    Ah, I see you are a man of culture as well. That's how I roll, too.

    FS: "Wind Armor" Shearling/Sheepskin Jacket (Coat), L

    Wind Armor - Nichiwa shearling (sheepskin) leather jacket in a size 3L which, in my view, corresponds to an L (Large) or US 44 or EU 54. PRICE €160 + Shipping. INFO While styled as simple and to the point as possible, it's the fit & pattern of this really cool jacket that stands out. The way...

    Field Leathers

    Yeah, that's what I don't understand either. There are so many videos on Youtube of people making an entire leather jacket in one afternoon. I follow two guys on Insta that post videos where they make a leather jacket entirely by hand in two days! There are setbacks, of course; You run out of...

    Help! Quick opinion on Kreosote boots.

    Not going to happen. Himel and quite a few others tried to pull this off, too and it didn't happen. One thing these makers seem to forget the moment their business picks up, is that they're making knockoffs. There is no brand image.

    Help! Quick opinion on Kreosote boots.

    In all seriousness, how do these people sleep at night? Knowing I absolutely have to be making shoes (or whatever) for the next 10 years, would've sent me to an early grave.

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

    You know your fit all too well. Really cool!

    Fitcheck Fine creek leon 44 or 42. Which one should i choose.

    People being scammed into buying those motorcycle jacket knock-offs while true gems by Fine Creek lie undiscovered. They actually did some insanely good stuff, like this M-65. Every damn stitch has been translated into leather perfectly.

    Dating this Hermes suede jacket, and wondering how to tighten ribbed cuffs

    I highly doubt it that the cuffs are wool. I've seen a few of these jackets and they always had a separate tag somewhere in the lining, stating what the ribbed cuffs are made of & they were always either cotton or cotton x polyester blend. Wool cuffs never look or age like that, either. In any...

    Fitcheck Fine creek leon 44 or 42. Which one should i choose.

    No. You have to glaze that shit until it's glistening. If this forum was any good, they'd recommend the OP to keep BOTH jackets, one for layering and one for just a T-shirt, as both are clearly spectacular.

    Fitcheck Fine creek leon 44 or 42. Which one should i choose.

    Ah, the result of peddling subversive, concept clothes as utilitarian. I used to hate Fine Creek because of this until I realized they're actually trying to be Balenciaga. Anyway, then it's simple - Get the 44 and have it altered.

    Lol! Are you just flat-out making this stuff up or did you actually hear that from some overzealous sales over at the Clutch cafe? Why would you even say that!? It dead-on looks like a Thom Browne piece and if it isn't a Thom Browne piece, it has no business looking like that on anyone, ever.

    I'm 100% with @Peter Mackin here. Neither look even half-decent on you, neither has a redeeming quality of any kind or sort and you have absolutely no reason to consider either. You deserve much better at any price tag. While generally too large, the 44 is of a near-coat length while the 42 is...

    Help finding this Leather Jacket (Cafe Racer with Stripes)

    All these options are cheaper than having Lewis or JL making you a $1000+ copy of a copy of some old-ass $30 jacket. But even finding a Belstaff of same or very similar design shouldn't be a problem. What size are you...

    Help finding this Leather Jacket (Cafe Racer with Stripes)

    Going with Lewis Leathers or Johnson Leathers for this is crazy. Like I said, thousands upon thousands of such jackets were made as it used to be an extremely popular European style, which is where the movie jacket is drawing their inspiration from and I'm absolutely certain you can find one...

    Help finding this Leather Jacket (Cafe Racer with Stripes)

    Other than getting the Cyclops' Belstaff or going vintage, I don't think you've got that many options. Bates would be your best bet although, thousands upon thousands of such jackets were made in Italy in the 70's and the 80's. I'm sure you could find exactly what you're looking for on Vinted...
