    Who Makes A Good Quality Denim Jacket?

    the lee 101j fits different than the Levi (say type 3) The lee's cuffs are much slimmer than the levi. The shoulders are not as square as the levis and the waist is slimmer too. so depending on your body type, if you're more square, than the Levi's will fit better. If you're more taper...

    Which decade is the worst in terms of style?

    I'd have to say the 1990's was the worst in style. say what you want of the 70's, but it didn't lack in terms of style.

    GREAT AERO half belt thread.

    Yes it is different than their standard FQHH. The color is different and of course it's a bit lighter. The hide is not as "oily" as there standard hide. If you ask what they have laying around in the back they might be able to help you. Sometimes they have bits left over that's not enough...

    1930s Cavalry- Mechanized and Horse

    I'm not sure of his unit. I know he was 6 foot 200 pounds and he said any man that was that big was sent to the calvary. I know he walked supplies over the hump and fought the Japanese. I think he used mostly mules. I remember he said they cut the mules tongues out so they wouldn't make any...

    GREAT AERO half belt thread.

    I agree it could be a tad smaller, but HD is showing a highwayman not a half belt... unless I missed a pic... Plus this is not aero's 30's halfbelt, but their standard one.

    what do you want to spend? Why not just wait a little longer and save up for the boots you really want instead of settling for pair that's kinda-close...
