patina

Hey guys, I'm a fan of Japanese denim and heritage wear, and recently have gotten into Japanese Leathercrafts. a couple months ago I bought an Accel Fireman Buckle Belt in black and I absolutely adore it, however I am struggling to find any examples of how this type of leather may age and was...

Here is a fantastic Cal Leather, horsehide, angle zip, motorcycle jacket in a smaller size (38ish I think). I just bought it but unfortunately it doesn't quite fit; I had this exact model for many years and foolishly sold it. This jacket has a fantastic distressed patina; perhaps the best I've...

Hello everyone! This is one of my favourite leather jackets (not that i have too many, lol) and the most expensive item in my wardrobe. I was wondering how it was going to fare up in the future, especially regarding patina and durability; can’t really find info about lambskin and black leather...

Hello Everyone, I posted about this brown/teacore/vegetable-tanned cowhide jacket (Thedi model MTC-1279406) back in September when I first received it from Thurston Brothers, so some of you may have seen it then. This was my dream leather jacket, and I think it's absolutely beautiful, but...

Many beloved jackets that have served one faithfully for many years, look like the first two pics. When sent in for repairs, I frequently hear "I want to keep the patina so don't put anything on it." But, when the top layer of the skin is worn away it deteriorates rather quickly. A jacket in...

Hi everybody, Have a great Schott 581 Unlined Cafe Racer in Cowhide Leather in size large. Asking $450 shipped. This jacket is a light to medium brown, with a heavy pull-up effect that makes it appear vintaged even though it has not been worn much at all. Please note that the jacket is unlined...

Howdy folks, Some of you might remember me from the "mongrel" custom J-106 I posted last year in Natural CXL. I love the jacket, it's broken in beautifully, but now I'm looking for a lighter, short, jacket in light brown. I asked Aero if they would make a custom Ike, AKA, Battledress jacket...

Recently I bought this jacket. It has a label in it. I could find nothing on the internet. The jacket is a long leather trenchcoat with a wool lining. 1930s or 1940s? Does anyone recognize the makers label?

I just bought my leather jacket, and i wear it every day. How many years does it take fore a jacket to start showing a bit of patina? Its black, if that matters
