    Undyed Cossack options

    That looks terrific and the fit is perfect, but to my eyes it looks as though it's dyed. It's undeniably brown, isn't it? Either way, beautiful jacket.

    Goldtop England

    Ha. I've just realised I most likely won't be going along to this as I'm at the Malle Mike festival next weekend so won't get the opportunity. Still, the Malle should be great fun and I'm looking forward to it. I've never been before.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    I'm curious, presumably you're wearing these with your jeans not tucked in? Is there any noticeable difference between the darkening on the leather of the foot compared to the shaft of the boot where they're hidden? It doesn't look from your photo like there's any difference, but I suppose I...

    Goldtop England

    Goldtop have the 3rd birthday of their bricks and mortar store on 21st July. I might ride over on my little Trumpet. https://www.instagram.com/p/C9HogV7oLX-/?igsh=MXM5MnJ5dG1nc216bA==

    Your favorite outerwear Instagram account(s)

    I'd actually quite like to know people's Instagram names, as there's plenty of FL members whose accounts I would follow on Instagram. I don't post any pictures on my Instagram, I just have it so I can follow people.

    Denim Jackets - New or Vintage

    Cool. I love those white jeans. I wear white jeans in summer too, but they're probably more acceptable in Florida than they are here in England.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Deceptive wording on their website if they're manufacturing elsewhere. "We are committed to expanding our British manufacturing and working with some of the finest material suppliers in the UK and around the world. LANX's commitment to British manufacturing extends beyond footwear; with socks...

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Has anyone heard of Lanx Shoes? https://lanxshoes.com/ Shoes and boots made in Britain, with some lovely traditional designs and a not-too-painful price point. I'd be interested to hear if they're as good as they look.

    M-65 Field Jacket

    I've got a Helikon M65. It's great, it's my favourite jacket! Oh. Mine's a black one

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Me too. I have a gold mirror bubble shield on my white Biltwell Gringo. Makes me look like an astronaut! Edit to add photo.

    To alter or sell?

    I think you've got too much room there too, tbh. The whole jacket looks too big on you in my view - the body is long, and also too wide all the way down. There's excess leather bagging out in front of the shoulders and the sleeves look quite loose. I'd try again for a better fit with a...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I almost bought a Ninja ZX4RR just a couple of weeks ago. Bit of a contrast to my Bonneville.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thank you. My bike is a Bonneville, so I feel like I can get away with a couple of the t-shirts.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Because of the unique way the British Summer operates, today I'm back in my old Barbour International.

    Green Leather Jackets

    The first time I went to the shop I took a photo wearing the 617. Let me root about and see if I can find it... Edit: ah, my mistake. It was their cross zip Lancer jacket. Apologies, terrible photo. But it shows the decent cropped length.

    Green Leather Jackets

    Don't know. I did have a long chat with the current owner last time I was in the shop. He was holding forth on the process of putting things through CE assessment to get the AAA. But I didn't discover how the new version of the company came about. He showed me his own personal jacket, which was...

    Green Leather Jackets

    Interesting you mention that, as I found them small too. I would expect to fit comfortably in a 40, but when I tried their 1958 model I needed a 42. And it was perfect - the best-fitting jacket I've ever put on.

    Green Leather Jackets

    I'd concur with this. I've visited the store twice in person and tested the patience of the staff (and once the owner) by exhaustively trying on pretty much everything. I thought the leather and the construction of the jackets was excellent. Also AAA rated as PPE, so pretty comprehensively...

    newtojackets is no longer new to jackets: sharing my leather jacket collection

    Apologies to @newtojackets for an aside, but iirc you ride @red devil . What do you wear for riding? Any of your esoteric jackets, or something more pragmatic?

    Is mymilitarysurplus.com a Scam?

    I just tried to look at it and I got sent straight to a Chinese porn site, from inputting mymilitarysurplus.com in my browser address bar. Bit embarrassing.
