He's definitely arguing just to argue.
The guy's just mad that he got called out for trying to flip a jacket at 2X the price he purchased it for outside of TFL. That chat he posted just proves he's not a good seller and folded, of course he would have sold at his 2X asking price if a buyer...
By your own admission you flipped a jacket you acquired from a member here for profit. That means you belong on the bad actor list.
I have purchased 2 jackets in my time here and have sold neither nor do I intend to sell them. This means I don't belong on the list.
1. The buyer was deceptive and used the seller's good faith to withdraw information that he would later use for financial gain at 5-6X the original price that again was given in good faith and a false premise (bullshit family story). This does not align with the spirit of this community and is...
Maryam has a similar looking version of their own shrunken horsehides as Shinki. This is a picture of shrunken horsebutt I got for Benzein/Briselblack, probably too tough for jackets.
looks great on you what a nice jacket - I think I was eyeing the same one but decided I need to slow down and learn more about vintage before I go in on one
Rookie question here that doesn't warrant it's own thread.
What is this Schott Perfecto model number? I think it's mid/late 70's based on the tag, the pocket tag only shows the size and not the model.
Just wanted to chime in here since I'm a new member and have purchased 2 jackets in the short time I've been here (so far, need to slow down).
"Flipping" jackets has never even occurred to me lol. Every hobby I've been deeply immersed in - knives, watches, boots, selvedge denim, now leather...
I'm going to Japan in end of the year in November and have the same plan as you - going to TRMC, Freewheelers, Y2, etc to hopefully get a jacket.
Are there any other places in Japan anyone can recommend for leather jackets? My first love is selvedge denim so of course I have to visit Osaka...
Thanks for the assurance guys - I think it looks good too but it does feel like there's slightly too much volume in the chest especially when I'm sitting down with it fully zipped up (maybe it needs to relax a bit and break in).
I don't want a skin tight t-shirt fit but I would like a more...
Hi everyone - I purchased this Two Lane Blacktop from a member here and after wearing for about a week I'm not sure if it's slightly too roomy on me. Please give me some feedback so I know what measurements I should aim for in my next jacket (sorry for the crappy pics).
I am wearing just a...
Okay this makes sense - you're totally right about the angle of my arms going into the hand warmer pockets, but that angle causes the zipper teeth to bite into my hands even harder and it's not like I'm going to just stop using my jacket pockets lol.
I definitely see your point about the belt...
I just picked up this Simmons Bilt and have 2 newbie questions:
1) If I have a tailor remove the hand pocket zippers will that make the jacket look imbalanced or have issues later? I don't like the teeth scraping my hands
2) same question for the belt loops. If I remove them, will it make the...
If anyone is interested in the Moto(r) dress engineers in horsebutt they just got released again. Releases are limited so not sure when the next one is when this sells out.
Re: sizing I took it at a whole size down from brannock so for my 10D/E feet I took a 9 which works for me. If you have a...
I'm a newbie but I have experience with that same jacket - ordered it from schott but found it to be too long at 26". Otherwise it's breathtaking and so beautiful, the character of the leather is amazing in person. Jacket was super stiff and heavy, as expected of any high quality leather garment.
