    Leather Jacket repair

    I never did get this jacket repaired, but my son is old enough to wear it now. So.... time to pass it down to another generation. Need to get serious about finding a good person to repair the liner.

    L. L. Bean A-2 history time line?

    Resurrecting an old thread, but I recently bought one of these jackets and must say it has become my go to jacket. It's my first LLB A2 style jacket and I find it well made, the fit is good and the goat is solid quality. I don't know how old this one, but it is an XL, so not exact size, 3 piece...

    My 3M mile Fed

    I have been trying to post pics from my hosting site, but must admit it has been a while since I used it. Now I can't seem to access my libraries. I must say though many might be somewhat disappointed, as the hat shows little wear despite the many miles. I have always brushed the hat off after a...

    My 3M mile Fed

    I haven't had much chance to check in lately, but thought I would give an update on my favorite hat. I will travel to jolly ole England next month to lecture at Oxford and visit the House of Lords on invitation. I picked up an old A2 and figure my old Akubra Fed will accompany me yet again. This...

    Old US Wings lambskin A2

    No worry there as I sold my last bike. I just can't find any enjoyment in riding in the traffic of northern Virginia. I raced from the time I was 5 until I was in my late 20's in the dirt. And rode on the street for many year between and after. But, it lost its luster up here. My Fox Creek is...

    Old US Wings lambskin A2

    By the way I should have noted that the seller agreed to reduce the price of the jacket once I found out it was indeed lambskin. To the point I thought it was worth keeping. It is also a very nice color of medium brown with a subtle hint of red in it. USW even had a hard time figuring out if it...

    Old US Wings lambskin A2

    I bought a new jacket off ebay. It was advertised as a Goatskin modern style A2, but after further inspection it turns out is was an old lambskin. Though I could have returned it I decided to keep it. According to US Wings, when I contacted them, it's probably 15+ years old and has almost never...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    I don't think I have bought a hat in two years, since unloading about a dozen, including one now in a museum. :) So I have been needing a nice gray fedora since I rarely wear my nicest Whippet in a beautiful blue. So I found a nice Adam Executive in a similar style in a nice gray...

    BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes

    I hope to. As you may recall, I have moved to northern Virginia and work in that wretched city know as our nation's capitol. I am ensconsed in occupied territory on but the very edge of southern lands. I do indeed stand out here with my hats, especially the westerns and am often recalled by...

    lil joe's leather

    Yes Fox Creek has several nice looking vests. Thus far everything I have seen by them is top notch. I just recently acquired my first Fox Creek jacket. The Grayson.

    WTB Boys size 10-12 A2 style leather jacket

    Yeah, you are probably right. I went ahead and ordered that jacket for him. It is goatskin. Hopefully he will get 3 years out of it. I ordered it big. Thanks for the head's up.

    WTB Boys size 10-12 A2 style leather jacket

    I would like to buy my 10 year old son his first A2 style leather jacket or something similar. Haven't had much luck on ebay finding one. I was hoping someone here has one they bought for their child who has outgrown it. He is a size 8-10, but I want him to be able to wear it a while, so I am...

    Advice on a new jacket

    I might just go one size larger in the Grayson. The 46 might work. I have done a lot of research in other models at FCL plus others and haven't come up with a great alternative. I don't want to spend $1k for a jacket. My middle aged ass has a performance vehice to pay for now since I no...
