How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

[ProteinNerd]

LOOOL. That's a low blow?

I’d never say it to your face but I’m feeling pretty cocky on the other side of the planet lol!!!

Oh, you are definitely in the right place with these new acquisitions, wondering why you "need" to acquire more and more.

What is that black thing over the little cowpoke's crotch?

Frankly I thought it looked a little like an older Clark Gable in a cowboy outfit wearing a G string. Am I wrong..??

I thought it looked like a tong too - I guess either it's meant to be some sort of crotch protection for the rodeo, or w havea man who like to wear his lingerie a la Batman...

Well it's the best google produced for a search for "little plastic cowboy". But yeah that thar cowpoke is riding in a different kind of rodeo for sure.

 

[sweetfights]

Cool.

So no zippered pockets on the arms or no adjustable cuff zippers? Or both?

I am in talks with them on a similar jacket, but kind of a sidewinder meets a Cascade.

I'd ditch those little arm pockets also. The seem kind of pointless. I inquired about extra cuff options like Aero has but they recommend sticking with a zipped cuff.

An inexpensive upgrade is leather lined pockets.

Nice man, I've been curious about
this brand.

Seen a few pop up for sale,
Some with quite flashy designs

Looking forward to hearing how
it works out for ya!

Here you go @Joxi

I did a little searching on the brand and it seems the maker has a larger collection of women's gear. Primarily sold at Sturgis, daytona Bike week etc...

That's certainly interesting!

I can see it on Himelbros dot com, though. Sales section but nevertheless. . .

It seems all of Walter Leathers stuff has a bit of western flair. So yet again:

I bought this and I can't even begin to understand why (it was cheap). 7.5lb Two tone cross zip with some really odd embroidery and front yoke. I looked at it two days ago and couldn't have hated it more. All of the sudden it's in my purchased pile and due Friday. It'll hold me over while my Vanon does it's world tour.

Oh that's funny. Monitor and I were just talking about that one.

This should be someone's next jacket. Would be mine if I didn't already have an Aero CR coming.

Gold label brooks CR, currently going for $185 on eBay. Looks to be in excellent shape. A few hours left.

Here is a jacket that should be here tomorrow.

I wish the back had pinstripes but it seems like it will fit. I am only worried about the arm length right now. Not crazy about the chest pocket but I might feel differently when I try it on. In the pix it looked almost new and the price wasn't too high.
The seller said it was heavy cowhide. I'm eager to see how that feels.
We'll see when it gets here.

Sort of confused as to why I have that coming
when I love what I got back in August:

I guess the problem is the August one is very old (about as old as me I think but I'm not sure) and some of the stitching has broken. Also there is a hole in the sleeve.

This jacket was actually EXTRA crispy and dry. It took about 2 weeks and over 1 tub of Langlitz Conditioner to get it back to reasonable. This picture is after the first 3-4 days. I later washed the jacket with mild soap and water and more of that yellow came off.

Would anyone know how to date this jacket?
Maybe I should make another thread about this jacket.

I think I got the black one just to have something to wear while I make time to ride up to Langlitz to get the Grey jacket looked at.

Thanks for any help.

We were wondering if there was any relation to Walter Dyer. Guess not?

I wondered the exact same thing as they appear to be a bit similar, this particular jacket I have seen WD do, albeit I don't remember the fancy bits...

 

[Monitor]

In light of Ton's recent acquisition... Got this on the way. I guess it really is time to cowboy up.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Please post fit pics..!! Are you guys going full cowboy with the hat boots and big belt buckles? Spurs?

 

[Monitor]

Sadly, I can't get my hands on the rest of the gear... It'll just be the jacket for me.
