    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    Has anyone applied leather conditioner to naked cowhide? Grail from schott used to say not to, as this would clog the pores. However my naked cowhide jackets have no water resistance, so I am babying them a lot more than I usually would

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

    Just picked up a vanson, which are harder to come by. This is a collab with left field and the leather feels amazing. Unfortuantely it’s too big for me, sigh….

    Do try this at home: leather jacket repair tips

    I have a name cowhide jacket I got recently. Part of the leather got wet recently, and where it dried I can see a very faint outline (the part that was wet is a slightly different shade to the rest of the jacket, and the part where the wet and dry parts meet has a grey-white tint). I tried to...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    New piece from me, a golden bear leather jacket (not vintage golden bear, but a piece from when they moved construction back to the UK). Construction seems very sounded. Leather is decent, but a bit too spongy. That being said, love the colour and the fit, I think this may be my daily jacket

    Brooks leathers

    Feel like it might be worth sharing my gold label: When I got it it was in great condition. However there was mouldy smell to it. Put it in the tub for 30 mins and sprayed some vinegar on it and the smell was mostly gone. However the leather was now super dry: Bought some leather conditioner...

    Brooks leathers

    How are Brooks current offerings? Seen a lot of old brooks mentioned here, but seems like they’re still active? E.g. https://www.brooksleather.com/511n-road-warrior.html This one looks like their old cafe racers and is still made in the US

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Haven’t worn this schott in a while and honestly don’t remember why. Was in my head about it being too ‘loud’, but after wearing it again I was definitely over analyzing it before

    Fit check: Aero x Thurston Bros. Sheene in blackened brown Vicenza

    Looks great. Only 2 comments from me: 1) what’s the length? It seems to err on the short side 2) This may not suit your style, but imo this jacket would look better when worn with slimmer jeans. I think the shortness of the jacket and the slimness of the sleeves means that currently the jeans...
