    My Simmons Bilt Klondike in Black Goatskin

    Thought I'd take some pics and post them before the weather gets too hot. My modified Simmons Bilt Klondike in Black Goatskin ...

    Friendship Leather in Patong, Thailand

    On a recent trip to Patong, I was in search of a shoe repair shop and stumbled upon a place called Friendship Leather.

    Vintage Leather Jackets in "Den of Thieves"

    Recently spotted Gerard Butler sporting several vintage leather jackets in the film "Den of Thieves". Went back through the film and tried to ID them.

    I’ve been living and working in China for the last 5 years, and as far as I know, I’m the only person on this forum that posts from China.

    Fair Warning about Aero Alpaca Lining ... and any suggestions, please!

    Hello Fellow Loungers, I hate to make a ranting post like this, but I kind of feel the need to warn others about my recent experiences with the Aero alpaca lining. I got my first Aero jacket about 3 weeks ago, which I posted about here...

    First Aero - Modified Board Racer - Dark Seal Vicenza … Arrived in China!

    Hello All, This is my first Aero jacket, and my first post on this forum. I referenced The Fedora Lounge a lot when deciding on my Aero, so figured I’d make my contribution. I currently live and work in China, so I initially contacted the Aero dealers in-country here. They carried no stock...
