Thanks for the info, I really do like the style of them but if they do not offer decent protection I will continue to search for a boot that is stylish and protective.
Thx Carrie,
I spent some time on this thread and really really like the brown steerhide j106 in Post #1737 on pg 174. That jacket looks amazing... What is the price of it? What is the thickness of that leather?? How does it do in the rain? and do you have any pics of someone wearing that...
For whatever reason it seems that a lot of the leather websites are poor, ie vanson, LW, JL. I don't mind schott's updated website but I did prefer the old one. There are some new pics of their jackets so that's nice but it's hard to take the models they used seriously...
The jacket looks great!! I think it would look even better if you tighten up the body and if even consider the upper arm areas as well. Or just get bigger arms by banging out lots of curls for the gurls!!!!
I really like the added length you had done. I'm working on a jacket with Alan and...
Nick, I got a sample and I really like it and love the colour. I can't compare it to horsehide cause I've never seen or touched it but really who cares... I know what I like and me really likes the cxl overdye!!!
I'm sticking with JL. I'll shelf the 641hh till next year.
I received a sample of the cxl overdye and it's great. Very rich dark brown, 4.25 ounce, soft and supple. It's funny, I find myself carrying the sample around in my pocket and often scrunching it my hand and also smelling it. I may...
Mendelboaz!!!!! I hate this post!!! I've been working with Alan from JL on a jacket made in the 4.25 cxl overdye. Your post makes me want to scrap it and get the 641HH!!! Just when I thought I had it all figured out you go and do this..
I used to buy fashionable brand jackets so in comparison to those the soy wax cruiser quality and construction is far superior. The jacket doesn't feel cheap at all to me although I haven't handled their heavier weight cloth. I did notice the feel and stiffness of the jacket changes depending...
Yes good point about the arms being short. I only wear it for style so it doesn't bother me but you are on to something. They should make the Seattle fit with longer arms.
I couldn't possible get the soy wax cruiser dirty, its way too pretty as is...
Too bad you couldn't find a soy wax short cruiser. I have one and Its a great light weight jacket, I really like the modern slim fit and the light tan colour with the red plaid lining. I see it as a fashion piece, i think it would get way too dirty if using it for work. I don't regret paying...
