My mum always told me to age gracefully, I'd look rather silly if I still had that hair in my mid-50's, although lots of old rockstars might not agree! lolnickn5 said:Looks at photo... looks at avatar.... looks at photo....

Last week I was in Oxford Street in London. I was wearing a grey Stetson Chatham with a brown leather jacket in the same vague shape as an A2. I was trying to look smart enough for the concert I was attending later, trying to copy an old look and not look like Indy, hence grey rather than brown fedora.
I walked past a shop with fedoras on sale. As I rarely see hat shops I went in. The hats were all cheap wool ones but the shop also had many leather jackets.
I was looking at one when a shop assisstant came up to me. He claimed that my jacket was fake leather and that he could prove it (I knew 100% that mine was real leather). He touched it with his lighter
So is it true that real leather does not burn or is that a lie?
And also, where my jacket was heated, it went black and shrank a bit. I stretched it back with my hands but how do I get rid of the black mark?
I would consider that plan of action, if I lived in London, but I think I might be pushing it if I demand a train ticket (£30-£40) as well as a new jacket. But should I return there, I might consider burning that shop assisstants clothing, but using a Zippo rather than some cheap disposable lighter. Or maybe the more respectable option you suggested.Pilgrim said:

Since this thread is being revived, I'd like to clarify that I did not really allow this person to burn my jacket, he allowed himself to do so. I realised my mistake immediately, but it's too late to do anything, although Marc Chevalier was helpful enough to point out the shop's name on page three of this thread. Since that was February it's now too late to take any legal action.JohnRawson1944 said:
Because I was too slow on account of being tired on that day due to not sleeping too well in the poor quality hostel I had stayed in the previous night. [huh] The question could be "Why did you not take action?" but I gave the answer for that on the previous five pages of this thread.Carlisle Blues said:
