    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    I just mistyped the URL. being that I'm from Germany I wrote meermin.de instead of meermin.es turns out those honorable gentleman at shoepassion.de own that URL and use it to redirect to their page.

    Luxire and Styleforum Leather jackets - Official thread

    They got it right in one go. Within 3 weeks they send me the blue cotton sample jacket with which they send leather swatches to choose from, another 4 weeks later the leather jacket arrived. On my next order, I might shorten the torso and slim down the armholes slightly, but that's about it.

    It's soft pliable leather, though it has a nice weight to it. It's definitely more a spring and autumn than a summer jacket. Though the leather could work as a light summer jacket if you went without a lining.

    Sorry that it took so long for me to post fit pictures. We literally had either 90+°F or torrential rain in Germany which prevented me from wearing this amazing suede piece. Pictured are also the cool white linen cotton and the Luxire custom selvedge jeans. I love this jacket and the...

    This is mine and it's wonderful. Sadly the current temperatures in Germany don't permit me to wear it yet (96°F+). The jacket fits perfectly and the leather is supple and soft. Every detail specified was executed exactly how I envisioned. The colour is wonderful and the whole process of having...

    That's exactly what I also specified ;) > reduce the cuffs by 1.5cm > add a two way zipper > widen the chest pockets > add a snap button at the collar > remove a tiny bit at the yoke underneath the collar band > lower the waist pockets I can't wait to get my hands on it.

    I'm having a brown suede leather jacket in a cafe racer style made and Luxire was so kind to make up the trial jacket from a blue cotton of a similar weight as the suede leather. Could not be happier so far. This trial jacket is well on it's way to being part of my regular rotation. Of...

    Maybe this could be cut and sewn together with regular navy jersey to achieve something similar. http://luxire.com/collections/polos/products/tpr-jersey-navy-white-stripes-tpr_navy_white_stripes_jsy_44

    They are unlined. This fabric is quite thick and has a some weight to it and is definitely not see-through.
