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

    I also am in the larger head/rounder face club and I am not personally a fan of the "cafe racer collar on a cross-zip" jackets. Langlitz make a similar version. Several folks here have them and love them - that's fine, just not my preferance. *Be careful* -- The FL effect is starting to...

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

    Looks good to me via the photos. Wear it at the Gym as you do your work outs for the next week or so, that will indeed help the break-in. Body heat will indeed slightly soften and make the Horsehide more pliable. I know that CXL FQHH is very sensitive to heat - or the lack thereof. Never...

    Comparison - Wesco Mr Lou to John Lofgren Engineer

    So here's the Size 12D to Size 12D compairson photos, I recieved my new pair of Wesco Mr Lou's last week, and finally had a sunny day to shoot them outside next to the Lofgren's. These were my third pair ordered through Baker's boots, which provided great customer service on all 3 pair I have...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Most any of the noted brands and products will work with these. I like using Pecards however I recently picked up a tub of Obenauf's "Heavy Duty LP" so I will try that on my Lofgren's and let you know how it goes. Both the Pecards & Obenauf's are "semi-solid" product that you have to work into...

    Aero Ridley Cordovan - 46/L

    Couple more detail photos - Note that this CXL FQHH does show finger scrapes quite readily. No smoking/pet free home, still smells brand-new!

    Comparison - Wesco Mr Lou to John Lofgren Engineer

    ^^ Cool re-sole! It'll be a very long time before mine need any work at all, if I had paid full price, I might be a bit concerned, but since I paid about 50% for these (pre-owned) no issue at all. I don't use these for work, just for nicer occassions. I am more of a recovering leather...

    Comparison - Wesco Mr Lou to John Lofgren Engineer

    Where are you getting this information? Mine do not have this at all...(that I can see, certanly have not cut them open). All leather inside & out including footbed. No "padding" to speak of. The JL's are Goodyear welt constructed, and I agree with general construction of the Wesco's...
