Stumbled across this. Kind of out there. A short-sleeved leather jacket by Skull. I'm no way cool enough to pull it off.

I've never owned a leather jacket with button cuffs. That feels like it would be a pretty big failure point with thick leather pressing against it. Does the thread on the button wear out fairly often or is it generally pretty resilient?
Yeah most she just doesn't think it would look right on me. Having never even been on a motorcycle I'd constantly feel like I'm cosplaying a biker wearing the jacket so I tend to agree with her.
Really cool jacket. I don't think I've seen wool constructed into a type-3'ish trucker. I have an Iron Heart melton wool shirt jacket I bought back when I lived in Ohio and that thing is warm as heck. I don't think I've worn it since I moved to CA tbh.
I don't know Freewheeler's cuts very well but is the speed master their V-shaped jacket? I heard the Mulholland is more straight-shaped. I'm interested in the brand as my next possible purchase but unsure which cut works for my body which is indeed V-shaped.
You can pick up a pair of TCB off Okayama Denim or Denimio pretty cheap (well ... relatively.). Denim tastes fluctuate depending on where you're at. Like SuFu is all about TCB/Fullcount or what I'd categorize as "normal" jeans where if you pop over to /r/rawdenim if it isn't 44oz short-slub...
I've been really into raw denim for over a decade now and there are still so many brands, cuts and denim types I want to try out! The problem is you really need to wear the denim over a year to really understand if its working out for you so it takes a while. Like my Iron Hearts showed...
I've heard quite a few anecdotes about older generation being confused by the cuffing trend. I think back in the day you'd cuff your jeans mostly out of necessity for children who were growing into the pants. As an adult you expected to have the inseam tailored to your length. So seeing an...
It has the same number of zippers as this Iron Heart leather https://www.ironheart.co.uk/jackets/ihj-54-blk.html#/572-colour-black/835-size-s
I think it just looks way worse on this jacket since there isn't any fabric covering up any part of the zipper. I guess the IH one has the "back"...
So far I've bought all the items from an individual seller (seems like he must have bought out a store that shuttered) and the sizes were all listed there and have so far been accurate.

I've also been buying Flat Head stuff for a while...
With regret I have to sell this jacket. Its just too big on me everywhere by a few inches. Should have sized down.
Virtually unworn outside. I wore it around the house for a little while hoping it would grow on me but since I bought my Flat Head jacket I haven't worn it since. Very, very...
