    COW strikes again . . .

    You edited your post afterwords. Before, and the one I quoted was just a Fcuk off. It was clear what you meant.

    COW strikes again . . .

    Little boy’s shouldn’t throw stones. If someone called you a pimp it would be okay would it. Hypocrite.

    New jacket issues

    Never seen goat in cordovan. SB do a burgundy which is what yours is in their Clayton HH. That’s a much lighter full grain vegetable tanned English hide by a very long standing tannery. I’ve had a swatch and it is very nice leather and much closer in weight to the old US forties and fifties FQHH...

    New jacket issues

    If that was the Aero CXL heavy steer the stuff’s like a suit of armour. The lighter CXL steer I bought from Al a couple of years ago softened pretty well. It was easier to break in than CXL HH but it’s still not as easy to wear as a lighter leather.

    New jacket issues

    I replied to the other thread and pointed out that the Chrome FQHH is very stiff from the swatch I had of it. But it did soften with some kneading. So as I said then what I do is wear a new jacket around the house, drive a lot in it and wear it as much as possible. I sit on it rolled up for a...

    Yes you can’t upload picture here that are very big at all. I’ve had to resize some several times to get the site to accept them.

    Fair enough. Is he in the frame for this then?

    Block-Bilt: Website link-Never seen these jackets. Anyone?

    Still if you wanted a joke Japanese name… The fact that it is a real name would only add to the joke.

    Block-Bilt: Website link-Never seen these jackets. Anyone?

    Sounds like one of those joke Japanese names to me like Fuckutake, which Bob Maxwell used to name one of his holding companies; and did he take... He took the pensions of the Daily Mirror employees. Hiroshi Wantanabe? Wantabe what exactly?

    Block-Bilt: Website link-Never seen these jackets. Anyone?

    block-bilt leads to an active site and the other is inactive. Repetition can be deliberately misleading sometimes.

    Block-Bilt: Website link-Never seen these jackets. Anyone?

    As has already been pointed out to you by someone else a long way up the thread that is a different website. Block-Bilt is not the same site even it the name is similar. So why repeat it?

    Connelly Steerhide Aero HWM.

    Yes I do too and I wouldn’t sell it if it was my size. I’d love to get hold of one in my size at this price too. I'd snatch the seller's arm off.

    The simplest thing is to just click on Upload a File under the reply box. It will allow you to browse for the images on your computer.

    Block-Bilt: Website link-Never seen these jackets. Anyone?

    Does it say that they’re in Bedford somewhere? I’m not going back up the thread. There is zero information on the site’s whereabouts or an address anywhere on the site that I can find. I doubt if the company is in the UK at all, even if the site’s registered here. SB would know they had to...

    leather jacket torturing devices

    Find a manual workman and let him wear your jacket while he does his job. He will have it looking worn in - or out - in no time at all. Or you could just buy an old beaten up jacket and save some money….

    Connelly Steerhide Aero HWM.

    Any interest? If it was my size I wouldn’t be selling it because this hide is really very nice.

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    Sabu The Elephant Boy, as I live and breath. He became very well known after that eponymous picture. I had no idea he joined the US Air Force. If it was called that then. I suppose he ended up in Hollywood and got older.… The real stars were usually - but not always - given cushy numbers if...

    I take it you don’t want to hear the one about the young man from Ghent then?
