    "The House of Hair"

    As one ages... you begin to think you've done, seen or heard just about everything... That's the about the time someone or something comes along remind you that you haven't and never will. I was minding my own business, sittin' at my computer fighting the Luftwaffe over Stalingrad when Puddin'...

    What's you all's opinion of Bestaff?

    Just curious to find out people's feelings on this brand. I've a chance to get one used but don't know anything about the brand. Not trolling, just don't know... I meant Belstaff! Obviously I can't spell either! Worf

    Snow.... are you kiddin' me?

    Traveled from NY to Pittsburgh so puddin' could defend her Doctoral thesis. The further south and west we drove... the colder it got. We were 25 miles or so from Pittsburgh when it started snowing. We were in the hills so I thought nothing of it. We were sitting in a Thai joint las night...

    Anyone know anything aobut "Zabari" leathers?

    Saw one my size on the bay and I'm just curious. Never heard of em before. Google gives me the impression they sell Chinese or Pakistani hipster wear. The text in the auction seems to have been lifted from that of a Vanson Enfield. That doesn't bode well. Worf

    Do lunatics help or hurt an online forum?

    I've been on MANY a online forum, and like many, if not all of you, I've run into my share of trolls, crumudgeons and lunatics. They're similar but slightly different. To my mind this is how they run. Trolls: Are evil, small minded people who derive pleasure from inflicting the greatest...

    All of a sudden.... she woke up!

    Since the kids no longer away wasting my money in college... he's commuting now, my disposable income has... shall we say, reached a new level. I'm in that wonderful zone now where if I see's a jacket or coat, I just buy it or order it. The ole lady's working on her doctorate, Junior (no I...

    The Army's "New" Chinook Heli...

    I know it's not WWII but I'm amazed how much the "new" one looks like the old one. But if you read the article you can see they've made a ton of changes from the inside out. I'm also curious why they added guns to the front of this bad boy. It's a gallery so you have to scroll down to see it...

    Anyone else think that "Oil Pull Horsehide" stinks????

    In aroma I mean. I got a Bootlegger off Aero's sale page in Oil Pull and every time I put that sucker on I get this aroma that smells just like a smashed stink bug. I know FQHH smells but I LOVE that aroma.... I'd pay for a cologne just like it. This stuff? SheeeYa!!!!! Worf

    Finally.... Aero "Thunderbay" Pics

    After many months I finally got someone to snap some pics of me in my Aero Thunderbay. It's a Size 50 in Black "Tumbled" FQHH. Shearling lined with rust Mouton collar. Snap cuffs and corded sleeves finish it off. This was a "sales page" purchase that I just couldn't resist. I probably could...

    My "Bah Humbug" Moment...

    I usually eat breakfast on weekends at "Carols Place" a locally run eatery near me. We've been going there for about 10 years now. Today puddin' and I walked in and I noticed a life sized "Frosty" seated near the tree. I thought "my that's one big stuffed Frosty the Snowman". A split second...

    Wait one minute! Could THIS be the jacket the Aero Thunderbay is modeled on?

    1. Two piece back..... Check! 2. Snap cuffs............ Check! 3. Mouton Collar....... Check! 4. Bottom Belt.......... Check! 5. One zip and 2 hand...... Check! The ONLY difference is the lack of a shearling lining which this COULD have had considering it's fitted with a lining zipper on...

    Infecticating friends one at a time.

    One of my co-workers has watched my jacket collection grow and vary over the last 2 plus years. He told me that his Grandmother had given him is grandfathers old Woolrich hunting jacket when he was in college. She wrote his name on the tag and the school he was attending, even though he was a...

    Anyone here own anything from Remy Leathers?

    Saw something of theirs on the bay. Didn't bite though as I've too many coats and jackets already... But I am curious about this brand particularly in that I've never heard of them before now. Worf

    Washing shearling lined coat...

    As some of you may know, I've a Pike Bros B-10 that I recently purchased. I love the jacket. It fits well, sleeves a tad longish but no biggie dad. My only problem with it is the overly thick shearling lining in the arms and body. Thank goodness they gusseted the arms or I'd never be able to...

    Buyer's Remorse or "What do we do with our failures?"

    If you stay in this game/hobby/obsession long enough you wind up there. You plan, dream, obsess over something. You save your pennies, beg, borrow and steal to get this (insert obsession here) that you must have. Finally the day comes and you whip out that card and pull the trigger. Then...

    "Get On Up!"

    I was initially reluctant to see this film because my relationship to James Brown was/is so long and intricate. We both lived in Jamaica, Queens at the same time. I bought his records, saw his shows... danced to his music all my life. The first song I ever learned (sans sheet music) was one...

    FINALLY!!!!! A Pair of Boots that Fit "Right" out of the box!!!!

    Folks, in case you don't know or might have forgotten, I've BIG, TALL hard to fit feets. I'm a size 12 EEE with an extremely high arch. I'm more comfortable wearing the boxes than the shoes. Oh I can find generic, Chinese rubber bottomed walking shoes to wear but nice stylish boots and shoes...

    Sizing of Pike Brothers Jackets....

    I finally pulled the trigger on a Pike Bros. B-10. I emailed em and asked them, based upon my measurements, what size I should git... they said XL. I personally haven't worn an XL in a coon's age but they said so... So I'm on here asking because I'm a bit nervous, anyone out there got a B-10...
