    A-2 and CCW - is it possible?

    Its doable with a shoulder rig I'd say but Im basing this off of my Colt Combat Commander which is a shortened 1911. BTW if you move to the states make sure you choose a state that has CCW, not all states do, there are still a few controlled by fascists.

    Why is horsehide better than steerhide?

    From personal experience I'd say horse is way tougher, especially over time. The only cowhide I've seen that is close is Langlitz heavy cowhide, that stuff could be mistaken for horse. When I say tougher Im talking about abrasion resistance.

    Yeah Wesco also has other options that are not listed anywhere, kind of like ordering from In-n-Out Burger.

    Filson "orginal hunting vest"

    Filson actually made two different types of tin hunting vests, they only make the one now. One was a regular hunting vest and the other for waterfowl, same thing with the hunting coats. I have an old one that was a dry tin but dark in color, I wish they still made it because it doesnt fit me...

    Jon Z, those Carolina's are amazing. Not sure if modern one's are of the same quality, the modern one seems to have a thinner sole. I have a new pair of Carolina Linesman boots and they are fantastic boots for the money. Excellent fit in a wide for my foot. Also that toe style you like is still...

    Is this a Filson?

    I actually have a pretty old Filson double mackinaw and the plaid is the same as a modern one. The plaid on this coat sort of reminds me of this plaid that Lost Worlds has http://www.lostworldsinc.com/Lost_Worlds_Limited_Edition_Jackets.htm if you scroll down you'll see it. Also just...

    Is this a Filson?

    Does not look like the Filson plaid pattern, the collar reminds me more of a Woolrich. Nice coat tho.

    Just get a pair of custom made Wesco's, not sure about the high arches but if Wesco cant accomodate for that you could always get inserts from Heel-the -Pain, which are made for plantar fasciatus. Also Carolina boots has fantastic arch support in their boots.

    Agreed, especially since you can have them custom made to your foot.

    Langlitz Leather Dressing

    i use it on my langlitz, I doubt they would recommend it if it wasnt good. I'd say they know a thing or two about leather. Even pecard's contains petroleum distillates.

    "motorcycle jacket"

    My best advice is to just get a Langlitz. I've had them all and in the end there is nothing better.

    Aero 50's Halfbelt

    I think the bi-swing back is a very good option, mine seems a bit restrictive without it. Also I'd recommend the brown over cordovan, the way the cordovan dye bleeds is pretty bad, basically you cant wear it in a car with leather seats. On the other hand when the horse gets broken in the...

    Which Open Road would you travel?

    If one does not have a factory cattlemans crease go with that one. If neither do, I'd go with the Royal Deluxe, I have both and prefer the Royal.
