    Thoughts on the new Coronado Vintage Americana Bomber

    Thanks for the reply, Edward. This was immensely informative and honestly an enjoyable read. It's comforting to encounter kindred spirits here. I love the how garments, and other things that can initially be seen as simple objects, slowly unveil themselves as we learn. As we progress we begin...

    Wow. You could have given me a fish but instead you taught me how to be a fisherman. This is very helpful and I truly appreciate your response.

    Thoughts on the new Coronado Vintage Americana Bomber

    Thanks JJ, the "why" you've provided is insightful and immediately helpful. My comment was somewhat preemptive to some replies I see here. I was clarifying what I wasn't looking for. The type that roughly say "don't get this, get that...it's better". Or, "you can get used cheaper". Thus my...

    Thoughts on the new Coronado Vintage Americana Bomber

    Clarification: I'm not considering this jacket. I'm familiar with the company, and always enjoy the compare/contrast posts. So when I received an email about a new release it seemed like a good place to start. To me, assessments that a new jacket costs more than a used jacket, are not nearly as...

    Thoughts on the new Coronado Vintage Americana Bomber

    Thanks for your reply. I got a great deal on my coronado jacket and always wanted some bison leather so that was a good fit, but TFL has expanded my awareness exponentially. Oddly enough, in exploring potential "nexts", the HWM is under heavy consideration. That is why posts like yours are so...

    Thoughts on the new Coronado Vintage Americana Bomber

    I don't want to set off the Shill Detector but my interest in leather outerwear grew when I bought my Coronado jacket (Classic Bison Bomber #19, if anyone is curious). I like it but as is the nature of this disease, I'm curious what is out there. So the intention of my post is to genuinely spark...

    Any thoughts on Schott Style: 463? (U.S. Bison Delivery Jacket)

    I hear you. I really like the shorter jackets, probably first got hooked on denim truckers. Perhaps the appeal comes from the desire to keep cool air from blowing directly on my waist. Also, I'm average height so this isn't so long that I end up looking like "baby-legs" Deadpool.

    Any thoughts on Schott Style: 463? (U.S. Bison Delivery Jacket)

    Thanks for the info everyone. The photos were the cherry on top. That Windward is a looker. Fantastic looking leather you have there. I really like where it hits below the belt.

    Any thoughts on Schott Style: 463? (U.S. Bison Delivery Jacket)

    Uh oh, I think I'm in love. Does anyone have any experience with this jacket or similar leathert? I'm curious about how heavy and flexible this would be; after a reasonable amount of time. Any idea on break-in or patina vs. cow/steer or horse? Thanks! OVERVIEW Known for its unique rustic grain...
