    AERO's undersized zips

    Have to admit, after discovering the brand (Aero) here, and finally picking up a used but like new Ridley, I was very upset at the terrible zipper, frustrated at how difficult it was to find a place to replace the main zipper, and then the additional cost of the zipper replacement in order to...

    Some fit pics and comparison of a few new and vintage brands

    I really do like that Brooks. I also sewed some patches inside the zip sleeve, just to make them 'mine'

    Some fit pics and comparison of a few new and vintage brands

    I almost didn't bid because of that seam, but now I'm glad I did, really like the Tunstall.

    Some fit pics and comparison of a few new and vintage brands

    I've been on a ridiculous leather jacket buying binge (10 in the past 2-3 months, thanks a lot TFL). One thing I have meant to ask in a new thread, was if there is a cross zip that fits like a cafe racer, and I think I've stumbled on one. I also got around to taking a few pics, for reference...

    FS: IADE Leathers Cross-zip Motorcycle Jacket, sz. L/42-ish

    Wow. If the sleeves were longer, I'd be all over this. I love this jacket.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I grabbed this one cheap because that one collar point is PERFECT, and if I can figure out how to get the flat side to match (and if it fits!) I'll be happy. What should I expect with vintage Cooper? And I pulled the trigger on this one when a coupon code popped up, but then disappeared when...

    Ali Express Leather jacket on the way!

    That sounds awesome! Need to see some pics to be sure though.

    I'm not sure how warm you need a leather jacket to keep you, but here, where the weather actually gets COLD, leather has never been my choice for warmth. In fact, I'm learning that if it isn't above 35 with sun and no wind, I'm choosing something else to wear. Unfortunately, once that temp...

    Belts and buckles

    I love those buckles! I've been obsessively searching belts exactly style (I even have one of those brass keepers in my cart on one of the sites), looks like I should start focusing on making my own. Do you know if those octagon brass buckles come with double prongs? Eta: nevermind, I just...

    Belts and buckles

    These are cool, I guess I never realized they existed. Can you post a pic of the inside of a belt with studs/jewels? (Trying to see how they're attached.) Is there a source for the jewels and studs if I wanted to try my hand at making my own?

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Shearling lined Acme harness boots that my father got new in the early-mid 70's. Worn in just right and still warm.

    I received the jacket from my dad and was able to clean it up. Looks to be about a size 38, too small for him, so I may end up trading it for something he can wear. Needs to air out for a bit first though, after being in a closet for so long.

    Help! Quick opinion on Kreosote boots.

    I'm too old and ornery to wait 42 months for ANYTHING.

    I'll try to get out there in the next week or two, and I'll clean/ condition it a little and take a ton of pics.

    I haven't seen it in person since I wore it one night in high school in the 80s. I've never seen my father wear it. It's probably in perfect condition, just needing something to condition the hide. Before I run out there and hit it with mink oil, can you suggest something better to put on it?
