This is great, thanks. What are your thoughts on their standard sheep versus standard (not vege) cow? Obviously the colour choices are different, but what about comparing black to black?
From what I am reading and seeing, it sounds like the LL options are:
Horse - not very special.
Sheep - midweight and soft. Recommended
Cow - unknown. No reviews
Vegecow - superb midweight but at a hefty premium.
Is that fair?
I posted pics of the jacket Damon made himself in the other thread, but I didn’t mention the reason I contacted him was to ask how he’d feel about doing a custom LL lighting. He seemed to like the idea.
Did you order from Japan or a local shop? Anything else you can say about the fit, the leather and the hardware? Thanks! This is definitely my favorite jacket of the week, hahah.
It looks fantastic on you. I’m still kicking around ideas for my next jacket, but one that I keep coming back to is having Johnson Leathers make me a LL L402 in a midweight horse or steer.
I sized-up to 33 because I understood whipcord has less stretch than denim. Still too tight!
Gustin are now officially sh*t. This is my second order to arrive late and out of spec. They are having a lot of issues with the factory they contract with in San Francisco.
The Gustin folks are...
I work in the old Hughes Tool Company building, on the top floor where Howard Senior had an office. It is said that his ghost still prowls around, though I have not seen him.
I don't suppose anyone here has experience with Gap leather jeans?
There is a pair on eBay in my size that is awfully cheap. It's an itch I want to scratch - strutting around the house like the Lizard King, though I can't see myself ever stepping out the front door in leather trousers - so...
They do a 10H and 11H size, so I’m cautiously optimistic (I’m a 10H in RMW) but waiting for them to give me measurements in mm before I get too excited.
all I know is that the post was from this shop: http://store-motostyle.jp/
I bet Greg Field or Johnson Leather could make a similar, minimalist cross zip to your specs that you would also like.
