    Outlaw's schott 6141HH

    I know what you mean. It doesn't bother me at all, though. I just went with it and I like it :)

    Best 21oz denim?

    Yep, a lot of my jeans are low-rise. Thanks for the pic. It doesn't look too bad to me but I'm used to that "look" so it doesn't bother me. Great looking Irvin by the way, and the jeans are awesome. I might go with Samurai. Any word on Samurai vs. Iron Heart?

    Best 21oz denim?

    LOL, yeah, you're right... I have so many things planned to do with my money that it's getting harder & harder to add stuff to the list. But you're right, you get what you pay for. Those Iron Hearts look very fine and very dandy. Model IH-634S is in the headlights. How long do these typically last?

    Best 21oz denim?

    Very nice looking jeans, mowgli! Are those boots Wolverine 1000 Miles? Come to think of it a lot of my jeans might be low rise. Some are left overs from a couple of years ago, and as a teenager you tend to like low rise jeans. They look fine to me with all of my jackets. However, I'm not sure...

    Best 21oz denim?

    Dang... All of my jackets are short jackets (HWM, Schott Perfecto, cafe racer jackets). Will these jackets look bad with a pair or UBs? Or is it just 'hard to pull off'?

    Best 21oz denim?

    Sadly, 21oz jeans aren't offered in my country so I'll have to buy "blindly", so to speak. I think I'm up for the challenge, though. I like my jackets heavy so I'll probably like my jeans heavy as well.

    Best 21oz denim?

    Hi gents, I'm looking to buy my first pair of 21oz jeans. I've always worn cheap, regular jeans found in fashion stores in town. Think Levis, Garcia, Chasin', Cars, etc. Most are kids brand and you've probably never heard of them. I want to up the ante and buy a high-quality, heavy duty pair of...

    Introducing my latest Aero Jacket - Brown FQHH Route 66

    Hi HD, Cool jacket! Badass yet refined and sophisticated. What are those boots?

    1930s/40s Leather Jacket pics

    Posts #3 and #4 are Dutch, I'd think! "De Wit" is more of a Dutch name and "lederkleding" is also Dutch.

    Aero Plainsman -- Seal Vincenza Horsehide

    ^ +1. I'd love to see those boots!

    What is it about horsehide?

    My Horween Steerhide jacket smells divine, and the Horween FQHH sample I've got doesn't smell any less divine. I'd say they are identical meaning the smell is a result of the tanning process, though I'm not sure.

    Aero Plainsman -- Seal Vincenza Horsehide

    Jacket looks smashing, it seems to suit your posture very well! The Vicenza horsehide looks very rich, I really wonder how it'll age. I'm planning on ordering a 38-1711-p in that leather.

    Interesting Leather Tanning Report .pdf

    This reminds me why I chose not to take chemistry class... Interesting read, though.

    What is it about horsehide?

    There's this funny thing about Horween CXL steerhide when new... It's very stiff, like a bulletproofvest when I hang it on a hanger. But when I put on my HWM, I can move around in it very comfortably. It doesn't feel or look like a cardboard box when worn, the leather is very pliable when you...

    Introducing my latest Aero Jacket - Brown FQHH Route 66

    +1 on what winterland said. Great looking jacket and it suits you. Does look a bit oversized, though. As long as it feels good that's fine however.

    I believe it's a 1930s Half Belt with an added chest pocket, also both chest pockets seem to be horizontal instead of diagonal but it could be just the angle.

    Enjoy the jacket, the Model B is a gorgeous piece! The comp. weight cowhide breaks in very nicely... Next to Aero's Horween CXL steer/horse, it is the nicest leather I have ever seen.

    I know what you mean... When I had just started reading about Aero & eventually Thurston Bros. I read through this entire thread in 3 days. Best read of my life :) Aero Cafe Racer is gorgeous, especially the Fontana!
