    Do try this at home: leather jacket repair tips

    My dad used to make me use Brasso and Never-Dull on both the Chris-Craft and the handles in his restaurant. Needless to say, I let brass dull down these days.

    Homage watches?

    It's funny, the other day in the Trader Joes, a guy was behind me and I asked if his watch was a 70s Pepsi Seiko. He replied it was a newer Tudor... Oops.

    The ultimative Denim Trouser Thread?

    I wash denim in the tub: cold with Woolite Dark. They dry outdoors in the shade (inside out). Then after a few years they end up in the machine.

    Homage watches?

    I really like the look of the Smiths, but they are going for $500-$600 on ebay.... There was another company doing a tropical dial Explorer that was around $500. I'll have to poke around. edit: oops, $580, here it is...

    Homage watches?

    Love that Wyler! For awhile I looked into an Explorer homage since I like the look and can’t afford a real one. Ultimately I settled on an older Tag Heuer 1000. Keeps great time, I can wear and beat it up, and now it looks even better on an old Beads of Rice bracelet I got on ebay for $12.

    Long (double) Riders?

    These are possibly “surcoat length” (I modified my earlier post). They were 26-27” long. A great length IMO.

    This one is great! I’d call it a surcoat.

    Extended Cold Weather Clothing System (ECWCS) discussion

    My son is a Junior in High School, and I’m trying to encourage him to be a foreign exchange student for a year before he goes to college… I did it and it changed my life. Exposure to other cultures and people is the best experience we can have IMO.
