    Can anyone ID this jacket?

    Golden Goose makes a stupid expensive pair of short biker boots with a braided strap like those. Not sure if those are exactly the ones though.

    Can anyone ID this jacket?

    Well at least it won't drive me nuts. I think I'll stick with my Schott. I can see why they altered the jacket for the show. I doubt a real motorcycle cop would be wearing a $1700 fashion jacket, but hey, you never know. Thanks for the nearly instant feedback!

    Can anyone ID this jacket?

    These are stills from the production of True Detective season 2. If anyone has any insight into what make of jacket this is, I'd love to hear it!

    Best Panama Hat Book?

    Books on Panama Hat history? Hi all, I'm planning to do a research paper on the panama hat industry. It will be some what of an ethnography on the weavers and also their relationship to the industry world wide (for instance, how has higher demand in the United States and abroad affected...

    What is this hat?

    The Pilbara is a pretty darn close match. Thanks everyone for the input!

    What is this hat?

    Can someone ID this style of hat for me? I like this hat for its rugged looks and western flair without being an outright cowboy hat. To me it has more of a South American, Treasure of the Sierra Madre look. If anyone knows of a similar hat out there, please do not hesitate to recommend a...

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    ¡Hostia! Looks like a blast, Huerta. Which fiesta is it? Any time you mix podencos and trabucos is sure to be a good time!

    L.L. Bean Flying Tiger Jacket.

    Zombie post! I have a G1 flying tiger from the older days when it was actual shearling and marked with a 38, etc. size. They must run very big because mine is marked 38 and I'm 6' 4" 190 and it fits me like it was tailor made for me. Nice hefty talon zipper and very warm liner and collar...

    Slimmer cut D-pocket jackets

    I just realized that Schott currently only makes one D-pocket jacket. I was thinking for some reason the 618 was a D but definitely is not.

    Slimmer cut D-pocket jackets

    I posted a while ago about looking for an understated d-pocket jacket and several people referred me to the AL Detroit jacket, which is superb. I decided, though, that the Schott Perfecto is at heart what I'm really looking for and the blingier details I want to avoid would be easy to change...

    Aero Leathers - International pricing?

    I looked in a Jack and Jones store today at the mall here in Logroño. A shirt was listed at 29.95€ and 30£ (they had put the price for every country they sell to on the tag). Just crazy. So yes just more proof that slimy companies will in fact carry the number over. If only Aero did that...

    Aero Leathers - International pricing?

    Ok so now that the banter has died down a bit, my original question still stands about whether or not the prices on the site are converted (either to Euros or USD for the EU and United States respectively) or if the number remains the same from currency to currency (i.e. 675£ to 675€ or $675)...

    Money in Old West films

    I figured as much. I was watching the Searchers with John Wayne and he throws around $5 "yankee dollar" coins like nothing which, again, struck me as odd but as you all said, that's just hollywood. Thanks RBH for the price chart. Very interesting. Assuming by "blanket" they mean a wool...

    Unity by Cooper Leathers?

    I was cruising the bay recently to see if there were any crazy deals on a vintage d-pocket and I came across one that was billed as a Cooper jacket from a line called "Unity." I've never heard of it but people seem to like Cooper A-2s on here so I figured they might be an ok brand. Has anyone...

    Money in Old West films

    I really enjoy a good western, spaghetti or Hollywood, and because many of them deal with bounties and the like, money comes up (i.e. the price on someone's head). To me the figures always seem impossibly high for the time period, and I'm not just talking about bounties (which could be...

    Aero Leathers - International pricing?

    I've become more and more drawn to Aero because of its presence here and seeing all the pictures you guys post. My question is, after looking at the site, how does their pricing work for those not buying within the UK? I know how shocked people were at the price of the LVC jacket in Skyfall...

    "Willie Gillis in Convoy" by Norman Rockwell

    Fun little note: Willie attends Middlebury College in Vermont (you can tell by the spire of the campus church visible through his window). As a proud Middlebury alum I was delighted to see Rockwell sent his character there!

    Giant Pith Helmet Thread of Doom

    I couldn't agree more about a Golden Era hunt. Honestly with films like Midnight in Paris and steam-punk culture sparking bouts of golden age thinking across the globe I don't know why there isn't more of a market for this stuff yet. I would like to see the American rail system do something...

    That's a brilliant hunting get-up, Renault.

    Panama hats: need help shaping the brim

    I recently bought a Panama hat to wear on a fishing trip. It's a subfino classic fedora style from Ecua Andino. I'm not a hat person at all (I've always felt I looked dumb in ball caps so I just assumed that meant all hats would look stupid) so I decided not to spend much. I only mention this...
