    Strange Shinki Horsehide smell?

    I had one Shinki - leather jacket that was a Diamond Dave one, and it had essentially no smell at all. It was secondhand. Some folks have indicated very heavy smell from CXL leathers, which I like. But having only had one Shinki jacket I am not the best source.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    ^^ so nice! But 24.5" sleeves and 20" waist? Also 22" back length apparently so quite short... Note the taper on the back of this jacket...(Granted the laces are pulled tight here)

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    ^^ not so much the weight, (probably ony a few ounces of material per boot) but more the feel of the boot, toe shape, stiffness (of course) and "coldness" of the toe itself. My work requires Metatarsil boots in our plant. That takes steel toe up a large notch and is very protective, however my...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Ok, so this is helping to clarify something I have taken notice of the past couple of years here in the Midwest US. This all began by noticing a complete "absence" of vintage leather jackets in Goodwills, Salvation Army stores, etc. Seems they were just "gone." Then I noticed quite a of few of...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    When I had a Cal a few years back, I simply pulled the laces out and kept them in a pocket so they were not lost. Excellent jacket, however I had the same issue with mine - a bit too snug around the waist, even with the laces removed. Also a fan of your pup! :)

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    I hang mine up, everyday. I use wide hangers, mostly wood or plastic but nothing else special.

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    It sounds like you are not satisfied with it. Probably worn it too much to send it back at this point, but I would move it on and start over.

    Lost Worlds "Factory"

    Yep - it does not take a large amount of space to build leather jackets, especially a 2-4 person operation. Sure looks crowded in there, and I wonder if it's up to codes for electrical and fire safety, etc? Then again it's quite similar to most cobbler shops I have visited.

    Comparison - Wesco Mr Lou to John Lofgren Engineer

    Sizing of these is indeed tricky, as most are off the rack and the JL's run a tad wider than the Wesco Mr. Lou's. Wesco will make you a pair to size - but best to call them or Baker's boots direclty and describe your sizing with them. Thier website shows the Mr Lou's only as Stock boots, just...

    Comparison - Wesco Mr Lou to John Lofgren Engineer

    So I had the "MP" toes on a pair of Wesco Boss 7500's a couple years back that I purchased as 12D's. They would not fit my feet at all correctly. I run "11.5C" on a Brannock device. My Left foot is slightly longer than my right, which is typical for a Right handed individual. What I found...
