The temptation quickly dissipates once you see the prices.
And the sizing too, at least for me. But still.

John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather.
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks.
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style. So I actually got incredibly detailed measurements from this seller, who was quite responsive to me. Super, super nice guy too. I nabbed this for $225 USD which I think is a great deal.I asked for measurements, let's see how that goes. May need to send flowers and a basket of muffins to entice the seller into providing basic information about their wares.
Nice but the price is nutty. If you're a little smaller there's another one ending tonight, sitting at two bills: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2560020477...TmXvBxeLjODUbQOk6RZcTn2A==|tkp:Bk9SR9rE7q7dYQhttps://www.ebay.com/itm/266167560825

Until I find “the right” tourist trophy I’m very happy to sport an old Hein Gericke “Paris-Dakar” model.
The value in the HG Paris Dakar model is hard to beat. Vanson TT makes one great jacket at a much higher price. But it hardly seen on sale.I’m the posting for the Brown jacket it shows the original receipt….

The $200 one on the 'bay just sold.The value in the HG Paris Dakar model is hard to beat. Vanson TT makes one great jacket at a much higher price. But it hardly seen on sale.

Nothing to do with this jacket---no knock----but for some reason I have a weird thing about jackets with Chest pockets only on the right side. I am so used to a left side chest pocket these right siders just look and feel wrong to me. Prolly because I'm a righty...... When I see these jackets they just look to me like a left handed golf club, or guitar or an English made car........Something just seems off to my eye.....
