These are excellent! Thank you for this video, I really appreciate it as it's probably the only chance for me to get a closer look at the LW jackets. Oddly so, though, all these still seem somehow more pliable than my Vanson B.

I've only read about the Vanson jackets. I've bid a few Enfields.

Nice one Terry. Love your videos. LW is getting a more love here at the minute. I'm enjoying it.

What do you use to condition the leather Terry?
Looks great

Great video. One of the most informative and intelligent ones I've seen. Wouldn't it be great if we had videos like this one for all the jackets?

Well thanks for showing those. I am especially curious about the Suburban, it's on my hit list!

I am a confirmed Lost Worlds fanatic, so it's great to see these. Interesting that one of them needed some conditioning, none of mine (currently three) ever seem to have needed anything. Stuart is pretty adamant about his jackets never needing any conditioning...however ,some of these jackets get used more than others.

Another great episode in the TM leather jacket mini-series.

Lost Worlds says their Horsehide is thirsty or like the rain, something like that. I've had the test in the rain. The Suburban has been out of the rain. Maybe with more rain it would not need anything. I think jackets need to be worn and handled to keep them in shape. The Suburban has been on the rack with the broken zipper. I could feel it. Their leather is pretty rough anyway, but it needed a little rub down.

I've only got a couple in house with the mandarin collar. two Brooks as I recall. Had others but sold them.

Thank you very much for those videos! My next jacket will probably be a Suburban with zippered grommet lower pockets and a two way front zipper. I am no expert, but LW makes an incredible product.

I spent 2.5 hours at Vanson yesterday, trying on many jackets, including the Enfield and my LW Easy Rider feels as thick as their competition weight leather. I like thick, as I ride a bike and it makes me feel more protected comfortable in thug elements.

Vanson has a couple jackets on the drawing board, including a 3/4 length that I will buy as soon as it comes out, but that is a long way away.

I can't tell you how much I would love them to have a store front, as i live very close to them.
