of you ever reach the point where you said "that's gonna be my last jacket" and sticked to it? When I ordered my first jacket I thought I'd finally have a jacket that would please all my needs since no stock or designer jacket ever felt like the one. Now...

    Found the „do it all jacket“ Lewis Leather Corsair No. 60

    well thanks for your kind words chaps! I already felt very comfortable and cool in the jacket but your approval erased the last bit of doubt whether the jacket might be a tick short

    Found the „do it all jacket“ Lewis Leather Corsair No. 60

    3 oz I guess regarding the thickness of about 1,2mm. Somewhere inbetween goathide and Aeros 4.0oz FQHH which is quite a good compromise in my opinion. I think there's a post from Carlos where he weighed his LL jackets and compared them to his Aeros

    Found the „do it all jacket“ Lewis Leather Corsair No. 60

    Hi guys, a half a year ago I started a thread about finding the perfect „do it all jacket“, I was looking for a casual rather clean jacket that could be worn with a t-shirt and jeans but that should also be able to be dressed up with a nice shirt and a pair of chinos. That‘s the old post...
