Wore the Bravestar type III with a vintage Banana Republic vest which is kinda like an Aero Shackleton.
A comparison pic from last year in my JL Ryder for @red devil and @TLW '90 to show another way to style a leather vest
Yes I have a Premier Highwayman in black CXL FQHH
Mine does feel a little tight across the shoulders, and is not comfortable on my neck if I have it zipped all the way up. I've been working the area between the top of the zipper and the collar to try getting the neck hole area a little bigger...
Thanks @AeroFan_07 :)
Yes they’re White’s “Semi Dress” aka 350 I got from their eBay. Then I ordered another pair in black with the logger heel. These and my Wesco engineers get the most wear out of my small boot collection.
Yeah I really like this one - my worry is about fit. The Shangri-La jackets all seem like they'd be too long for me based on their listed measurements.
I also like the look of their wool Varenne a lot.
Also to elaborate more-
Getting another jacket from them I’d like to do something they’ve done a lot, in the closest stock size that makes sense, maybe with small mods (especially if sleeve is too long?) maybe not. Preferably in a heartier leather than the Horween Vermont from my last project...
Appreciate all the details!
Is that stock size 42?
Been wanting a padded jacket, possibly a columbia, chopper, or one of the Thedi offerings…this however looks really nice!
Look @JMax I’d love to share publicly but all I’m saying is I have a certain modicum of dignity I’d prefer to retain. Are we all not sinners here?
Thanks man! Surely the power of diverted attention all magicians rely upon is well-displayed here :)
I feel like Monitor has shared much...
Thanks y’all for sharing my excitement. I would say…I certainly have worn more ridiculous things in public so the fringe isn’t such a barrier. However this is one jacket I probably wouldn’t wear to the park with my kids. Probably.
@handymike yes I could see something ineffable being lost with...
Going by the Thurston Bros sale page I imagine they must sell a lot of it, we just don’t see it here much
Looks great- will be looking for your dedicated thread
Speaking of pulling it off…the Kehoe arrived!
The sleeves are definitely too long by 3 or 4? inches, overall length probably by a few inches. Gotta do something about it.
Condition is great. The leather is really nice! The fringe is insane. @handymike wasn’t joking about that thwap sound heh...
@red devil if you can pull off this extremely wide array of moto styles you can do pretty much anything, vest will be cake walk for you. Very small learning curve and you’ll be there!
