It never ceases to amaze me how people can see conspiracies in everything, if that's how they choose to look.- MillersCrossing

Where are all of you from?
I'm from the South, way down South! ;) As in South of Africa... Durban (think Florida) which is in KwaZulu-Natal. Yeah, that's right - Zululand!- MillersCrossing

Customer experiences with Bill Kelso
Quoted for truth! I wish vendors would realise that their single most important customer service tool is prompt communication with customers, especially in this age of global e-commerce.- MillersCrossing

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
I just caught a fantastic drama on TCM from the 50s (I think it was), called Clash by Night. It was directed by Fritz Lang and featured a terrific Barbara Stanwyk and Robert Ryan, plus a young Marilyn Monroe. Really great script, based on the play by Clifford Odets. TCM is pretty much my...- MillersCrossing

Jacket from Spartan w/Val Kilmer
No secret I'm a fan of movies and David Mamet makes some good ones. I particularly enjoy his 2004 release Spartan, and the main character in it - Robert Scott, played by Val Kilmer - sports a rather fetching jacket. As I am in leather jacket mode, I did some searching and found out that this is...- MillersCrossing

On the hunt for good leather!
Thanks dude, it is indeed warmer here but it can get pretty cold from time to time, depending on where you are. The other factor is I look infinitely cooler in a leather jacket than a safari jacket. :D- MillersCrossing

On the hunt for good leather!
Another update: After perusing the site again last night, with my wife as my wingman, we decided the Bootlegger had the best combo of features and savoir faire (old school cool) that make these jackets so appealing. So I am currently honing in on that one. Now just have to decide if I can swing...- MillersCrossing

The BEST Detective/Crime films of the Film Noir era?
Fury by Fritz Lang featuring Spencer Tracy is definite noir. The original The Postman Always Rings Twice is an all-time noir classic. What about The Killing by Stanley Kubrick featuring Stirling Hayden, one of the great character actors. I dunno if anyone mentioned The Big Heat with Glen Ford...- MillersCrossing

On the hunt for good leather!
Hey Dog, thanks for the advices... here are some quick snaps of me in my current go-to jacket. Its not a bad jacket (for the price I paid) but the arm holes are weird in that when I raise my arms I get serious bunching on the shoulders and the sleeves ride right up, so the materials are good...- MillersCrossing

On the hunt for good leather!
I'm afraid all I know of 'cut' is what I have seen on the site. I am going purely on the basis of their images and what I can dig up here... but from what I can see, most dudes here are pretty thin! I guess I should get my wife to take a snap of me in my current leather and that might help...- MillersCrossing

On the hunt for good leather!
Muchas gracias! I have learned a huge amount in two days already... as to choices I am now leaning towards the Half-Belt Deluxe in mid-weight HH. The problem is, every time I go back to the site, I see something else I like! :D- MillersCrossing

On the hunt for good leather!
Hey thanks, I've already been in contact with Amanda and we've chatted back and forth. I was just hoping to maybe find someone here who has the same build as me and learn from their mistakes before I take the plunge. :D- MillersCrossing

On the hunt for good leather!
Hey guys, First post here, thanks for having me. This seems like a fantastic forum with a nice mix of nationalities, I'm very glad I found it. I myself have a fascination for authentic and original designs from the 'good old days' and I love anything that is a classic design, made well and made...- MillersCrossing
