    My Himel Canuck

    It looks oustanding on you.Very nice jacket. Also it’s nice that you have room to put on a sweater.

    Here you go. I can’t do anything close to that with my other jackets. I can swim with my arms and the jackets stays in place(within a margin mind you).

    Field Leathers

    I have gotten wet from rain while riding my bike and also walking around and it doesn’t stain the leather. It gets wet absorbing everything, dries quick and then the grain shows up more. I got caught in the rain with my Darius too and it just shows more grain and creases.

    Vintage Outerwear: Threads of the Past

    Those Barnstormers are freaking amazing. The big one definitely fits better than the Hercules, specially because allows layering.

    Freewheelers Horsehide Tear - Repair Recommendations

    Hello and welcome to the lounge! That really hurts to see. It definitely looks like the leather ripped at the seam which is weird because supposedly that underarm gusset is there to prevent any stress on the shoulder/back in the armholes. My only recommendation is to not do anything to it...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Thanks! Yes, it's a bit risky with certain jackets to go too slim. I used these pictures and the measurements to get an idea of fit. Some of the Japanese stores put the Height/Weight/Size of the jacket on their Staff. This way one can imagine how it would fit them. I think this is a brilliant...

    Just WOW. That peacoat is amazing and it's very flattering on you. I think that not only the pattern from LW but also the Moosehide is responsible for the drape of the peacoat. This way any excess just hangs properly. I feel the same way with Derskin. The more you wear it the better it will...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Thank you both! It is here. I think I could have gotten away with the size 38 at the time I saw it but this one is a comfortable fit and I don’t find myself restricted as with the Himel Intrepid. The jacket can be buttoned all the way down and I can layer a waistcoat, wear a thick shirt or...

    Have I made a mistake? ( jacket on order )

    He also wears a LVC jacket in this video and and he makes everything look extra cool although i think most of the time he wears his jackets on the very short side but it's his thing. Very Ramones if you ask me.

    I do have one yes. It's the 50s-60s model and I see that Lewis put up a 30s-40s model: https://www.lewisleathers.com/productinfo.html?code=Universal-Racer-Mk2-1930s-40s I think the earlier one is cooler! It's a bit too long on me and too snug at the hem so it bunches up in the hips but...

    If they ever ban two stroke engine bikes in Barcelona I will die inside. I ride a Vespa PX150 from 2012 and It's the most fun ride to go around the city. People still ride Montesa Impala around here and Vespas too. @Carlos840 that Peacoat is just amazing!

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    This one should arrive tomorrow as I already paid custom duties yesterday. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping the fit is good after triple checking the measurements with different Japanese websites and photography of fit/size on staff of those stores.

    Dave Himel interview by Carl Murawski

    Do you enjoy living fast and stressed? :D I rather enjoyed listening to it while doing other stuff in my computer, didn't feel like it needed to go faster.

    That is exactly what you do when going bespoke in Tailoring. You don't go to an Italian tailor and ask for a structured drape suit and you don't go to Savile Row and ask for a Neapolitan suit with spalla camicia. Same with leather jacket makers. Just because someone doesn't fit into a certain...

    New Aero Bootlegger v. 2.0 CXL Brown

    Your minds are just dirty. That Hooch Hauler looks a bit too trim even with just a tee but the leather does look nice.
