I do want to add that the problem is not the jacket length, but how we wear our pants these days. In the old days, men wore their pants really high up and it looked a lot classier. So you could wear a short leather jacket and it wouldn't look odd. But with these modern low rise pants, the...
Thanks for posting photos of your jacket Technovox. It is beautiful.
So, I just got back from a visit to Johnson Leathers. I spent 2 full hours speaking with Alan, who is incredibly knowledgable and wise. I ordered an M-100 in a size 40, adding 1.5 inches to the sleeve and 2 inches to the...
Hi All,
After reading through tons of posts here on FL, I've decided to purchase a Johnson M-200 jacket. I am fortunate enough to live 20 minutes from Johnson Leathers and am going to the shop tomorrow to place my order.
I was wondering if you owned a Johnson M-200 and if so, could you...
Hey Feltfan, thanks for meeting up with me and showing me your jackets.
And to everyone else, if you need a late night Johnson, you know who to PM: feltfan.
I can vouch for him!
I'd never heard of Johnson Leathers before, but through this forum I've heard nothing but excellent things about them. And since they are a 20 minute drive from my home, it can't be beat. And the price seems very reasonable.
Hi everyone. I'm ready to put in my order for a custom Aero jacket, and I'm wondering if there are any Aero owners in the SF Bay Area who would be willing to show me their jackets in person so I can make an informed decision. I know that Thurston Bros send you a fit jacket, but I just want to...

Thank you ProteinNerd and Edward. I spoke with Carrie at Thurston Bros and she recommended the Vicenza leather. I was leaning toward FQHH, but does anyone have any advice? Vicenza vs FQHH. Thanks!
Hey MB, amazing two tone jacket! Wow, man. It's pretty damn cool. I'm looking at a 38 or 40, also with 26" sleeves in the Aero Bootlegger. What is your height and weight? Because maybe I should go with the size 38 also, after looking at your photos. Thanks!
OK ProteinNerd, I'm sure you did a ton of research into the standard Bootlegger vs. the slim Bootlegger. What are the differences? I'm 6' and 70kg, but have really wide shoulders and a narrow waist. Any advice? And I'm leaning toward the black FQHH.
Howdy ProteinNerd. Thanks for the link. Your jacket looks fantastic. I'd love to see some updated photos, and also a back shot. What size did you order?
Question about the Bootlegger
Hi There, HD. I'm looking at purchasing a Bootlegger through Thurston Bros. in Seattle. I'm thinking about ordering one in Black FQHH. I'm wondering what size you are wearing in the photos. I am 6' tall and 155lbs, wiry and lean. I really like the way your...
I own a cafe jacket from Pegasus in Brown Horsehide. I've had it for several months and love it. It has aged beautifully and people love it. I would recommend Pegasus.
It seems like the Gaucho color is the lightest color that Frye offers in the Harness Boots. I like the idea of wearing them for a season and then staining them a darker color. Thanks for the tip.
It seems that some Frye boots are made in Mexico and some in the USA. Does anyone know how I can...
