    Viberg - any other horrible experiences?

    Pretty much all my footwear have a horizontal crease in that area. It's where the upper wants to fold when your ankle bends. Some will be looser like my addicts and some will be tighter grain like my Maryam Bakers. Ive seen hundreds with creasing just like yours. If you don't want to risk it...

    Is a leather jacket & shorts a fashion faux pas?

    I suspect some of the old guys here are just trying to bury their past.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    spotted these for sale, somehow loving the two tone. probably wont buy as I never have luck with engineer boots. I just like the feeling of snugly laced boots. and without facings or other details, I feel like they're sometimes boring to look at on your feet.

    I'm concerned someone has photoshopped out the back seam, I was clearly told single piece jackets can't conform to your back

    The original pocket placement is quite nice, and it hints at abdominal muscles and adds to the V lines. Imo, this could and should have been spotted at the patterning phase, due to the relation of the lapels, upper chest pocket, D, and belt loops.
