    New Thedi Belts Review

    I can't tell you how excited I am to get these new belts. They are still in transit, but Thedi provided these photos just before shipping. I fell in love with Thedi Leathers a few months ago after reading about them on here. As a lover of hand-crafted goods, leather goods, and original...

    What happened to the thread I was reading????

    I was reading a new thread where the OP posted a review of a new "AERO Sheene", complete with photos, and a rather lengthy (albeit negative) review. I was about to give some advice and share my POSITIVE experience (since I just received a very similar jacket from Thurston Bros.), but the thread...

    AERO Sheene...another Thurston Bros. Success Story!!!

    Hello fellow loungers, A couple of months ago (Feb 2nd, 2015) I ordered an AERO Sheene custom jacket from Thurston Bros. in Seattle, WA. It came in the mail today (UPS). As I opened the exceedingly heavy box I began to smell the fresh, unadulterated leather exuding from the package. When I...

    FOR SALE: Thedi Wallet Cowhide 100% Vegetable-Tanned $275

    After a month of waiting, it will be here Friday. The more I have thought about it, the more I have realized it doesn't fit into my lifestyle. I don't have a motorcycle and my typical dress doesn't support the look. I truly was just in awe over the craftsmanship so I ordered it. I couldn't stop...

    Jacket for a woman

    With my new Aero jacket ordered (and my incessant thinking about its arrival) my wife has peaked her interest toward her first leather jacket. She is 5'4" tall, with an athletic and trim body. She is in her mid thirties. She seems to like the moto-style jackets best and she like the cognac...

    I need an intervention...leather sickness

    I just ordered a Thedi wallet. No, I don't need it. No, it doesn't go with my style. Yes, I ordered it anyway. It just looked so luscious and it's made in Greece. How could I resist, right? Well, more than anything I just wanted to see it, in person. It should be here in a couple of...

    Vegetable Tanned Natural Leather & Olive Oil..match made in heaven

    So recently I purchased a vegetable tanned Corter belt in a natural finish. When it arrived and I tried it on, it was just too "white" for me. I began to research how to darken leather and I ran across an old method where olive oil was used. Boy am I happy I did. Here is the result. It was...

    What are your thoughts on US WINGS Jackets?

    Several years ago, 2006 to be specific, I bought a leather A-2 from http://www.uswings.com It seemed like a very nice leather jacket and the customer service was exceptional. I even got a free t-shirt and coffee mug thrown in for purchasing the jacket. This was long before I'd ever heard of...

    Summer style...how do you keep it when the heat kicks up?

    I have been trolling TFL for a couple of years. I just realized I only do it during the cooler months. I'm always thinking of all things leather...new boots, leather jackets, belts, wallets, etc. I've just about got the look nailed down. Some dark denim, a nice watch, some classic, but...

    Aero Sonoma Cafe Racer Fit Questions...

    On the Aero Sonoma Cafe Racer FQHH...Is it normal for the fit to look "spot on" from the outside, but as you are wearing it...it feels a bit tight and restrictive in the armpit area? I mean, it is brand new FQHH after all (stiff). I have read about "High Armholes", which gives the classic...
