    The Man Purse Aka. THE MURSE YES or NO ?

    Yes, I'm not a big fan of the out of control PC movement. I believe you should be able to speak your mind without the worry of hurting feelings. I am not a discriminator though and accept everyone, and would befriend anyone who is a decent person. I just think it looks pretty feminine for a guy...

    The Man Purse Aka. THE MURSE YES or NO ?

    No Murses please! With 2 to 4 pockets in my jackets and 4 pockets in my pants, I don't need a purse. Remember when men had an air (aire) of respect and wouldn't be caught dead carrying a purse? What about a nice backpack if you have too much to carry? If you are carrying a laptop bag without a...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I just saw "The Land Unknown" (1957) - A super cheesy 1950's Sci-Fi. It was entertaining but what really surprised me is they had original WWII jackets in the film. During the flight scene in the helicopter, The pilot wears an AN-J-4 or M-445 shearling. Also in an earlier scene, an actor is...

    Flame resistance of leather?

    Nomex would be best. But leather, like nomex, will char and ash rather than flaming up and melting like nylon. Leather will work but consider the lining too. A cotton liner is much more flame resistant than a nylon liner, which could melt and flame up regardless of the leather on the outside. An...

    Black Lambskin Motorcycle jacket sugestions?

    We have a nice 2.25 oz lambskin in black available at Headwind Mfg Co. It has a nice matte chrome tanned finish. It is no doubt the softest leather I have ever handled.
