    Don't you guys hate it when the seller isn't quite honest?

    Nowadays, it seems to be harder to find honest sellers on Ebay. I have gone through hell recently with a few. One guy sold me a vintage jacket from the 40s which he claimed was a size 46. He shipped the jacket to me from Germany. I got it and I couldn't for the life of me put it on. It was...

    Got a vintage coat that came with a few extras. An odor that can kill at 5 paces!

    I just got a Barnstorming leather jacket from the 20's but it came with a bonus. It smells of mildrew. The aroma is very strong. I don't know how that huge detail got past the seller. I love the jacket and I want to keep it but I don't want to keep the odor. I heard that leaving it in the sun is...

    What leather conditioner do you use?

    I use baby oil and sometimes Vaseline Petroleum Jelly. It softens and shines my vintage jackets.

    What should one do to an old coat or new jacket to protect it or restore it?

    A lot of us buy used vintage jackets sometimes in slightly rough shape. Especially if the previous owner omitted some info. I was wondering what you guys use to restore the color or shine to your jackets? Can a leather jacket be washed in a washing machine? If so, how? Can a leather jacket be...

    Returning a used Aero jacket if it doesn't fit (in uk).

    Be careful on how you ship it. Don't use the Post office. You better use FedEx or UPS they offer tracking numbers. If you paid using Paypal they will demand a tracking number. Post office only offer custom numbers. You will not be able to get a refund from Paypal if you go through the post...

    What did you buy for yourself this Christmas?

    Every year I make sure that I get at least one thing that I will definitely not send back. This year, I picked up a really nice looking Vanson Jacket. The one used on the first X-Men. I didn't like the yellow strips so I used Iodine to stain them a darker orangie color. I would post photos but I...

    Show us your Vanson Jackets

    I picked up a wolverine vanson jacket. It fit me perfectly but it felt like it was cheaply made . There wasn't that much padding. I could feel the leather pressing against the lining. Is this just a rare occurence or can i expect this from all their jackets?

    What was that first jacket that started it all?

    Everyone has that first one that started a huge collection. What was yours? Mine was a vintage motorcycle jacket that I picked up at the Thrift Store for $20. It was a weather jacket but it looked awesome. I got numerous compliments on it. It had removable sleeves. It must have been 50-60 years old.

    D-Pocket leather jackets

    Mine is an original Harley Davidson Panhead jacket with removable sleeves. It has no Harley patches on it. I don't like the newer versions of the Panhead Jacket. There are too many patches on it. I feel like a walking billboard for Harley Davidson. What is your favorite D pocket jacket?
