    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Benzein makes good looking engineers too at around 400-550 depending on which leather to use

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    The standard 11" boot looks cool but not everyone can pull it off. Having a shorter shaft might also make the look better proportioned especially for short guys like me

    Five Star Leather vs Johnson Leather for Custom Jackets

    Got it as I remember that thread from before. Is it the natural or brown cxl? That's very smart to do.

    Five Star Leather vs Johnson Leather for Custom Jackets

    Wow, this is something that is really cool. I'm sure a lot of us here will be very interested with how 5* will do with a better hide. Maybe Shawn (wink wink) reads this thread too and I'm sure they will want to knock this project out of the park to help keep up the momentum they built. Can't...

    Five Star Leather vs Johnson Leather for Custom Jackets

    Also very interested if this is something 5* is willing to accommodate us for. Can you pls share that experiment? @Imuricecreamman did a pretty good dye job with his Cossack Wow, no wonder @ton312 didnt like his JL so much. I'm so lucky I don't have that with my goatskin or cxl jacket That...

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

    JL custom m200

    According to Greg (Field Leathers), you reduce about 0.25" off from actual measurement. Damon from JL recommended about 3/8" so I requested that little bit of extra to get desired length/width when I ordered my cxl. When I ordered the German HH I just used the same measurement as the cxl but...

    JL custom m200

    Thank you, it's my best fitting jacket when it come to the chest/shoulder. I'll have the waist/hem tapered too to get a slimmer fit ala @navetsea style. Yes, if I have them shorten the jacket I'll keep that puller level with bottom hem. That's going to be a lot of surgery though, will that...

    Sample of the seal(dark brown) Horween Vermont horsehide. Similar to aeros Vicenza leather. That hide looks nice up close. JL has been winning, that updated website looks good too.
