Advice \ Opinions Needed
I have a black cafe racer horsehide motorcycle jacket that I wear with blue jeans & brown boots quite often. I have brown leather jackets that I seldom wear with black boots though, usually wear a grey or black jacket with black boots. I have many more brown boots than black & more brown...- gtdean48

Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim
Good to hear. With the 2 Biltmore OR's I got, the Campdraft FL Special fits right in. The brim width is a great alternative to the original Campdraft. I think a 2 3/4" would be spot on.... -

Aero Cow compared with Steer?
That is the jist of my question HD = due to the life style & span of a cow versus a steer, is the leather quality different? You are right about cattle = most folks say "look at those cows" not meaning they are all females....English is such a fun language...- gtdean48

Aero Cow compared with Steer?
I know the difference between a cow & a steer & never had to milk a steer to figure that out. In the leather used by Aero for jackets, I think I have seen labels of genuine steerhide & genuine cow hide. Is steer superior to cow if tanned/processed the same way? TIA- gtdean48

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
I got my first custom hat from Shorty back in mid-1990's. She has renovated & repaired an Open Road & a 25 for me over the years. I go by every year I come out for the Futurity (NRHA) in late Nov/early Dec. Last time, I did see more of a fedora style hat than just westerns.... -

Cuffed Jeans
I usually look for sales & get pre-washed at $25. Figure I'd spend at least $5 in washing, fabric softener & drying to get them wearable!- gtdean48

Cuffed Jeans
That's all I wear basically... I buy the 13MWZPW (PW = Pre-Washed)...I don't send them to the dry cleaners to have a crease starched into them like a lot of the horse-show crowd do. Spurs keep the backs from dragging & wearing like Edward mentions... I do get a kick out of those who split the...- gtdean48
