    I’ve only dyed shoes and belts, but in my experience you can’t dye lighter - you can only go darker.

    James Dean Indian Ranger. I keep looking at this trying to convince myself that I could pull-off a 24” back if I wore equally vintage high wasted trousers. https://www.brogueshop.com/products/aero-leather-indian-ranger-jacket

    Military style pants

    Holy thread revival, Batman! I was looking through this thread for info on Bronson, thinking I might pick-up a pair of their OG107s and then I saw this place. Has anyone here bought a pair of these? As a side note, they also have some union made pocket tshirts that might be worth investigating.

    Brave Star question

    my wait was also about six months, but he was moving from Richmond up to Dallas at the time. He always answered my emails asking for an update and always offered a full refund any time if I wanted to cancel the order because of the delay.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Sorry for thread derail but are you happy with Branson quality for the price? Are they tts and do they shrink at all?

    What do you wear under your jacket?

    I am that stupid. :oops:

    My New JL

    Thanks all. I should have taken a pic of the stitching although it is entirely unremarkable. I was a little worried about having it taken in as I'd read a few jacket alteration stories here, but they did it perfectly. I can't speak highly enough of how great Damon and Alan are . Gotta admit, I...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Greg can do no wrong it seems. My family just went out so I pumped up the AC and put mine on. I am still floored by the details I notice. Firstly, no other maker could fit a jacket with such tight tolerance and still have this level of comfort and movement. The dude understands human physiology...

    My New JL

    I just realized I never updated this thread after I sent the jacket back for Damon to take an inch off the whole torso. The fit is perfect now. Still roomier than my FL, but I think it matches the style perfectly. Once again, an absolute pleasure working with the Johnson guys on this!

    Brave Star question

    The fit is whatever you want it to be. Start with one of the three house fits and modify how you want. I started with the stock Miner cut for a straight leg and high waist on my first pair and then made a few tweaks. Quality is second to none. Best pocket bags I’ve ever seen (super thick and...

    Brave Star question

    Weight only tells half the story. I had a pair of 18oz with an open weave that we super soft comfortable and 14oz that were stiff and rough for their whole lifespan. I had some 23oz that didn’t feel so heavy and 15oz (see below) that felt like monsters. I wash them when they are dirty or start...

    The body is about an inch shorter than I’d want, but my thumb has been hovering over the pm button all afternoon, anyway.

    A question about vintage (/repro) denim...

    If you know what you are looking for, why not order custom from CianoFarmer? I have a custom pattern on file with him now, which is basically the ‘miner cut’ with an extra inch at the cuff (so it falls straight from the knee with no taper).

    I’m still churning over ideas for a black jacket and have some questions for the Vanson gurus here: Is the Gambler the same as the Arrow? Firenze and X150 are both listed as medium weight cow hides: what are the main differences? Did I read somewhere that Vanson will do custom orders? If I...
