    Cross zip nation

    Ok, moment of truth. The leather: liberty black horsehide, good hand, good weight, feels a bit more like Eastman’s “American walnut Warhorse®” than Aero’s Vicenza. Maybe black Vicenza, certainly thicker than Eastman. The fit: all the measurements were done spot on. I feared it may be too large...

    Himel "The Imperial"

    I supplied the lining. This is his Horween leather (I don’t recall he calling it CXL, while we both are not sure exactly what it is, Horween for sure).

    Himel "The Imperial"

    Yes! The mustang! I had a GW A2 that’s from this hide, I think people remember that one with red knits (a couple of them were floating on the forum at one point). So mine was made out of very similar horse from Horween, honestly if it was also mustang I’m not sure while a possibility (a matter...

    Himel "The Imperial"

    My GW. The CXL is on the thin side, probably what Aero calls their choice for the East Asian market. Honestly, it came as a slight disappointment...

    Thedi! Thedi! Thedi!

    This is the elephant ear pocket more so than a “single welt”, it’s a classic Euro tradition as we have seen on many German, Italian and Swedish/Nordic vintage, almost exclusively so. For me it’s a major pet peeve as the stitching on the two corners are doomed to come loose...

    Cowboy Boots

    Just got these pair of Santa Fe resoled. They were mall boots, beautiful leather and workmanship but cheap rubber sole and heel. Felt very hard. Got them reworked at Izet of Stamford, CT, a true treasure guy, old shoe maker from Yugoslavia.

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Have a question for anyone who has made a pair of shoes or boots here, what’s the average number of hours taken to build a pair of boots? Using machines (wherever possible, but hand welt).

    Leather with Wool Liner

    I’m always curious about the “blanket” lined jackets. I know there are makers who use actual throw/blanket of the olden days and repurpose it, but “blanket” lining material, is it really the blanket we sleep under, or just called blanket but actually a thinner lining fabric made out of wool or...

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

    I have a pile of original 70s YKK that was made in the US, very study and high quality zipper in my opinion and I’d not be hesitant to use them on commercial jackets
