John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather.
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks.
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style. Amen and amenI know we got off-topic of incoming jackets, but one of the things that make TFL interesting to me is diversity. I know what my jackets and my vintage brimmed hats look like and how I wear my jackets and hats. If ever one else was wearing the same jackets and the same hats as me and wearing them the same way I do, how boring that would be, why bother wasting time on TFL? The same holds true with boots, I have a triple inflection.
This has been my most exciting week since I purchase my first Leather jacket 19 years ago three incoming.
First up a large size Star Glove Shearling lined size 46 excellent robust condition. Purchased Saturday delivered Tuesday.

And I am not done, rode up to Johnson Leather today to drop my Aero Connolly Patrolman jacket off for needed alterations
I always tucked my shirts in including T-shirts until 5 years ago when my colon was removed. Now my bowels protrude out my abdomen and I attach a bag to collect waste which creates a bulge. In addition to the bag, I have a pocket of blood and fat between my skin and abdomen wall that protects my bowels where they protrude from the wall, further increasing the bulge. I was once asked if I was carrying a *** by a teller at &-Eleven. Now I only tug a shirt if I am wearing my jacket zipped and even them the tugged shirt interferes with the bag. This is the only place my wearing my shirt not tucked has ever been questioned. I have considered having the pocket of blood and fat removed by cosmetic surgery, but there are health and safety concerns. I have explained my condition here once prior after another member commented on my shirt not being tugged in? I do not let my condition slow me down, I am seventy and this weekend I raced my forty-foot sailboat overnight out in the open Pacific ocean in 30 note winds and high confused seas. When I was not wearing a foul weather jacket, I was wearing a leather G1 jacket
thats an amazing jacket, as I thought it sounds very special and different from their normal product. Great Score and I also love your sense of humor...great job going all out!The Vanson 628us arrived yesterday. The Horween veg. oil tanned steer hide looks and feels like I think my 50s Langlizt horsehide Langlitz would have been before summited to being worn, smooth, luxurious, conforming to my body. The hide smells a lot like my Himel shinki oil-tanned horsehide.

I think I will delete the epaulets, belt loop and snaps, I also want bigger collar like LW.Awesome. Larger coin pocket or remove it. It would look good without it too. Like a J-82.
How about a Wabash cloth mask?The Schott 628us arrived yesterday.
