Re: Wested's HERO jacket...
How exactly do you do the shower treatment? Is there a thread dedicated to it? I just hang the jacket on a durable coat hanger, zip up the jacket, and give the jacket a cold shower for 3-5 minutes. Then shake off the excess water, throw on the jacket and go about your business. This will help the j...

Re: Possible Aldens spotted in Children of the Corn
I was watching the 1984 movie tonight and I'm pretty sure that actor R. G. Armstrong is wearing Aldens. I tried to find some screenshots buy the only thing I could find is the movie on You Tube. Go to 27:55 and watch for a few minutes and see what you think. :TOH: https://youtu.be/8p-lpFb7RWc"...

I totally agree with Holt on this one. I bought a Legacy a few weeks ago, when I got it I was a little surprised at the colour, it looked a lot like the slightly grey milk chocolate authentic brown from about 10 years ago. Contacted Mick to make sure it was the right "legacy" lamb leather...

The original color of the boots was not that dark. Everything in that picture looks saturated, and too dark. If you want to know the real color of the boots, just look at 70's Aldens.
