Warmer day=lighter HH. Taubers. Fantastic jacket.
That is soooo nice, what is this jacket?
Does Lexol bring stiffer dry suede (after wash) back to life?Having fun with this probably early 2000 banana republic suede truckerish. Was more of a beige-brown when I got it. Had a few little stains and dryness. Gave it a wash and sprayed it with lexol and water. Needs a good 2 or 3 day dry in the sun to even out some. I'm thinking about swapping the buttons for bronze or copper donut holes. And I'm going to see if I can get past the Arnold Schwarzenegger bicep cut, otherwise trim those too. But really digging it. Anyway, keeping me busy and having fun.

The funny part is the bench behind you makes it look like you have tufts of greyish hair on the sides of your head!I know I'm too old for cross zips... I'll give it a try anyway.

Amazing how different it looks from my HH in CXL. What leather is that?
we'll find out soon LOL. I've used coconut oil on another suede and really liked how it looked, sort of a waxed flesh kind of thing. But coconut oil is hazy when it's dry and kind of makes it dull and was very oily to touch, so this time I thought about trying something else. So I diluted some lexol with a little bit of skidmores too, mixed with warm water and sprayed the whole thing down. On some of the edges and corners, I added skidmore directly to create some patina type look. Works really nice but the jacket just drinks the skidmore.Does Lexol bring stiffer dry suede (after wash) back to life?
The older Bananas were made better, no seam right at the elbow to save on cost.
Brown Schott 118JThat is soooo nice, what is this jacket?
that's the 118j I think. Seriously, that's as nice as anything else on here. Would gladly be happy with that over any Buco or whatever. That's some kind of special tanning because I don't think my 118 will ever get anywhere near that look.Schott?

Thanks This is a very affordable Jack & Jones jeans. Model TIM slim fit, I think. Nothing special, but I like the color and it is low waist, which I also like.Looking great as always. You've probably answered this elsewhere, but what make/model are those jeans?
