RANCOURT & Co. Shoes - Made in Maine
I'm looking at the Hastings boot, although I'm wondering if they'd be willing to do it as a custom option (it looks like bison isn't an option in the custom lineup, although it seems people have had custom bison boots made by Rancourt before) - I'd prefer a lined boot and silver, rather than...- mclim

Thanks. Also, how heavy/coarse is the grain? I've seen some photos where the grain is huge, and others where it's basically a slightly more prominent form of cow grain. Is it just luck of the draw which one you get? Does it vary between colours?- mclim

Leather Quality and Properties

Penfield Kasson parka - sizing
I'm looking to buy a Penfield Kasson jacket and am trying to work out what size to buy. It will be either small or XS - but which one? I'm 177cm (5'10") tall and have a 38-inch chest. Does anyone have an accurate pit-to-pit measurement for either the S or XS? I've seen everything from 19.5"...- mclim
