    I need a proxy in Japan and like yesterday!

    I find Buyee not confusing and simple to use and navigate. Maybe I can help you with using Buyee? There is also From Japan. I have never used them but may be easier for you to engage with. Anyway, I am here to help with Buyee if you need it. How can shipping to Croatia be more than to Canada...

    Double Helix Works?

    Sometimes you need to see this stuff in person. I would have never given Real McCoys a chance until I checked out some of the jackets in person. Now I would buy one no questions asked. On the flipside I had the opportunity to check out Lewis Leathers in person and was very disappointed. Gloves...

    Double Helix Works?

    I checked out Double Helix stuff a couple years ago at their shop and I will echo what dude says above. The patterns were good and quality seemed nice but they fit small. I was a large or a 42 instead of a Medium or 40 like I am in Rainbow Country or Freewheelers. I ended up buying a Rainbow...

    What are the makers that DO NOT 'skiv their leather or use glue'?

    Torfjord, it is quite simple. Wear as thick of an unskived jacket as possible, wear the thickest denim possible, wear only nail-down not stitch-down boots with triple thick sole, eat cold gravel for breakfast and walk to to school backwards up the mountain in -30 weather. You have to earn this...

    Cordovan leather jackets - what do you really think?

    I love cordovan I just do not like Horween's #8 version of cordovan. I had an old jacket in cordovan that was almost purplish and oxblood at the same time. Loved it but I left it with someone for a reline and it was taken apart, never finished, forgotten, looked for, then lost, yadda yadda yadda.

    Experience in Freewheelers leather sizing?

    The wool in my wool-lined FW jackets is on par with what is in my Rainbow Country jackets. Not overly thick at all and my Journeyman has a very thin moleskin lining which makes it nice for spring and fall so not all FW jackets have a thick lining, but others ideas of thick may differ than mine...

    (Sold) Wesco Warren Burgundy/ Reddish Brown Horween Waxed Flesh 8.5 D like new

    Chonky? Seen that word used on Reddit for boot reviews. I assume an internet word of the day and a play on the word chunky which these boots are not. These guys have boots that are chunky. No eyeballing. I have had Wesco before and know how Wesco fit so I ordered my appropriate size and they...

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    I have a sample of their horse and it is nice but nothing special considering the significant price jump. I like my cowhide Timberline and when I was working on ordering a Cascade I could not justify the extra $1200 upcharge for horse, plus, the medium cow is thicker which for a motorcycle...

    This jacket is too nice to just hang in a closet. X-Mas special - I will cover shipping to USA/Canada. Make an offer, let's make a deal.

    Which Jacket Brand Has the Best Resale Value?

    The only used jacket that holds value is the exact one someone else happens to be looking for otherwise you will lose no matter what.

    (Sold) Wesco Warren Burgundy/ Reddish Brown Horween Waxed Flesh 8.5 D like new

    Tuition bills are coming up again so these are still available. Get these cheap with no crazy 5 month wait. I'll keep these if they don't sell in the next month but would prefer the cash to pay tuition.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I love the Colimbo Stockman. I wanted one for a few years now (still do) but I am between sizes in that jacket and it just would not work. I tried a deerskin one on in Japan a while back but ended up with a Rainbow Country Spider car coat instead which is similar to the Stockman. The Stockman is...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Love the arch in White's and that is the reason I own 6 pair. I can be in a pair all day and when I take them off I want to put them right back on again.

    What Are The Hottest Leather Jacket Brands of 2021?

    2 Freewheelers purchased this year, a Journeyman and Trackwalker. But one Freewheelers Switchyard purchased in 2020 is big on me and for sale. Two FW in and one FW out. No plans to buy more jackets as I have all I will ever need and more. If anything I may sell a Colimbo and slim the...
