They are actually Martegani. Definitely closer to Lowndes than Moras as far as the design goes.

I actually have a jacket with some big ass arms being worked on as we speak. The arms are being slimmed down in the biceps area. Should be done tomorrow afternoon so if everything goes as planned I'll snap some pics. I've got my fingers crossed, hoping that it will turn out well because from what I understand it's a ***** to get it right. I wouldn't really worry about it, but this thing has a window pane pattern...

Nope, it's some one off deal I found on ebay a while back and antiqued it a bit on my own with regular shoe polish. The bag is made from full grain leather so it had that suedey look to it, but after I hit it with some cream for colour and wax to make it look more like leather it turned out as you see in the pics. Actually I don't think it looks quite that dark in real life; if you are interested I can snap a few pics for you, hell I may even be able to get a pic of what it looked like before my experiment.

Scattering the thin skinned local elderly who can't handle the stinging critiques of WAYWT...not fast enough whippersnappers, GOTCHA IN THE SHOT!
Agree on the sleeve length issue, but overall looks great

Nice clean look and the bag looks good - would be interested in close ups.

Big A guide to international travel: Fly on empty plane (flying on Easter helps):
069.jpg
Wear fancy watch with frayed OCBD to show that you are all business, and yet have spezz and understand the common man . . . .
072.jpg
Don't forget hat and cord blazer (won't wrinkle!)
076.jpg
Bring fancy headphones and extra juice
074.jpg
Wear comfortable shoes (seriously, my hatred for all things Alden is sated. These are the most comfortable frikkin' "real" shoes in the universe - I'm wearing them almost every day)
073.jpg
If your hat rolls up into a phallic symbol, it won't get crushed. Plus it will excite the flight attendants (although, sometimes the wrong flight attendants)
077.jpg
If you can wrap that rascal, even better
078.jpg
Do not let the fact that you are trapped on an airplane for 8 hours deter you from taking the time-honored SF Bathroom Shot (TM)
075.jpg
No matter how stylish you think you are, try not to be too sad when this guy humbles you by (1) traveling with a hot girl at least 30 years younger than he is; (2) wearing his Ray Bans for the entire flight; and, (3) loudly describing the business class passengers as "pigs," as in (add French accent): "I can fly up there, but I hate to be with those pigs!"
