    Inspiration LA 2019 - Who’s going? | Recommended spots to visit in LA

    @Superfluous Is that a brown Kensington you are wearing at Himel Bros. booth? What leather is it? Every time I see the Kensington it's making it harder and harder to justify any other cafe racer.

    Ever come across a high quality canvas or waxed canvas Cafe Racer?

    I've only come across one by Thedi that looks fantastic but was priced the same as their leather jackets which seemed excessive to me.

    Heavy Canvas Cotton Duck Work Pants Where do I buy them?

    Another option for Made in USA is Earl’s apparel. Great quality and super reasonably priced. I have their fatigue pant and duck work pant. They aren’t a slim fit but are a terrific value for MIUSA apparel. The retailer sells under a variety of brand names, Gung Ho, Stan's, Earl's Apparel, etc...

    Inspiration LA 2019 - Who’s going? | Recommended spots to visit in LA

    I've always thought the same thing, wishing it was somewhere closer to me :). Sadly Rin Tanaka is an LA guy so it probably makes more sense for him to have near his own home. Kind of selfish if you ask me...:(

    Thedi custom cow hair panels grizzly

    The brown color on the leather has so much depth. What kind of leather and what do they call that color? That's simply stunning!

    Questions About the United States Navy Peacoat

    I'm curious to see your images. I've sewn countless buttons but never on my Peacoat (5 y/o Sterlingwear Authentic) because they don't sew through the lining. I love the jacket but every year the two most used buttons unravel. I drive by the Sterlingwear factory/retail store often on the way to...

    Vintage Photos of Leather Jackets

    I just love those WW2 aviator era caps with the long, soft brim. Papa Nui makes a nice repro these days.

    Crumple or Hang?

    I picked one up at a flea market (we call him Otto as it had the initials O.T.O. scribbled on the fabric). It scares the crap out of lots of people when walking through my home office :).

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thanks, I appreciate your input. You are right about when it's zipped. It's not the chest that's tight, it's my winter gut that's the problem :(. I can zip it just fine but with an extra 8-10 lbs on me, it's snug in the midsection. Some minor changes in eating habits can make a big change. Time...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Actually I wondered if it was too short. It looked OK to me but feels different. Never had a jacket this short. I'm new to leather jackets, my other being an ELMC Californian. It's about the same length but this FQHH is so much heavier, it just feels odd to me. I'm used to longer outerwear in...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    @Superfluous saw some different pics I posted at styleforum (or he's clairvoyant). Thanks. I assumed it's just standard black CXL FQHH. I bought it via ebay so I'm not 100% sure.

    Vintage Hoodie

    Overlord Brand makes vintage inspired military t-shirts and sweatshirts (crewneck only right now). Their tees are quite good and very reasonably priced. Haven't tried the sweatshirts yet. Just noticed tees are on sale right now. https://overlordbrand.com
