    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I saw the yoke swap, though I was a bit confused by it since Aero has no shortage of CXL!

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I agree. And to be clear the extra cost for their customs is because they're making you a pattern (a certain b-word Canadians like to abuse) as opposed to adjusting length on a stock pattern, so I don't think it's unjustified. I love both makers. Stock Johnsons are about the price of stock Vansons.

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Cost is almost double Aero (and that's totally fine, but worth noting).

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    Yeah I could tell you did, just clarifying in case anyone thought the show was portraying the Cera gag as a cool look haha.

    Seeking Leather Specialist Recommendations for Horsehide Sleeve Alteration

    This whole situation has been a bit weird. The guy bought this jacket in a size that didn’t work and instead of returning has immediately decided to get it altered. Mind you, he’s now been topped by the guy who just ordered a jacket from Japan, including requesting custom alterations, then made...

    Y'2 Single riders jacket fit check.

    Haha, from the measurements I thought they'd finally switched from the old undersized Schott Japan pattern but I didn't check the sleeve measurements...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    It was supposed to come out a few years ago, but then COVID happened followed by Ken's health issues (glad he's recovering!). It'll be called Ruskin, which is the brand name he used when he was making leather for the rock stars.

    New forum member brand (Rugged West)

    Stiff Type 1 and Type 2 jackets are a really interesting breed. On the one hand, they're about as far from the denim originals as you can get (those were made of quite lightweight denim compared to what later became the norm) so the use of stiff leather is a big change, but it brings out a...

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    And unlike most of the guys here who buy shearling-lined things, you're not in SoCal or Miami or something. :D I've gotten plenty of use out of shearling trim in PA. Holy crap, I had no idea this existed. I'm guessing it'll return in the collection of 70s stuff that Holly plans to do as part...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    The seller suggested it’s more than that when I asked but I’m not clear on what. But like I said it’s not a deal breaker in any way.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Missing a zipper so that’s something to keep in mind. (Not a deal breaker, just a fix to anticipate.)

    Contact info

    He’s Maverickson here, but hasn‘t been online in a year. However it looks like he was online a few minutes ago on VLJ so it may be worth trying him there. I also see an Etsy page with no items at the moment but it might be a way to email him.

    Should I get rid of the following jackets?

    No. The opposite if anything.

    Should I get rid of the following jackets?

    Ditto. I like 3 but it's generic by comparison; 5 is neither here nor there so it should go. The rest are all really cool and not what I usually see on the Lounge.

    Casual double rider jacket - SB Oakland, or Aero King of the Road?

    You can ask if they might be able to tumble the hide for you.
