    SCHOTT or STERLINGERWEAR PEA COATS

    Neither. Buy Vintage. They're higher quality than both brands. I'm sure Pea Coat will chime in soon. I listened to him and bought a vintage one from the 60's for about $50. It's the highest quality coat I own. Lenny

    Vanson Enfield

    Yeah, I agree Seb. On the Insurrection page, they advise to size down for the Enfield as it runs one size large. That was my finding too, which is why I bought a 38 to replace this one. Lenny

    OK, I'll do that tonight, good suggestion Seb. You can also find the measurements here. http://www.vansonleathers.com/main_page/measure/ENF.htm Lenny

    Vanson Enfield

    Size 40, made in the USA. It's about 2 years old. I did all the hard work and broke it in nicely for you. Great grain showing everywhere, soft and supple (as soft and supple as a substantial piece of leather like this can be) Other than some very minor scuffs here and there, it's perfect. $510...

    Highwayman Owners...what's the consenus on the Storm Cuffs

    If you wear a watch of any normal size, you won't want them. I cut mine off. Lenny

    Please Explain High End Selvedge Jeans to Me

    Again, I merely started the thread so I could learn about selvedge denim. It's kind of offensive that more than one of you have already accused me of trolling in a round about way. And I haven't lost interest, just haven't been posting due to comments like the above. I honestly didn't understand...

    Please Explain High End Selvedge Jeans to Me

    My original intention of the post was to learn what makes selvedge denim jeans better than the garden variety denim jeans, not to troll. So far, nothing in this thread leads me to believe that selvedge denim is better than just plain old denim or that heavy is better than thin. For me, fit is...

    Please Explain High End Selvedge Jeans to Me

    Finally, the good Dr says what I've been thinking all along. I just didn't want to say it for fear of getting my head bit off! At best, selvedge keeps the ends of the fabric from fraying. But who cares any way, the edges never show. The real conversation is heavy wt vs light fabric wt denim...

    Please Explain High End Selvedge Jeans to Me

    Guys, I'm not saying there's no difference. I just want to know what the differences are. I bought an Aero FQHH jacket instead of mall garbage so I do appreciate quality and the greater cost associated with it. How much should I expect to pay for entry level good quality selvedge jeans? Lenny

    Please Explain High End Selvedge Jeans to Me

    I'd be interested in trying a pair of selvedge jeans just to see what they're about first hand. Is it possible to get a quality pair for under $50? Where? Lenny

    Please Explain High End Selvedge Jeans to Me

    I've basically worn Levis 505's or Lee straight cut jeans my whole life. I don't think I've ever spent more than $35 for a pair. They fit great, look great, and last for years. I just don't get spending hundreds of dollars for a pair of jeans. And I still don't get what makes "selvedge" denim...

    What's "close trim"? Any pix? Lenny

    My boss decided it was time to buy a leather jacket

    Well, you've all already said what I would've said anyway. The thing I just can't get over is the price of that Burburry jacket. There must be a lot of people with more money than common sense. Sheesh! Lenny

    Aero FQHH vs Vintage FQHH

    I hear ya Fanch. And I do agree with you. It's pretty darn near perfect fit wise. I could just use another inch in the length and arms though. I'd also love a smooth lining in the sleeves to make it easier to put on and off. Sorry, I had a moment of insanity. I'm gonna take your advice and keep...
