    Leather Surgery Q

    I feel a lot more comfortable in jackets that are "experienced" .. so every now and again I find myself with one with a damaged top coat or rot. In the past I've used rubber cement then dye to delay the inevitable deterioration and make a jacket more wearable. (jacket's still going to be around...

    Vintage Cal - It's changing my outlook on things

    2nd Cal in as many weeks, fresh out of a long hibernation in an LA storage space. I've owned LWs before so I feel comfortable saying this is a beast of a well made and well executed jacket. Non- gusseted, which I dig and I don't know if this is common on Cal sleeve end's but not only are they...
