    Monsieur didn't reinvent the wheel with his Heron, he just copied an original.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Absolutely, I can understand you. It probably has more to do with the fact that I personally don't like the CR jackets with their Chinese collars. But if you enjoy it, enjoy wearing these.

    Himel Bros jacket, 1st winter update

    As already commented, it makes a big difference whether you switch from a (former) jacket collector to the business of a jacket manufacturer without understanding this business. In addition, it is a matter of character how one behaves as a businessman, which in this case leaves something to be...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Apart from the fact, CR jacket is not the style @Will Zach fits. He is more the Cal Jacket type, just my 2 cents :)

    First Aero Leather advice - lightweight CXFQHH or Pinnacle?

    Side note: As you said, you live in London. Why not visit aero leather directly and get advice on site. As your first aero leather jacket, I recommend you do it right from the start, otherwise you will only be disappointed and it may cost you a lot of money if you made the wrong decision.

    First Aero Leather advice - lightweight CXFQHH or Pinnacle?

    Below of 5 Degrees the fats in the leather have the tendency to lose their viscosity and the jacket becomes stiff. I talking about my experience with Horween CXL FQHH I had.

    First Aero Leather advice - lightweight CXFQHH or Pinnacle?

    I was talking about the heavy stuff. I meant the Horween CXL FQHH aero is using. This leather in my opinion is a nice leather for a motorcycle jacket which gives a good amount of protection like an armor. Also it is some kind of waterproof but for a casual jacket it's to heavy. I had the lighter...

    First Aero Leather advice - lightweight CXFQHH or Pinnacle?

    I have owned a few aero leather jackets in CXL FQHH and said goodbye to them all. The reason: the cxl fqhh is actually a shoe leather and is extremely thick and heavy. In addition, the jacket is not wearable in colder temperatures, it becomes hard as a board due to the fats, which are treated...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    That's the case, there are collectors who don't appear in public, for whatever reason. I know that e.g. the owner of RMC owns not one room but an entire hangar of valuables. But has anyone noticed anything in public? Absolutely whether original or repro doesn't matter, to each his own. There...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    I don't want to open Pandora's box here, but the original leather jackets that are posted here in this forum are okay, can be found with a little patience and in good condition for fair prices. @jeo @tmitchell59's collections are cool and stand out from the crowd. But I have read and heard about...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    I think everyone has their own preferences in this regard. For some, the condition etc. doesn't play such an important role. For others, an original, used leather jacket is a no-go. However, true is, what used to be valuable back in the days (duesenberg, ferrari gto, for example in cars or as...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    I don't know if it's really a curve. It's more of a spiral that can go in one direction or the other. It is true, in the 80s and early 90s the Japanese brought many parts bought for cheap in today's eyes from the USA (clothes, motorcycles, motorcycle parts, etc.) to Japan. In addition, thanks to...
