    RMC Mobster vs FW Mulholland. Who wins in a bare knuckle brawl?

    I did a pic comparison. The Mobster is just missing the badge holder. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/from-lawman-to-outlaw-what-have-mccoys-done-with-this-jacket.106692/

    RMC Mobster vs FW Mulholland. Who wins in a bare knuckle brawl?

    Yes, the Mobster is a straight up copy of an early version Californian. You are right that one can find quite a few of the similar later versions most likely with side laces but not necessarily the early one. The Muholland is more a tweaked versions of the CHPs and Higwayman I am not sure if...

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

    Thank you. I know a few Japanese workshops that do repair. Re-Sew at Schott Grand store for one but I don't think I would bother. There are cracks all along the shoulder and collar. The HH on the Sugar Cane feels very similar to my the Few badalassi. I am very happy with it since it fits...

    Fashion brands leather jackets: Is it worth the price tag?

    I still have the leather perfecto vest from DKNY's first season of menswear. Bought it back in the early 90s as said the first season they lauched the men's collection. It was made in USA. The same model in distressed leather in second season was already made in China.:rolleyes:

    What Is the Allure of Japanese Leather Jackets?

    I have always suspected what RM did with the J-24 later version is to copy the contemporary Lewis Leather Lightning cut that became popular around that time in the fashion world. I just measured my LL Europa (regular not T cut) and it has barely a 2-inch drop (ptp 19, waist 17) chest to waist...

    What Is the Allure of Japanese Leather Jackets?

    FW's drop is more significant. Carlos look great in his FWs.

    Help me date this MA-1 jacket please!

    It is a civilian jacket. Usually only worth dating if it is military issued. I think all the civilian Alpha MA-1 has the same stock and contract number so cannot use that to date.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Nice looking boots. I would categorise these as semi-dress though. I remember when I was living in the UK, I had trouble finding OK quality sleek cowboy and harness boots. I had a couple of buckle boots and managed to find a pair of Mexican made harness by a company called Adams I think. I...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    The front looks pretty classic Cal leather but the back darts look homemade. Custom? Who would choose darts like these over the six panels? Not that darts are bad but these are horrible.

    High Notch Leathers (House brand) Izumiya clothing store (Retail store)

    I would not be surprised when there is a higher demand than supply. I have heard talk about shell cordovan from the famous tannery that you either get whatever colour they give you or you have to reach a certain volume i.e. you get a small batch of the colour you want when you buy a bunch of...

    Your all time fav Leather Jacket (1-2) you own or have owned

    My RM J100 is still my favourite. I have since bought an original J100, a HD Sportster, a Beck 666. The narrower sleeves of the RM still makes it my favourite. I have put on some weight and RM j24 and FW San Mateo sadly don't fit anymore.
