Alexander Leathers
I couldn't resist the price reduction, so I pulled the trigger on the jerky horsehide Dirt Rider. It arrived while I was out riding my scooter. Guess I'll try it out tomorrow. I like the hide & it feels a stout as my vintage Fidelity cafe racer. Will try to get some photos up tomorrow as well...- gtdean48

STETSON 7x CLEAR BEAVER QUALITY
I've searched & only came up with undyed beaver fur for "Clear Beaver", never found anything stating it was exclusively beaver belly fur....why I thought it had that tannish color because it had fur from other parts in addition to belly. If anybody has documented evidence of the belly fur claim... -

Why is it ok to wear Aero FQHH in the rain?
Leather loses oils when water evaporates & the pores start to close up but this all depends on how the leather is treated & finished. Leather shrinks some when these pores start to close up. Replacing these lost oils via a leather condition gets the pores to open back up. All this is very true...- gtdean48

Affordable used brands to look for?
I got a US Wings Indy in Goat used off ebay that is a very nice jacket for the price. If I was looking for a knock-around A2, that Goatskin A-2 2000 at $195 looks interesting to me...I'm not about authenticity at all....- gtdean48

WTB: Borsalino 7.5
Your statement below, "I like the 1 inch width and contrast with the hat color", had me thinking you were not looking for thin ribbons. OR/Strat/Alessandria ribbons are about 3/8"(4 ligne). 1" is more mid-ribbon size....IMHO- gtdean48

As far as breaking in, I wear as much as possible & do exaggerated arm movements. Roll the jacket up, sit on it, unroll, roll another way, sit on it, repeat.- gtdean48
