    What's your care routine for Veg-Tanned Horsehide?

    Ahh, thank you for this! +1 for the scientific-ish method... Assuming the former owner did nothing as well.

    What's your care routine for Veg-Tanned Horsehide?

    Yes, I saw your pic from the store! It looks great and you helped me make my buying choice. Your pic was much better/helpful than the DH website pic.

    What's your care routine for Veg-Tanned Horsehide?

    Yes, the website! And yes, I constantly an reaching for handwarmer pockets that don't exist!

    What's your care routine for Veg-Tanned Horsehide?

    Thank you for all the advice! Doing nothing was my first instinct... but then I did what I always do and started to over-think it. And google it... and then the rabbit hole... What I found: lots of' manufacturers of Veg-Tanned leather products (wallets, bags, shoes, jackets) have lots of...

    What's your care routine for Veg-Tanned Horsehide?

    So I recently got my hands on a Double Helix veg-tanned horsehide jacket (semi-aniline). Appears to have a black pigment finish with a gloss top coat. I'm still in the "meet-cute" phase with this jacket and will post more once I figure out the "warts and all..." But yeah, I'm real happy with...

    Aero Half Belt fit check

    Basically, the bottom line is this. Some of my former jackets I looked forward to taking them off more than putting them on. That's when you realize it's not a good fit.

    Aero Half Belt fit check

    I think it's a good, real-world fit. Personally, my test of a good fit doesn't translate to pictures. My own check list: Can you take the jacket on and off without grimacing? Can you reach one of the chest-inner pockets without pinching your forearms? Can you drive a car in your jacket...

    Aero Leather Premier HWY, 40, Seal Goatskin

    The silver lining is-- a tight-fitted jacket looks great on you! Not many people (myself included) can pull that off! All the celebs at awards ceremonies (tis the season) are 100% sucking in their guts during pics, are strapped in with spanx, angling their chin up to look leaner, hiding their...

    Aero Leather Premier HWY, 40, Seal Goatskin

    I have friends who do a lot of celebrity styling and fashion photography. And this fit reminds me of the "adjustments" they used to make. Basically, they made everything look super-fitted at the front of the clothing and the back of the outfit was cinched in by a mess of pins. In other words...

    Desolation Row

    I don't know, I'm interested to try the J- version of Mac D. They have really unique seasonal items. I would 10x rather eat a J-McD than the US version. It's much cheaper than the US as well. From an economic standpoint, it speaks volumes on the efficiency and supply chain for Japan...

    Name for this type of jacket? Safari? Travel?

    Ahh... I was wondering about those back pockets! Like, how the heck do you use them? Hunting/game pouches makes a lot of sense. For me, more like... USB Battery pockets.

    Name for this type of jacket? Safari? Travel?

    I found this is the corners of my closet. It's a Paul Smith heavy cotton canvas. Made in India. Bought it years ago, but am only now appreciating it. Does anyone know if this is a "type" of jacket? Haven't really seen this design since. Is it just a fashion style? I just kind of...

    Thoughts on the Thunder Bay from Aero

    This jacket looks much better on a person than the mannequin Aero uses. I never gave it a second glance on the website... actually thought it looked kind of weird with its cut and proportions. But on a person (you!), now I get it! It looks really good. I'm a fan. I just think the sleeve...
