That's really another way of looking at it and hopefully it doesn't take that long to complete lol that will be a cool project with the details of those jackets all rolled into one and it certainly will be a one of a kind piece. advanced congratulations brother.
i was wondering the same and eventually gave up on waiting for a jacket my size to come around lol
I asked for the same request before I had my JL padded CHP commissioned lol Greg is making another cross zip for me by November so thinking of what I really want out of that project as well
This looks great to me. I had the same issue with a Mr Freedom jacket and I just dunked the leather in water to soak through completely and wore the jacket to set the creases.
Wow you sat on that wonderful leather for 2 whole years and the project really came out well. That's some nice graining on them bad boys you got there.
Got it, never did see those topy before and they really complete the look. What a handsome pair of boots. Noted on Shonan info, this is the...
Another option would be Kelpie HH, its tanned locally in the U.K. It comes in dark green/seal brown/black. Combination tanned leather like CXL, they first chrome tan it to keep the leather supple then they re tan it with vegetable tan process so it has a nice color depth. The dark green is a...
got the same experience, I'm normally a 36 and received a 40 fit jacket lol needless to say the jacket didn't fit quite as I wanted it to be and eventually moved the jacket on
Can't blame you lol most of us are weak with impulse control with these leather jackets! I think this jacket pattern is now proven to work with taller/bigger gents
Got word from Aero that they'll finally start working on my black badalassi 4 pocket cafe racer with highwayman details this week. Opted for the YKK universal old american range #5 in brass with black tape for the main zipper
@AerGuitar did mention it will stretch with wear but I feel that...
Can't go wrong with either one. I am partial to the Mulholland having it in black/brown but I do like the Nelson as well so I took design elements of it for my custom FL jacket.
They can call it whatever or categorize it however they want but it's still just leather. It's just a bunch of industry terms that they use for marketing and to differentiate articles of leather. Shinki leather is a broad term, like Horween they make a lot of hides that are dyed differently and...
I get it man it can be so confusing. Try not to overthink it. Full aniline is good for you if you want a nice smooth leather where you can appreciate color variations and if you don't mind imperfections in the hide and this type of leather is not good in the elements at all. Semi aniline is good...
@jglf It's about a 4 month average wait time from placing the order and DHL is pretty quick 4-7 days delivery from Indonesia to California. What boot are you trying to get and in what leather?
@dudewuttheheck does flame panda skive his boots? It looks thicker and beefier. Still waiting for my...
Looks like it's made for you, lovely color for both boots/jacket and they match well. Don't really care about historical accuracy or being period correct as well, so long as it has a nice trim tailored fit to the wearer.
