    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    Thor, thx for the info and I do like the rating scale from people that have owned several jackets. ONe thing that I would like in my next jacket is for it to be fitted. My concern with the Lost World Easy Rider is that the measurement around the waist/midsection is 42" on the 42r jacket. I...

    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    Thx for the info 1Thog, it took a while but it's nice to hear someone chime in regarding Lost Worlds. I'm glad to hear that the quality of their jackets are really really good. It sounds like both LW and schott are excellent quality wise. My 2 knocks against the LW easy rider are the price and...

    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    Monitor, I tried clicking on the link from your post but to continue any further I needed a password. If i got the Schott HH, i don't think id be man enough to rub alcohol on it to remove the shine. I like your idea of it wearing off on its own. And yes I am leery about ordering a size up. I...

    Jimmer, don't be bringing in other fighters to this battle ;-). When you say schott's leather is inferior, what specifically do you mean? Thx

    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    So does this basically remove some of the finish? I know little about leather so i apologize in advance if my questions are stupid. Does this change some of the characteristics of the leather, water?? Does it dry the leather out? Will the leather last as long?? Have you seen someone do it...

    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    Interesting point, I didn't know that the 641 will patina and the LW easy rider won't. One thing I like about the easy rider is the 4 ounce leather.

    Hello again everyone!! really thought I had my next jacket figured out. It was going to be the Schott 641 Horsehide but for some reason I keep eyeing down the Lost Worlds Easy Rider in Horsehide. Has anyone out there handled both and if so, can you contribute some ideas to help with this...

    Thx Monitor. I saw that one could add fur to the collar of the CHP or Colorado. I really liked the look of the chopper so I will stick with that.

    Are there advantages to the Brando collar and the lace sides? That is if they are advantages or just a matter of preference.
