    Leather Olympics - Your Top 3

    This sure was a fun thread. I wonder how much everyone's top 3 has changed in a year... Here's my updated list: 1) Good Wear Bronco in russet Shinki 2) Diamond Dave Buco J-21 in black Shinki 3) Vanson Model B, black/Aero Highwayman in brown CXL It's hard to pick between these two...

    Damn you for getting my hopes up, Bunyip! When I noticed a new message was posted I was dying to see some pics.

    Aero 1930's HB and Premier Highwayman

    I'd greatly appreciate that :) maybe a few pics will push me over the edge to pull the trigger on a 618HH myself.

    Aero 1930's HB and Premier Highwayman

    Awesome jacket and fit! You went with the perfect size IMO. Say, I'm also located in the Netherlands; if you ever feel the need to get rid of the size 38 618HH, please think of me first :)

    Lost Worlds jackets.

    I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it. I'm also thinking JJ means to reset and re-envision the series. I just hope episode VIII goes in a more interesting direction, instead of rehashing previously told stories (however awesome those stories may be). I think it's awesome your wife worked with the...

    Black jacket with brown undertones?

    I'd ask the jacket company you're considering if they have any black over brown leathers. Diamond Dave sure has a few great "tea-core" leathers. I'd shoot him a mail if I were you.

    Aero jacket lining -- Midweight or Heavyweight tartan?

    ^agree with all of the above. I chose the tartan mostly for looks, and I went with the heavyweight for added durability. Turns out it's very comfy as well. Don't worry about heavyweight tartan being too warm in the summer-- when it's THAT hot outside, it's just too hot for any jacket, period. If...

    Aero jacket lining -- Midweight or Heavyweight tartan?

    I have 2 jackets lined in the heavyweight tartan. To me, when you're spending over 600 quid on a tough leather jacket, it's worth the £25-50 (depending on jacket style) upcharge for added durability and hefty feel. I only handled a sample of the lightweight tartan and to me it just seemed to...

    First Aero leather jacket - Advise needed

    I'd go for brown FQHH. It isn't all that heavy in my opinion, their 4.5oz steer is a hard mistress. I've been working my Highwayman for over a year and I'm still hardly getting any results. But then again, I rotate between 3 jackets. A CXL FQHH jacket feels heavy and tough, but when you wear it...

    Diamond Dave - Buco J-21

    I see! That's a really nice backpack. I'm glad the design choice worked out for ya :) double-breasted motorcycle jackets can look very cool without the epaulettes, just look at the Langlitz Columbia. Of course, you can have that made with the epaulettes as well. I couldn't imagine my Buco...

    Diamond Dave - Buco J-21

    Mere words don't do justice to that stunner of a jacket you got there, A-1. Incredible... Can't wait to see fit pics. I see you requested the epaulettes to be removed, why's that?

    New Diamond Dave Shinki Horsehide Buco J-100
