    New Aero Elvis fqhh

    Is it Badalassi Tobacco? Does this color darken very strongly over time? Have you tried oils or conditioners on Badalassi (I'm interested in color change)? I'm asking this because I know you have a tendency to experiment and because I'm concerned about the color change. I would probably order...

    Aero 1920s Work Coat Collar...

    I made a lot of discoveries about jackets and about life in general when I saw the old catalogs of Sears and Montgomery Ward. And including me, too, now like jackets of this length.

    What does Aero call this leather color? I saw there only Tobacco and Russet.

    How to really soften stiff, thick leather? Extreme methods only!

    I am not very experienced in large leather goods. I have done this many times with only small functional leather parts of large mechanisms. I can only argue about the long-term softening effect. But it was a lot of kinds of leather.

    If there are such reviews, then you will certainly see them. I cannot hide here, and even more so from my devoted readers.

    Then drowning your pants in glycerin might be a good option.

    How to really soften stiff, thick leather? Extreme methods only!

    Alcohol is a very old recipe for shoes. But this is primarily for temporary softening to make it easier to make the desired shape. And there is almost no long-term softening effect from alcohol. Exactly the same as for a person :)

    I'm happy for you. And I'm glad that any reviews about all sellers appear here. Although conditionally not positive reviews are difficult to find. Particularly enterprising manufacturers fill the forums with their ambassadors or praise themselves using a lot of accounts.

    Post Thedi Leather Jacket Photos Here........

    All that someone does not like is trolling? This is a very comfortable position. I have a lot of hypotheses about you but I don't tend to be demagoguery here. I hope that the moderators will respond to inappropriate phenomena here.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Are you planning on waxing your jacket? This may be a strange question, but I'm curious.

    How to really soften stiff, thick leather? Extreme methods only!

    Glycerol. It's not extreme, but safe and somewhat effective. I've tested on a lot of leather but not on jackets. And yes. I'm also interested in other ways.

    Post Thedi Leather Jacket Photos Here........

    Your photos are definitely very helpful. In full height and at normal foreshortenings and without any light correction. This is exactly what is needed for the most accurate understanding. I was interested in Thedi in this particular jacket model of horsehide. Now I see that whatever Thedi does...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    IMHO You can create your own thread on the forum. I would even ask a bunch of questions that are inappropriate to do here.

    <<< age appropriate jackets >>>

    Actually... For any motorcycle jacket, the main thing is to choose the right size. And age and gender and other parameters are secondary :) .

    Post Thedi Leather Jacket Photos Here........

    I'm sorry but I have to clarify. Did you give Thedi special wishes about breast size?

    Was it made to your measurements? Breast size was chosen by Thedi or is it your choice?

    If you are not a businessman or a clerk then all third party opinions are not important :)

    IMHO It's too small size/tag for you.
