    FS: Vanson B-3 Shearling sz 42

    How much cheaper is cheaper? Could you also please provide bottom hem measurement, measured flat from side to side with the jacket zipped up and the side straps undone. Thanks

    My early D pocket

    That looks great, i love these early D pockets, more of an Aviator than a MC look going on. Could you post more pics? Would love to see grain close ups. What is the brand?

    "GRAIL" Jackets

    Has anyone been in touch with Thedi recently? I sent an email a month ago and still no answer... I would assume Corona might slow things down a bit, or are they completely shut down and not even answering emails?

    Aero Sheene Fit

    I'm not saying it's not going to crease, just that it isn't going to shorten. I have jackets with 27" sleeves that fit too long when the jacket was new, after years of wear the sleeves are still 27" and are still to long. Yes they have creased more than my 26" sleeves, and they get these weird...

    Face Masks And other DIY projects

    So you are blaming the future end of the world on gay men, nice! Your posts read very weirdly... What about straight bars and brothels? Are they Ok or will they also cause the end of the world?

    Aero Sheene Fit

    In my experience this is a myth... I have broken in around 20 leather jackets and not a single on has lost a measurable amount of sleeve length. IMO that Sheen is a good 2" too long in the sleeves and probably a little bit too long in the back, but that's hard to tell with sweatpants on.

    Recommendation on Leather Jacket (Diamond Dave vs Aero)

    I own two DD jackets, would never recommend anyone spend money on them... IMO they are pretty poorly made, there is no craftsmanship or attention to detail. The patterns are pretty bad and uncomfortable. I would definitely rate Aero above DD construction wise, fit wise i am not a fan of either...

    Butt probing, it's all about butt probing for these little alien bastards... They are obsessed with butts!

    My leather jacket database.

    I have to say that is my technique as well... I wear the exact same thing every single day, IH 634 jeans, American Apparel T-shirt and Uniqloo V neck jumper, that's it, only variation is different colours of T-shirt and jumpers... I don't have or believe in different "outfits", the only way i...

    Half Belt History

    I think the back belt was just kept cause it looks "right". It follows the body's natural proportions. Compare these two, the side cinches are not even aligned with the belt, still IMO the belted one looks much better.

    Half Belt History

    I am not sure how the half belt has anything to do with panel sizes. Leather saving with panel size was more to do with back designs like the sunburst and things like that. To me the half belt itself is just an evolution of a belted coat. Early on a lot of coats had full belts, then came on...

    My leather jacket database.

    I wouldn't say level of happiness is directly linked to jacket numbers. If anything the fact that i am struggling to store all that is really making me want to sell off some and making me question my madness...

    Faded / patinated (Leather) Jackets through use...

    This thread should be renamed "Terry's school of fades".

    do you dare to commit to wear a single jacket for a month through all your waking hours?

    Nothing special happening with the arms, all i do is wear it a lot, sometimes a bit of water... No bondage techniques or dark magic is used.

    My leather jacket database.

    My top three right now are the Leathertogs, the Columbia and the Storm Rider... The 618 comes with a fleece collar, it also has fleece in the wrists Cal style.

    My leather jacket database.

    Thank you Robbie, I have to say the LW Leathertogs is also my favourite. LW is the peak of the mountain for me, i don't think there is anywhere else for me to go after that... The Imperial was the one Terry sold in the classifieds a while back. Unfortunately it was too large for me and i sold it...
