    Leather Shrinkage

    I've shrunk leather jackets by wetting them and drying them in the sun. But an unintended consequence in one instance is that the acetate lining in one of them did not shrink at all. The leather now fits nicely, but the lining sticks out below the cuffs and I have to keep tucking it in. It also...

    Remember common ¢ents?

    Swipe. Split. What are you Amish? :) (I don't even carry cash. And change all goes into a hopper to be converted to real money - in the bank, where I'll access it FAST with a Swipe Split. And then track every penny that I've spent easily, quickly, and wherever I happen to be standing.)

    What leather conditioner do you use?

    That's a great find. There's a wonderful, weathered old easy chair with cracked leather in Bogart's apartment in The Maltese Falcon. You can't buy that kind of character new. Pecard's.

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Well. No. We've never been that. We started as a bunch of like-minded men and women who liked to wear hats and wanted to learn more about mid-20th century style and culture beyond the Indiana Jones gear. That's all. I don't think there was any ideology behind it beyond the Golden Rule. We mostly...

    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Yes it is, but it's still politics. It's best to not put a toe in that water at all.
