    Simmons Bilt looks like they can get to around $700. But i need 23” sleeves, and they only go down to 25” in their drop down order form... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Best Inexpensive Custom Leather Jacket Maker

    Are either of them custom? They seem to only offer standard sizing. I’m a 41 chest 32 sleeve (like a 41 extra short suit jacket) so standard leather jackets usually fit me poorly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    A Thomas Cook “Dusty”. Don’t know much about it. I liked the color, shape, and it was my size, plus it’s all rabbit fur felt, so I snagged it off of Ebay. Anyone know about rabbit felt Thomas Cook hats? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What I’m getting from these pics is that the way to wear white bucks is with a time machine into another decade... ;) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Resting or Rotating Boots

    Sorry I missed your post earlier; i only saw the second one. I switched away from products that were wax based, animal based, or had urea in them and started using huberds and venetian because of the frequency with which i saw them mentioned by others in leather care discussions especially...

    Resting or Rotating Boots

    Never used it, but yes their stuff looks pretty similar to huberds offerings. I don’t see a version of the “grease” though, just a wax. I wouldn’t mind giving their line a try though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Resting or Rotating Boots

    I use venetian leather balm for prewear shine, huberds shoe grease for postwear spot conditioning, and huberds shoe grease or oil for monthly deep conditioning (the oil for deepest penetration). Once every 3 months i use an eye dropper to put a bead of huberds shoe oil into the welt. Both of...

    Resting or Rotating Boots

    Early this year i added up what i was spending on “cheap” throwaway shoes and decided i would be better served with some higher quality goodyear welted shoes or boots so i bought a pair of alden indys and ae higgin mills. With such a monetary investment and the intent of making them last as long...

    Hat Head

    I used to hate helmethead when i rode motorcycles... take off the helmet and you’ve got a mashed and messy sweaty head of hair. I don’t ride anymore but i wear hats and find a similar problem (though not as bad). So apart from shaving it off or using a greasy tin of dapper dan, what do you do...

    Cowboy Boots

    A local bootseller and cobbler (strangely trying to talk himself out of a sale) told me they use mexican leather which is made with too much urea so it doesn't last as long as it should. I bought them anyway. But I didn't keep them long because the last didn't break in well with my foot. But I...
