    Leather trucker jacket opinions?

    I have a couple Vanson Cheyennes, they where made for the Japanes market and might have a different pattern, but i fid them a bit baggy and shapeless: I also have a Lee one which i actually prefer: As i think it fits more like an original: If it was me i would look around for a...

    Regular CXL HH Vs CXL FQHH

    It's actually black not brown, it's just that the top coat is very thin and almost see through. It's weird becuuse both of these jackets where made from hides coming from the same batch of Horween CXL HH. It's IMO a good demonstration of the natural variation you can get from the same leather...

    Regular CXL HH Vs CXL FQHH

    Regular CXL HH Vs CXL FQHH

    If you ever found a pair of these in your size you would disappear like A1, i know it... It's a shame no one told Poell his leather wasn't suitable for clothing.

    Regular CXL HH Vs CXL FQHH

    Stuart told me their tanned hides are "sides" as pictured here: If you ask for extra heavy they will use the butt for certain pieces like the back or the upper yoke. Not every jacket gets butt, but not every jacket is 100% front quarter.

    Regular CXL HH Vs CXL FQHH

    How dare you imply Master Ken is wrong about anything? If he says it, it is true. He invented teacore, and he invented the FQHH tag!

    Regular CXL HH Vs CXL FQHH

    Regular horse hide comes from the entire horse, FQHH comes from the front quarter of the hides. According to Master Ken: "The only section of a Horse hide that's suitable for clothing is the Front Quarter although the belly area is often retaiuned these days it's usually too stretchy. The mane...

    Lost Worlds J23 - Size 46 full Crown zips, belt, collar

    The collars from my J23 and J 24 are not interchangeable, the snaps are all at slightly different places, a collar needs to be matched to a specific jacket. As @oneterrifichog said Stuart asks that you send the jacket or collar back when ordering a new collar so he can make sure the new one fits.

    Field Leathers

    Nerd pattern question: I notice that Gregs patterns all have a proportionally small front of the chest. When i look at pics of my LW J-23 i see that the front panels have a small fold of extra material at the front of my armpits because of slightly too much material in the front pit to pit. It...

    Field Leathers

    Windflaps are only necessary on a motorcycle jacket. His jackets aren't motorcycle jackets, thus they IMO don't need a windflap. On foot you will never walk/run fast enough to get wind ingress through the zipper, even strong wind won't get through. It's really only necessary at speed on a bike.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    As Jin said, this is a WWL 41, basically a Columbia/Columbia 47 mix and match. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/johnson-leathers-wwl-41.102642/
