The Time Has Finally Come
^^ Sad to hear this. I too had wondered what ever happened to this journey. Good they made it out before that hurricane hit, and too bad I had not followed them more closely. I have relatives in NC who probably could have helped out. Given the vintage of the truck, (apx 1999 Chevy) that had...- AeroFan_07

Who has an Aero Dustbowl??
That Dustbowl appears to be made of very thick Horsehide, and the bulges you see seem to nearly line up with the expansion pleats in the back of the jacket. I agree with others, it's a tremendous fit on you aside from this. Not exactly sure how those would occur on this or a different pattern...- AeroFan_07

Motorcyclists question: Horsehide boots?
I have Horsehide White's Lace-ups here with leather lining. I rode for several years, and I think with the OP is concerned with are the more naturally-occurring scrapes & scuffs that happen as you shift, brake, and generally contact a bike getting on and off and in operation. Mine are Horween...- AeroFan_07

Taubers straight-zip restoration jacket
^^ It was not my first choice of color, I just wanted something different than black. She had black, dark brown and the wine-red. I had hoped for a brighter red, but decided this would be fine. Always like a color inside that makes the black & brass pop a little.- AeroFan_07

Taubers straight-zip restoration jacket
^^ Neat to hear about the orange original pocket linings. I suspected that was done later. They are all intact, and after the Woolite washings, they are clean and good. Should have mentioned that I let Dena do a full clean & Condition, she actually went over the jacket several times with a...- AeroFan_07

Taubers straight-zip restoration jacket
Here is the result after having the jacket in with Dena: This jacket has really changed from it's received state. The complete lining is new, there is no "quilted poly-fill" insulation anymore, the corduroy around the neck area is new, and she was able to clean and save the original...- AeroFan_07

Taubers straight-zip restoration jacket
Hello Lounge friends here is the chronicle of a 60+ year old Horse Hide police jacket from a flea-market in California to it's current location and condition. I did not know much about the Taubers brand prior to purchasing this one. Part of the reason for the purchase was to expand knowledge...- AeroFan_07

Footwear to go with our jackets
My apologies here, I know this is not for boots, but I read this quote and have to post this: Just do an image search on Google for a 1990 BMW 7-series, and then a 2020 BMW 7-series. No comparison. The grill has gone bonkers, looks like it belongs on a pickup truck. Sad, we consider that...- AeroFan_07

Monitor, I have the same thoughts as everyone else. Keep it! You'll regret if you sell (I still do regret selling my J23, but I regret more not just getting the lining right the first time and then never having the need to sell it). And BTW - congratulations on the weight loss. That's not...- AeroFan_07
