    Vintage Al's Size 44 $225

    Hi FL! I want to move this vintage Al's on to a new home. That said, this a nice vintage size 44. I had a new YKK zipper put on and the leather is in good shape with nice grain. There are a few minor issues.: one of the rear belt loops is loose and could use a few new stitches, the area where...

    Brian the Underhanded Bootmaker

    Dude, $500 is huge. Call him up and have a quick conversation. Tell him how you're feeling and that you were stoked to have a pair of his boots, but don't attack him. I'm sure you can work it out. If he is unwilling to work with you then I agree, I work in customer service and email is the...

    Brian the Underhanded Bootmaker

    What did he say when you confronted him about this? Or, did you cancel the order without following up.

    My first cross zip… critique this fit

    It looks tight zipped up, but It might loosen a little with wear and breaking the leather in. If your weight doesn't fluctuate too much, maybe you can keep it and see how it breaks in. I own this stiff Johnson Leather Horween HH and the hem was a little too restrictive. Once I started wearing...

    Indian Sugar Cane CHP 40

    I posted this to the F&D section- this should sell quickly. What is the hem measurement out of curiosity?

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    He may be having a bad day as he's usually a decent member/contributor here IMHO. I've purchased only used Aeros, but it's nice to see they have good service when/if things go wrong. Welcome to the FL!

    How many of you guys ordered from the Aero sale?

    I used to be obsessed about sleeve length until I saw an old post from you where you said you don't worry about it too much. There wide variance between makers and styles it seems. I think the Aero looks great Kblake.

    Legendary USA not selling Schott?

    I'll try that. Do you take a candle and rub it on the zipper? Dumb question probably, LOL.

    Legendary USA not selling Schott?

    FWIW, I had a NOS Talon zipper on a Lost Worlds that was super stiff and catchy. I used a silver polishing cloth to remove some of the built-up tarnish on the zipper then added a very light coat of bicycle chain oil using a small plastic brush. It helped the zipper immensely.

    Aero Leather Zip-Sleeve Highwayman in Badalassi Steerhide Size 42

    As someone else has pointed out, the market is saturated with Aero's. They last forever and the used ones with grain are prized almost as much as newer ones. Why not price it how you want and drop the price every week until someone buys it? Don't clog the classifieds by simply bumping it, be...
