I feel like the Enfield and 689 are cousins. I was interested in 689 but had to pass because the quilted lining would really limit use here.
Yours is great by the way, and wearing it all the time makes total sense!
Me too! My thinking is that I will generally be wearing the jacket zipped or half zipped and the additional movement for arms matters more than if I would be wearing this jacket open most of the time.
Makes you wonder if it would help with the notorious zipper tape tearing issue on Lost Worlds.
Thanks HM! Quick on the draw as always heh
Interesting thing came up re: snaps at the base of the zipper. They’re planning to use 2 snaps as standard on their stock version to help reduce tension on the zipper and zipper tape.
Came up when we were discussing making the collar longer by...
Turns out strength training makes you bigger, who knew? Didn’t make me taller though heh. Decided against D pocket this time around. I ended up going with the following after talking with Damon. Have til Tuesday to make any changes.
+1” longer front length
+1.5” chest and 1” bottom hem (these...
Thanks all for the input
I’m going to measure tonight and see what the ptp and shoulder come out to. May not need any more width if I go for the footballs, which was an excellent suggestion. Don’t really want the action back on this one.
@handymike I’m definitely going to ask for a longer...
Fitting arrived for my JL “Cascade”
They made up a new pattern for this design rather than using the CR-76 as originally intended. Damon said they’re planning to start offering it in their regular stock for those interested.
I really like how it turned out. I was on the fence about the lapel...
:D:D:D Hah thanks guys.
It seems both sacrilegious (or sacrilicious?) and necessary with the heat.
@Will Zach Yes! This is the logical next step. I guess I have no choice now
I received advice early on to wear long sleeves with my JL “Ryder” vest but I’ve gotta say, still feels good with the short sleeves. Avert your eyes if need be!
Cool photos and an interesting piece.
Perhaps someone in New Orleans would be interested, Fleur de Lis is iconic for the city and Saints football. Could easily see a football player or major fan going for it, or any wealthy New Orleanian. Not sure how you’d advertise here specifically though...
The 100 is their naked cowhide. I had a 141 cafe racer in it. It really is a nice hide. More matte / less shiny than the horsehide, substantial but wearable.
Yeah don’t remember which post but someone said they were told by Aero that they don’t like to do the trucker in their heavier leathers anymore
*Thanks Jin!
Thanks HM!
Crosspost but not sure if weather will let me wear this again any time soon.
Just got this vintage Midwestern Sport Togs deerskin pullover and totally loving it.
Definitely outside my usual fare but now that I have it, can’t imagine letting it go. I think I’ve only seen @Monitor rocking a...
Midwestern Sport Togs Black Deerskin Pullover came in.
I wasn’t sure if I would like it, and had started to feel buyers remorse before arrival. Heck a leather shirt? What was I thinking?
Upon opening the package all I was kinda blown away. It is far nicer than I expected! My first experience...
