    Lost Worlds J23 Version 2.0

    Great jacket and a perfect fit! You'll see, once winter is there the collar will make sens, i find they are much better than a scarf.

    Is Simmons Bilt still open?

    I heard he doesn't even bother taking these pics in front of different oceans! Least he could do is give us a bit of variety...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I have both and like both, i agree with blackadder that "A Century of Leather Design" is probably the best one of the two.

    The combo of sleeve zipper and double button is really cool, i like that a lot!

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

    Well you leave us no choice then, you are now in charge of the "get Constatine on TFL project", if by the end of the week you haven't succeded you will be dismissed and will have to leave TFL in shame never to return. Thank you for your sacrifice, TFL appreciates it.

    I say we start picketing in front of Vansons, someone start making signs! We need a list of all TFL users living in Boston...

    FS: Vanson x Left Field Commando M $500

    I am 6'2" an i find it 1" too long even for me. IMO it was specced that way to work with low rise jeans+ untucked T shirts. I think it went something like this: "if i wear this jacket without tucking my T shirt it looks like i am wearing a dress" "why don't you tuck your t shirt?" "that's not...

    Is Simmons Bilt still open?

    If waiting a couple months for an answer to an email during a global pandemic is all it takes to kill your enthusiasm maybe you didn't really want it in the first place...

    FS: Vanson x Left Field Commando M $500

    I probably don't "need" this jacket with every different liner variation as well, but you should know that it did cross my mind!

    "Lee Trevor" I Have Little Problem...

    Looks to me like the plating was thin and rusted through. There is nothing you can do to restore rusted out chrome, at best you can stick a rust neutralizer to remove the red and then protect what remains with a light coat of oil.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Great book, smaller photos than the Rin Tanaka books, and no real information, but a lot of cool jackets in there. It's a bit like a book version of the Bill Kelso archives.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Mine is a 43XL, XL meaning extra length, i think it's a stock 43 with 1" extra in the arms. You can see fit pics there, 3 post of the page ( i am 6'2, 185lb) The chest measurement might look small, but with the underarm gussets an the action back you still get gret forward reach...

    Vanson x Left Field Commando

    I'm the same, i have been collecting things for as long as i can remember. Rocks, coins, stamps, cards, fishing lures, tools, bass guitars, leather jackets, there was always something, at every points of my life i had a collection going on. When i first joined TFL i started with the idea that i...

    Vanson x Left Field Commando

    You can, you just have to get the leather from Horween and have them ship it to Vanson. It is going to end up costing close to 2k, but if it is your dream/"retirement from TFL" jacket it might be worth it in the long run. Currently the only CXL Vanson has in stock is the leftover from the Left...

    Vanson x Left Field Commando

    It's would have been too small for you unfortunately... Thanks a lot for proxying this beast to me! If you see a Large one just hit BIN, you won't regret it.

    IMO these two shots show the difference in stitching the best, regular commando on top:

    Vanson x Left Field Commando

    What's better than one Commando? A pair of Commandos! This jacket came up for a great price not long ago and i just had to have it. I'm a sucker for uncommon/rare Vansons and this is a pretty uncommon one, it is basically the same jacket as the one posted above but being the Left Field 20th...
