    Peaky Blinders Newsboy

    Funny story, I walked into a pub today and here was around 15 Peaky style guys in there, all with vests and Newsboy caps on. I of course had my fedora on me so I looked like one of the Italians from the show. Quite amusing.

    Peaky Blinders Newsboy

    When I bike around in my city, Copenhagen, I notice that a lot of men are starting to wear caps, especially the Newsboy probably because it is featured so heavily in "Peaky Blinders". Am I the only one who thinks this will be just a fashion thing fora few years and not progress into more people...

    Raiders 'Hero' jacket, Wested Leather Co. bulge/crese?

    That's a great tip, mate! This it what it looks like just after opening the bottom hem. Like butter again.

    Raiders 'Hero' jacket, Wested Leather Co. bulge/crese?

    I just ripped the seem open and placed it on my table afterwards with some books on the crese. Gonna see tomorrow how it looks after sewing it back on again. Thanks for the tip!

    White tie tailor made in 1953.

    It says 1953, the picture is not the best. I agree that I might have the sleeves brought out just a tad but that is an easy thing to do. Matching trousers, yes. High waist as they should be. It gives me a sleek silhouette.

    Carlos840: Exactly! Have you considered getting the bottom hem adjusted, cut away the excess leather?

    I tried to find a shop here that sells Obenauf's or Pecards, no luck. Have to order and wait as always..

    White tie tailor made in 1953.

    I wanted to share something with you fine people in here. A few weeks ago I found this in a thriftstore. It is made by Alfred Alm, probably the finest men's tailor in Copenhagen in the 20th century (late 1920's to 1990) with the royalty, nobility and captains of industry as his clients. It was...

    Thanks, Seb. Is there anything that would make it a bit darker? I wouldn't mind that.

    I'll address it now then, before really starting to wear the jacket. What product do you guys use on your leather jacket? I am pretty lost as there are thousands of different ones and everybody has an opinion.

    Raiders 'Hero' jacket, Wested Leather Co. bulge/crese?

    Yeah, gonna adjust it in the bottom hem after a few months more wearing it. Thank you for the help!

    Raiders 'Hero' jacket, Wested Leather Co. bulge/crese?

    " If I’m totally honest sir without seeing it . I would imagine that either a new lining to accommodate the addition length of skin or re levelling of hem removing skin at the hem maybe . I have never seen this problem before so without playing with it on the tailors dummy I do not 100% know ...

    And no, don't use it in rain.

    Raiders 'Hero' jacket, Wested Leather Co. bulge/crese?

    I never wear a backpack with this jacket. I did contact Wested about it, she said the lining isn't flexible, so that could be it. I do have a friend who's swamped in work, but does a little leather work too besides hats. Maybe the easy fix is to add to the lining or simply open up the buttom...

    Sorry, my fault. I should have written bicycle. I sit in a upwards position, so I am not sure that this is the reason. Seb Lucas, here are a few pictures I managed to take before going to work. Outside, so much better lighting. I hope you can see what I mean.

    Army boots, Danish m/58. Which do you use?

    Raiders 'Hero' jacket, Wested Leather Co. bulge/crese?

    Sorry for the poor quality photos, only had my phone with me. Yes, you are correct. It's the only place it does that. I could be that I bike a lot with the jacket. I'll try and take some better pictures outside where the lighting is somewhat brighter althought it's fall here in Scandinavia...

    Raiders 'Hero' jacket, Wested Leather Co. bulge/crese?

    Hello out there! I know a lot of you has this jacket or variations of it. I tried to search the forum but couldn't find an answer to my problem. I got this jacket from a good friend for free as he never used it because he almost sleeps in his A2. It was in mint condition, as in used only a few...
