    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Enjoying a major change in the weather - dropped 25 degrees F from the past few days and it's raining for the first time in months. Finally getting to wear this new-to-me Levi's Bluestar goatskin 1930s influenced jacket. Kind of similar to the short-waisted Menlo halfbelt, but this one just has...

    Vintage leather motorbike coat in need of repair

    Good point. So basically if the leather is crispy feeling on the surface but not so dried through that it's totally stiff? And yeh, Skidmore's actually recommends treating really dry leather from both sides. Of course, this often isn't possible with jackets; but I guess on a jacket that has a...

    Vintage leather motorbike coat in need of repair

    ^^^ To follow up on this, Urad is more of a topcoat and does not deeply rehydrate the leather. One of the best products for deeply conditioning really dry leather is Skidmore's. Available on Amazon. I actually prefer to mix it with petroleum jelly at about 1:1. Slather it on and let it soak in...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I think part of it is finding the right match / profile between top and bottom. To my eye, a bulkier jacket works better with a fuller fitting jean, but a slimmer fitting jacket works better with jeans that are closer fitting (not necessarily slim fit, just not such a baggy fit...). And yes...

    Ultimate Leather Conditioner Comparison (on Reddit)

    If the flaking is just superficial, you might be able to gently remove the worst of it. I did this on my 30s HH by getting these areas damp and then very gently rubbing with a little piece of wool cloth, and then with just the pad of my index finger in a small, circular motion. The cloth didn't...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    You could always just be off camera speaking as you demonstrate the process. Or do a voiceover in post-production. I think there's a lot of interest in out there on how to restore compromised leather since there are a lot of jackets, shoes, boots, bags... out there that look questionable (crispy...
