    Fit Check Thread

    I see what people are saying in terms of it looking small for what's meant to be a half-belt. But it doesn't look like it's squeezing the life out of them either. Like said earlier, depends how one wants to wear it. The Japanese pattern seems to work for their body type. My first thought when...

    Fit Check Thread

    Very trim fit - doesn't look like sausage casing - looks good. If movement isn't inhibited, don't see anything wrong with it.

    Star Glove Co by Lost Worlds is best ever

    Stuart said they came upon some good pics of this Star Glove design + with owning and being familiar with the construction of orig. Cal CHPs and Trojans, it was easy to go from there and they were able to offer this as a new mainstay on the website. Not the first time they've done such a thing -...

    Finally pulled the trigger on a Y2 Shacket

    First time I've seen a leather shacket - 42 looks like the right size. It fits well, but is kinda long. Makes me think of a dress shirt length which one would normally tuck in anyway.

    Viberg - any other horrible experiences?

    I'm not enough of a boot aficionado to judge loose vs acceptable grain, but for next time, I'd recommend checking out the Patina project app and searching for the leather your next shoe/boot purchase is made from. Can give a good idea of what to expect. Based on Guidi calf, there's only 3...

    Is a leather jacket & shorts a fashion faux pas?

    I just can't do jackets and shorts. No offense to other members who go out like that sometimes, but they're like chalk and cheese to me. If it's really too hot for jeans/pants, I don't see why I'd prefer to boil my upper body instead. In general, the only times I wear shorts outside are: 1) Gym...

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

    Nice, I didn't realize you had one of these too. My wallet is already cursing them, but all is well after :D Thanks for the tip though, will definitely have to try that - already told him I need to get these damn buttons on. He said to come by to pick it up and his machinist will make sure I'm...
