    Hey guys, where can I find these thermoformable insoles? I did a quick search, but nothing. Thanks

    Waxed cotton canvas trucker jacket help

    I've got the Gustin and it's really nice. Not too heavy, and not too light. Very nice for the price. Sorry, that doesn't help as they're not making them any more. There's always the chance that it might be available on eBay eventually. My suggestion, as previously stated, find a jacket you...

    Wesco Boot Thread.

    Dav, How often do you clean them. Do you reapply oil after each cleaning? BTW, I love the look of a really well used pair of brown boots.

    Wesco Boot Thread.

    Hey all, just discovered this thread. I have a pair of custom brown Boss boots. Loved the color when they were new. Then I applied the bee oil and a coat of Obenauf's and the color darkened considerably. I was wondering if they ever fade back to the original color. What are your thoughts on...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I have two pairs of Wesco Boss boots; an off the shelf black pair, and a custom brown pair. I disliked both intensely, until they broke in. Now they're great to walk in, up to a point. 5 Miles is probably tolerable. But I won't do a 10 mile day like I'd do in my Salomon hiking boots. Both...

    Would you wear a leather jacket grown in a lab?

    This process really doesn't solve anything for 2 main reasons: 1. Animals aren't killed for their hides. The hides are merely a byproduct of the food industry to a large degree. 2.This "hide material" will still require traditional tanning techniques and chemicals.

    Differences in wear -- Aero CXL horsehide vs CXL steerhide..?

    I've had 4 Aero Highwaymen; the first 3 in FQHH, and the last in Steer. By far, the steer is more beautiful. It has developed much more graining than any of my FQHH jackets ever did. It's also super soft and drapey and just a comfy joy to wear. My FQHH jackets always felt like cardboard in...

    Beautiful Ibex Loden Wool Jacket

    I've lowered the price for the ebay sale. FL members can buy it for $80 net to me. This is a really warm great looking jacket and I'm motivated to sell. I just have too many jackets. Thanks for looking. http://www.ebay.com/itm/332101957312?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2648

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    OK, I couldn't stand it so I purchased one of the Filson's in grey/black plaid. Like I said above, I'm 5'7", 150-155lbs soaking wet with a 40" chest. I bought a small and it fits great with room for a sweater if it's really cold. My local dealer sold it to me for $340 so I got a decent deal...

    Who Makes a Nice Pea Coat?

    Don't buy new. The older Navy Pea Coats made with Kersey Wool will never pill. The fabric really is that much better than the modern stuff. A quick search shows quite a few...

    Biker gloves, what to get?

    Held are about the best gloves out there. http://www.revzilla.com/held-motorcycle-gloves?gclid=Cj0KEQiAwMLDBRDCh_r9sMvQ_88BEiQA6zuAQxL3rHeggKT_PeeqwCS9gahPQnAy8okpBF2YJBA6FhwaAu3k8P8HAQ&view_all=true#v2-facets[]=237&page=1&page_size=96&sort=featured&tab=all&implicit_facets[]=570

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    That is nice Joel. And it comes in a lot of interesting colors. I wish they listed the wool weight, though. I really need something warm and short. Now that you started it, does anybody else have other suggestions in a similar jacket? Thanks.

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    The 2 way zipper is nice but I don't get it on a shorter jacket. On a long coat, sure, but on a shorter jacket...

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    Thanks Stringmaster. That looks great on you. BTW, what's your chest measurement? I thought I liked the gray/black plaid, but the Navy also looks killer. I'm only 5' 7", 150 lbs. Does that mean that I have to buy an XS?
  22. OneEyeMan

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    Yeah, I want one too. Stringmaster, could you possibly post a pic of you wearing yours. Hard to believe they fit that large. Thanks.

    Schott's Alternative to the Aero Highwayman

    Great conversation on this topic so far. Thanks for all the opinions and comments. One question though, could somebody tell me exactly what "Nubuck" is? Thanks
