    Five Star Leather Jackets

    Sounds Awesome. can't wait to see which one you end up with. I am assuming the J82 is a cross zip? Would love to see you back on the dark side with some M/C jackets again.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    One six ouncer isn't enough? You need more? lol. I love it. Any details on this incoming black one?

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I have to fully agree. If I would have bought a 618/613 when I bought my first MC (1980 shovelhead), I would have never bought another leather jacket again (until I outgrew it, of coarse, lol). Simply badass Marker. Don't even think about it OneHead, just do it. It is almost a must have with a...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    47 degrees last weekend, 85 degrees today and the 618 handled both extremes. Cross zips are great M/C jackets. Snap open the lapels, open the sleeve and pocket zips to let in some air. With a proper/snugger fit the jacket doesn't balloon up. A little warm in town, but fine at highway speeds.

    Brave Star question

    I was unsure of a quality difference. Good to note.

    Brave Star question

    Please post your thoughts on these. Curious to see what you think about 25oz and IH. Hope you get them soon.

    Brave Star question

    I am new to the raw denim scene. Now that I have a couple of pairs, I don't think I will go back to "mall jeans" again. I bought my first pair of Bravestar 21oz jeans last fall. I thought they would work good on the bike and they do. I don't really need chaps anymore when the temps drop in the...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thank you Pete. I really like Schott leather. The steer and horse are noticeably different. I am not a fan of the pebbly stuff either.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    We are having the same wacky weather as the rest in the midwest. Blustery, low 50's, perfect weather for the road glide and my steerhide 618. Still trying to break this guy in. Just been putting wear on him, hasn't even been wet yet. I am gonna stick with honest wear and no accelerated break-in...

    Belt and epaulets removed- who can put them back?

    I am almost positive Schott does this repair. I thought I read on their forum that they can replace both rather easily. I think the only problem would be matching the leather. As long as it is pretty close, it should be unnoticeable to the general public.

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    Who are the 3 oldest leather jacket producers STILL IN BUSINESS TODAY? I think Lewis is the oldest followed by Schott. Yes/no, who would be the third?

    Pants you wear with your leather jackets

    I never looked at the numbers. I usually wear relaxed fit jeans and didn't have a problem with the fit on the "true straight" jeans from Bravestar. I am not a skinny jeans dude. lol. Hope you find what you are looking for. I am hoping for some Iron Hearts for the fall riding season. Probably...

    Pants you wear with your leather jackets

    @JustinW, I am pretty sure Brave star sells a 21oz double black selvedge jeans for about $128 or so. I am a rookie in raw denim. I only have 2 pairs but I am quite pleased with the price and quality.

    Why Should I Buy A Vanson?

    Awesome write up Ton. That is one badass E. Perfect amount of wear. I wish they still made them like that. Your E and doubleH's E are MILES apart. The new model E's look like cheap Chinese knock offs compared to yours. Never let that one go. I hope to see MANY more pics in the WJAYWT thread.

    Post pictures of your jacket collection

    I was hoping you grabbed that one up. Can't wait to see more pics of that one.

    Post pictures of your jacket collection

    Very impressive collection of motorcycle jackets Mendel. You are giving JMax a run for his money in that division. I thought for sure Ton snagged up that badass "E". That looked like one fine specimen from "finds and deals".
