    How I repair and clean up paint on leather

    Thanks for sharing! I learned something new here. Can you tell us what kind of marker you were using? Is it a permanent or a non-permanent type?

    Do you guys wear leather jackets at home?

    I don't usally simply because it's too warm to wear them comfortably and a thin merino is more conveniant. Exeption wearing in sleeves using the waterspray method.

    Do you have experience with Geier gloves? I found a shop with attractive prices for those, which would send overseas. Regards Daniel

    sullivan gloves review

    I just want to share my experience with the qc of this company: I bought two pairs of deerskin Classics (Black and Gold) which were delivered yesterday. Both are subpar I would say. 1) the gold/tan coloured ones have blemishes or cuts which are clearly visible since they are coloured in a...

    German motorcycle gear

    This fabric is really heavy! Far to heavy to be used as a liner. I have chosen 420 gr/sqm (14 oz/sqf) , which was what was recommended by Sam of fieldleather. That's still has some heft to it.

    German motorcycle gear

    This is going to be my jacket soon - It is british made moleskin though. When I was still riding in my mid-twenties I had a german made, moleskin-lined MC-Jacket. It was probably made in the 50ies. The moleskin was still in stellar shape. Good stuff - hence my choice for my new jacket.

    What do you layer under your leather jacket?

    Love the Aero rollneck. What's the exact model?

    It seems that my Field Leathers modified Route 66 is in the making. :)

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Up until now I have only worn Red Wing boots (except for some italien made dress boots I purchased while being in italy). But reading through this thread I am getting intruiged by the Viberg Service Boot in the 2030 last (or the ones looking similar). Now I am wondering which size I would...

    Looks beatiful, but I don't like the fact, that it is a teacore leather. I prefer them dyed through.

    I ordered the leather hem anyway, so I might be fine. But if possible will change the lining you to be shure. Thanks for the pictures!

    Field Leathers

    I forgot one thing: Zippers. I ordered Talon No. 5 assuming Greg wouldnt offer nothing but the best. But lately I am reading horror stories about failing repro Talons. What is your take and what would chose? Reliability is important but looks as well - I don't like the look of a No. 10 but...

    My FL jacket is due to be made in just a short while, so almost no time left for changes. Reading another thread ("What is the allure of japanese leather jackets?) I came across somthing that was new to me. Since many folks are using this thread to inform themselfs about the options Greg is...
