    The Flathead Rider Jacket (Last Ever?)

    Yeah I'm so glad I bit the bullet and bought one of their Cafe Racers, even more so now they are closing down....it is the jacket I get the most compliments on and with the Teacore Shinki looks the most like an actual vintage piece out of all the jackets I have.

    Durable Horsehide Cafe racer? c.1954

    Now that's interesting! It might also explain why Schott haven't ever produced an actual accurate Brando jacket. They buy Durable and then technically did make the Brando jacket, or at least now own the company that did. Maybe they don't have the pattern???

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Lol that’s the very thing that has delayed me listing and selling the Diamond Dave j-100 now I have the ELMC J-100.....what if “something”happens to the ELMC [emoji33] It’s not like I don’t have the Aero J-100, the Flat Head CR in a similar style or the 2 other CR I have....Pure insanity .....

    Buying jacket online. Sizing etc.

    I'm pretty sure there is a Melbourne stockist of Aero jackets that can order one for you if they don't stock it. Why not track them down and try some on? Here you go https://pickingsandparry.com/pages/contact-us

    Damn that is nice!

    Vintage Cafe Racer with closest look to Buco j-100?

    LOL gone already @Monitor I would have thought a Brooks Gold Label would be a great alternative to an actual Buco. There are enough of them around for you to pick a nice one at a decent price. Sure the back is quite different but its still a great style.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    So we've see the stock Storm Cuffs, Zipper Cuffs and now Button Cuffs on the Bootlegger! All 3 seem to work really well with the style but think I like these buttons cuff the best though. Any shots of the Teamster back?

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Thanks for the enabling guys, I can always count on you!! But seriously, I was supposed to sell 2 jackets before buying this one [emoji23] At least one is listed so I’m almost half way there right? So maybe in the future but not right now....the espresso colour does look really nice...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Don’t the USA and UK/Australia place the zippers on opposite sides to each other?

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Thanks guys. I’ve been trying it on with various thick hoodies, sweaters etc that I would wear under it and I think it’s just right, it’s almost identical in measurements to my Navy Board Racer size 42 ......the only problem now is there is a very small voice whispering....what about a...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Absolutely! I’ve really been wanting another Thedi since I sold my previous Black version of this one.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Thedi Buffalo Quilted Phenix in Caffe courtesy of Thurston Bros. Definitely a more relaxed fit for me (size Large) but this is specifically to layer under, something I couldn’t really do in the Medium I had previously. Despite that my head is screaming “It’s too big! Size down!” and “You can...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    True, that could work, I just don’t think the premier fit is great for a muscular build. On another note, wearing Black ELMC Californian today....and a familiar box has been delivered! Definitely have that “excited yet reluctant to open it” feeling ..... really hope the colour is what I’m...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I’ll be honest @ton312 that is a great catch for the price you paid. A custom premier Highwayman will cost a bomb compared to that and I just don’t think the narrow shoulders of the premier fit will work well for you.

    Cost me $300 to get the liner replaced in my Brooks here in Sydney.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Looks great @Fonzie I really like the brown zipper tape to go with the brown base! I’ve got that on my Diamond Sportwear J-100 as well, looks great once you get a little of the brown base showing through.

    A visit to leather jacket heaven in Thessaloniki - Thedi Leathers!

    He does have a waxing (or washing) technique that makes leather look aged but it’s not “distressing” in the typical sense. (From what I understand anyway). But that’s a specific leather style request, he definitely does untreated leather as well.

    A visit to leather jacket heaven in Thessaloniki - Thedi Leathers!

    This is the only way I could be taken into the Thedi store without blowing every cent I own. I'd need my mouth gagged as well so I couldn't just shout orders at them.....
