    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    The cxl definitely makes it feel boxy but I really wanted an easy wearing jacket that I could add stuff underneath. I'm thinking about going back to tailor a more slim fit because I just remembered I live in California lol. That said man do I love looking at the cxl lol.

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    Great question. Now that I have mine for a while, I think I perhaps went too simple on the back. What I would do is add side panels so that I could create a tapered back silhouette, and then add a half belt to create a point for it to flair out a little like a fitted suit jacket. I've been...

    +1 for JL, especially if you're able to visit them.

    CX FQHH or CX Steerhide?

    Man, some great info in here! Regarding steer vs HH, very generally speaking, I can now spot the tendencies/differences between the two, just like I could with these vs lamb or goat, or even Kangaroo. What this thread has confirmed in my mind at least is that a tannery can make any leather look...

    First Aero, First Post, BIG Dilemma

    If you want cxl, get cxl. Short if shinki, nothing will live up to the hype per se. I love looking at my cxl jacket, there's just so much character to it and just feels different. And the smell, it just smells right. But it is not the most comfortable. It will never drape or hug you like a...

    Vehicles owned by Outerwear members?

    It is a great car, I had three of them. End of the day though they're really rough to just drive around in. Aside from those perfect days, just past sunset, driving under a canopy of trees through your favorite mountain road, keeping it in vtec with the top down, the car can be an absolute chore...

    Vehicles owned by Outerwear members?

    Man some mighty fine rides. I particularly loved the lifted e350 rig. I've been fortunate to have owned some great cars, but as of right now just got my pilot, sold my last sporty car almost a year ago now, taking a break since I tend to buy and sell them alot, but plan to but something...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    It's not, I barely get opportunities to wear it. The arms are creasing nicely and it doesn't stand on its own as easily anymore, but largely looks the same. I'm contemplating slimming it down, I mean I wanted the space so I can layer it up, but then it's still plenty warm for 95% of the time...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I know on my cxl that doesn't have the side panels, the forward reach movement is very good, but the jumping jack motion like putting your hands up is very limited, but I think it's more of a function of the bigger and therefore lower arm holes since I was going for a looser fit. I think in the...

    Why Should I Buy A Vanson?

    Agreed, I can't imagine a form fitting CXL being comfortable to ride, especially if the pattern isn't cut perfectly for you. The tin man effect with CXL is real, and if I didn't like the damn texture and smell of it so much, I'd probably would've given up on it, but I hear I sit with a CXL aroma...

    Red Wing Engineer 2268 steel toe boots on a motorcycle

    I am a new rider as well, and I ride a RE INT650. I took my MSF wearing my Danner Mountain Lights, not steel toed but the toe box has a similar bulk to it. I didn't like the feel of it, and for new riders like me feel is everything since my muscle memory isn't quite there yet. So I tried on...
