    Denim Jacket recommendations

    Highest quality is subjective to what you consider quality personally, be it denim weight and construction, durability, design, period accuracy reproduction, etc. Anything above 15oz denim will be quite hard wearing. The top brands are all mostly in the same level as they’re somewhat niche...

    Opinions Eastman ELMC California Highway Leather Jacket

    I have 4 Eastman’s at the moment (one I will be selling soon, a black ELMC Californian s. 40), and also own Thedi and Aeros. In my opinion the quality is comparable in all three brands, but my favourites are the ELMC, I really like the leather they use and the construction is flawless. Edit...

    What is a pristine Eastman Roadstar worth?

    I’ve bought and sold a few Eastman jackets over the years, both ELMC and military ones. I love their products. Near new or gently used ELMC jackets tend to sell between USD $650 and $750. Less than $650 is a good deal for the buyer and over $750 is a good outcome for the seller. If you’re...

    How long does it usually take to get a reply from Goodwear Leather ?

    Certainly, if you’re in that position by all means get frustrated, complain publicly and ask for your deposit back. But as the OP said very clearly, he didn’t want to discuss or complain about his huge long wait time, he was merely politely asking for the opinion of someone with first hand...

    How long does it usually take to get a reply from Goodwear Leather ?

    No one is making excuses for John’s lack of discipline to answer to his customers, just setting the record straight regarding the paid deposits. As I stated, there’s plenty of evidence that John’s an honest man, regardless of his poor customer service.

    How long does it usually take to get a reply from Goodwear Leather ?

    You’re sounding quite obnoxious with your repetitive condescending remarks. The OP doesn’t want to badmouth Goodwear or complain about his deposit, he asked a simple question and got helpful answers. John Chapman is an honest man who is a master craftsman of leather jackets, but he is also...
