    FS: Aero Modified Board Racer Black Vicenza HH (40)

    That's possibly the best I've ever seen the collar on a Cafe Racer fit anybody when done up...

    A visit to leather jacket heaven in Thessaloniki - Thedi Leathers!

    What zipper is it on that one, Riri or another? Thedi seem to have an interesting selection of nice zippers.

    A visit to leather jacket heaven in Thessaloniki - Thedi Leathers!

    Brilliant! Looks great. That's the jacket I have my eyes on (that I posted previously, in that instance with the added mouton collar and shearling lining). What are the measurements for your jacket? Fit appears to be spot on.

    Who’s going to pick up this Himel Bros?

    Let's hope not! Speaking of, ahem, "unique tastes", check this thing out which Sefridges chose to email me to advertise today... it's brilliant in a terrible way:

    Sears Vertical Zip Map Pocket motorycle jacket

    I thought a map pocket was just the name of any pocket big enough for a traditional map? Some jackets have it in the lower back, internal or external. For example:

    Who’s going to pick up this Himel Bros?

    Maybe I'm too conservative in my clothing, but to me, that's another Himel atrocity. There's good and there's bad in this world, and then there's Kanye West clothing level atrocious, and Himel occasionally enters that elite sphere. :confused: Don't get me wrong, he makes some lovely stuff that...

    Why Should I Buy A Vanson?

    Ok, gotcha. I've seen what's known as double welting on furniture, but equally I see it making sense to call a twin set of single welts as double too. I've also seen single welts on pockets referred to as piping here, but piping on furniture seems to involve cord inside the single welt... I've...

    Has anybody seen ____ around Lately?

    I saw a post where he said he had just recovered from a nasty bout of Covid. I hope he's doing well. When I first posted on this board he was one of the first to make me feel welcome.

    Everyone looks 7 foot tall when posing in front of that door! :D

    Why Should I Buy A Vanson?

    I love the design of this jacket. You don't see many D-pockets like that. So many nice details all come together brilliantly! Out of curiosity, what do you mean by the handwarmer pockets being 'double welted' as opposed to just welted?

    A visit to leather jacket heaven in Thessaloniki - Thedi Leathers!

    You guys really make me want to go... A quick look on Skyscanner says flights are only £26 return, which is less than I could get to the airport for!

    Who’s going to pick up this Himel Bros?

    Skinki produce a lot of different types of leather, some I think are far more desirable than others. Also, the percentage of each skin that is used also impacts the price- if one maker is determined to use every inch and another discards 60% and only uses the choice cuts, there's going to be a...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    They look terrific! I was gifted a pair of sneakers made by RM Williams and they're great, so I'd happily buy from that company. £400ish is pricey, and the top end of what I'd want you spend, but then again I have blown that sum on jeans before... :oops: Edit: In case anyone was interested...

    Perfecto Style Moto Jacket for Ladies (need suggestions & advice!)

    I like that jacket a lot too. There's also a brown version with a detachable mouton collar and a detachable shearling vest-liner that looks good to me:

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    I can imagine the Moc Toes are comfortable, because my Red Wing Chukkas share the same sole and are my most comfortable boots, that I can happily wear all day. When I was younger I wasn't much of a boot fan, but I now find it easy to buy comfortable pairs. The only time I'd avoid boots for...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    I had a smart pair of Chelsea boots that I used to wear for work, that I loved. They had elastic both sides, that survived perfectly intact for the 7 or 8 years I had the boots. They fit like a sock, and if they'd have been made from better leather I'd still have them. I've struggled since to...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    I think you've chosen the best looking boot they sell, and a good choice of leather too. Excellent choice! The CXL boots I've seen have not aged gracefully (most of their legacy boots appear to be CXL). I love the look of CXL jackets, but boots, like Wolverine's 1000 miles, don't crease nicely...

    Who’s going to pick up this Himel Bros?

    Having never in my life seen one in the wild, as a I imagine most haven't, all we can do is look at it and apply logic, before someone lets us know their first hand experiences. In my mind's eye I could see the process looking something like the one you get with international rugby jerseys, that...

    I thought this was inside out until I looked more closely! Haha
