    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    These two pics just made me completely reevaluate my views on leather trousers!

    Taylor Stitch x Golden Bear Moto Jacket

    I placed an order for a custom Simmons-Bilt this week. Under $900 delivered, with the hardware, lining and Horween horse hide of my choice and customized arm and body length. It's not completely made to your size, but pretty close. The TS-GB looks nice, but I'd suggest spending a little bit...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Nice. Would look even better if Ukrainian Sports Illustrated girls were in the photos.

    Army boots, Danish m/58. Which do you use?

    I have a pair of Australian army black GP boots I was issued, that I've hardly worn in the past 30 years. I also left with several other pairs in the later issued 'baby poo mustard' colour that we got after switching to DPCU camo uniforms. I wore those out hiking and traveling, since they didn't...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    With a tug, the cuff is back down sitting on the bottom strap. Edit: I forgot I had a pair of Ciano Farmers I never liked that much (tagged W32 but feel much bigger) that are a 9” opening:

    What do you wear under your jacket?

    Turtleneck and leather jacket is a good look. The Brit bikers of the 50s and 60s would wear surplus submariner jumpers/sweaters with their cross-zips. If I lived somewhere colder, I would.

    What do you wear under your jacket?

    T shirts. Maybe a black denim shirt occasionally.

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Wider than the straight leg fit? It's hard to find jeans with a hem over that 8.5". I guess for now I'll just keep doing the "cuff check" tug after I stand up.

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Where does the hem of your jeans hit on theses? I was expecting it to sit about on the lower strap. 8.5” cuff straight leg jeans and they still ride up when I sit down then get stuck up there. Every time I stand up, I need to tug my jeans down or they look like the pic below. I love the boots...

    Leather choices ...

    Thanks. I’ve spent the last week scrunching up and stretching these little scraps of leather! It’s really hard to gauge the thickness/weight, but I got an email this morning telling me the weights of my top four faves. The Milan doesn’t seem to make hard (knife edge type) creases, not a lot of...

    Enlisted vs. officers at social dances

    ^ That always looked odd to me in old America war movies. At least in more recent times in Australian service, you wear your uniform while you are ‘at work’ and if you are off base then you change into off duty clothing. Especially if you are going to the pub! The one exception is ANZAC Day...

    WTB: Black Cross Zip leather jacket, 40-42

    I just sold mine on the Schott forums - might be worth seeing what else pops up there.

    Leather choices ...

    I’ll take a few more days to play with the leather samples and think about it, but I’m pretty much sold on the Horween Milan. At 3oz, the weight is probably just what I need. When I set out on this adventure, I justified this purchase by telling myself I already have a heavy leather jacket...

    Happy birthday! Love the Bintang shirt. Hope you enjoyed the chick parm. Are you at Hillary's?

    I’ve asked SB to send me pics of these leathers made-up, but in the meantime I found examples of the Lux and the Milan right here on the forum:
