Hiya Soren! I put the wrong link up..I'm an idiot.. LOL http://www.lewisleathers.com/gallery/

Lewis Leathers, who make classic British Motorcycling Gear have updated their website..check out the new Jackets section..so much easier to use and navigate! Lewis's is a small company,run with a lot of love and attention to detail, and make all their gear here in the UK.. it's all beautiful...

Hi, You're best to send them your exact measurements (Talk to Amanda at Aero)..and they will size you. They are very good, and on the one occasion I had a sizing problem with a jacket of theirs, they replaced it no questions asked, and very quickly. My Aero Bootlegger's a 38" and...

OG 107s... usually in Olive green rip stop cotton, prior to the woodland camo issue. The early issue versions did sport far more slanted pockets, like the WW2 issue Para jacket though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OG107

They seem to have styled this GI Joe remake on the popular 'Metal Gear Solid' computer Games...

Peter (Jackson) is obsessed with WW1 and 2 gear..so everything will be correct... The photos my friend sent all looked great. (and this was all just research gear for the costume dept.)

Schott remake many of their classic jackets for the Japanese market..and they are great.. (and correspondingly expensive) On a trip around Aoyama, I saw some great Schott/Beck jackets (Made in the USA by Schott).. They were all more tailored and had far better finishes than their stuff I've...

Excuse my ignorance.. They would've worn Irvins on the mission wouldn't they? Yours..slightly confused..

I've just talked to a mate of mine who's working on it, and it's on hold, as there's script revisions. I have mentioned that if they need any help on Equipment/gear, I happen to know a bunch of very knowledgeable collectors. :D

LW make quality stuff.. but it's almost too good. Their HH is incredibly heavy and stiff. As an MC jacket it makes it hard work to wear practically. I've owned many original 40-60s Buco HH jackets and none are the weight or stiffness of LW. I've always found Stuart (the owner) very...

The alpaca is great..My lining is 2 years old, has constant wear and is fine. Some people have commented that they find the alpaca scratchy (I don't), but just thought I should mention this if you're only wearing it with a t-shirt.. As my Mum would say..wrap up warm, ye'll catch your...

Many Skinheads in the '80s got 'Made in England' tattooed across their foreheads to show their 'english pride'. My friend TimTom had 'Made in Hong Kong' across the back of his neck as a humourous rebuttal of this nationalism. lol I like the idea of putting it on the bottom of the foot...

A massive german bomb was exploded late last year close to where I live in Bow, East London. Just along side the canal in Pudding Lane. We still live with the legacy of WW2...

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, it looks superb...

Well..I certainly put nothing on my the jacket... You don't need to condition new jackets! Ah well.. bad luck etc... I really like the seal brown colour myself.. think that'll be the next purchase!
