More Two Tone

Saw this on another site.

A nice two tone effect

Like the way you can choose the 'amount' of two-tone on show.

Who made this?

 

[pauleway]

Just got notified that my Aero 30's HB-2-tone was shipped today. I will post pics when I receive it! (Have to get my daughter to help post pics though because I'm not too savvy on computer)!

Who made this?

That's gotta be one of Mark Fisher's

Yup

 

[bretron]

Yours?

 

[majormajor]

Yours?

No. As I said, I just saw this on another site.

I don't usually like two-tone jackets that much. Just a bit too "out-there" for me.

But this one I find quite appealling, and, as Sloan mentioned, you can actually adjust the amount of two-tone on display. Which is cool

 

[bretron]

The more subtle the two-tone the better IMO.

Here's another Diamond Dave J100. Though not period accurate color-wise, i think it exemplifies how badass a two-tone done right can be!

Who is Diamond Dave? Haven't heard of him before... Does he only do cafe racers?

Dave is the man behind Diamond Cap Co. (see http://www.diamondcapco.com/.

He specializes in crusher caps (did em for Red Tails in fact). He has been branching out in jackets more and more. One of his half belts is on eBay right now actually... High quality stuff!

Well, in the 80's, it was David Lee Roth! lol

I especially like the wool/leather combo jackets that he occasionally makes. Very sharp.

Thanks. Not my size, but very nice-looking. Somebody got a steal.

Doesn't it? I was trying to find a price on those.

 

[Sloan1874]

Yes, it's tantalising isn't it? You phone up just to find out how much, and WHAM! You've put in an order.
