Happy new years from leather supreme

HI everyone, hope you all had a great Christmas! I had a relaxing, quiet day to myself, made some phone calls to family up north. So now it’s almost the new year and I wanted to wish everyone a happy and better 2010. I’m sure most people are going to be glad to see 2009 go away!

I’ll be happy to start a fresh new year that’s for sure. I’ve been working on some new websites and have learned a lot of new things this year. I’m making more links to my website here and soon I’ll change the front page so it looks more like a normal leather jacket website.

Then I’ll add a lot more items in here. Leather saddle bags and all the other motorcycle bags, more leather jackets, gloves, vest and so on. Maybe even add some sunglasses, accessories and other things. My tourist site is getting big too; that’s the one in the left sidebar square banner here.

So anyway I hope the new year is good to you all, and I hope you have fun on New Year’s eve. Please drive carefully, I can’t sell you a leather jacket if your in the hospital! Happy New Year’s!

Those who like fishing or boating should opt for a classy leather fisherman’s cap.

Shark Skin Leather Wallets For Christmas

December 2, 2009 By admin 1 Comment

Shark skin leather wallets for Christmas

Well since it’s the holiday shopping time I figured I’d write some articles about all the different types of leather gifts you can buy for ideas. One cool gift is a shark skin leather wallet. Unlike a lot of exotic leather products, shark skin items are not all that expensive.

You can buy a good quality shark skin leather wallet for around $45.00 and up depending on what type of wallet it is. Yes shark skin is still considered to be leather because it comes from the hide, or skin of the creature. Shark skin leather is very durable and can take a lot of wear.

Yet it’s pretty thin, so it’s great for a wallet. Shark Skin has a rough, textured look to it but feels relatively smooth. Shark skin leather wallets are often dyed white, brown, tan and black. So if your looking for a one of a kind gift for your man, try getting a shark skin wallet for him.

I’m not going to recommend any one brand or place to get a shark skin wallet. Just google it and you’ll find plenty. Just make sure it’s REAL shark skin leather and that it does not say “Imitation shark skin” or man made shark skin leather. Hmm, now I’m thinking of buying myself a shark skin leather wallet!

Lambskin, sheepskin and goatskin leather fashion jackets

November 29, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

mens fashion leather jackets ladies fashion leather jackets

With the Christmas shopping season here many will be out buying a nice looking leather fashion jacket for their lady or man. I often talk about how cowhide and buffalo hide are best for leather motorcycle jackets. That’s true, but not when it comes to fashion leather jackets.

Getting a leather jacket or coat you just want to look good in is much different than getting a motorcycle leather jacket. You don’t care about it protecting you from road rash if you fall off your bike. You want a jacket that looks sharp, feels good and is soft.

So in that case you’ll be more happier with a leather jacket or coat made out of lambskin, sheepskin or goatskin. All of those have more of a fine leather grain that makes them look smoother and polished. It also makes the leather softer as the leather grain is not as thick and rough.

Out of all of them lambskin is the softest, if all have been processed the same way. It’s also the weakest leather. But if the leather jacket is just for showing off and making the chicks at the bar run their hands over it, it’s fine! Sheepskin and goatskin are stronger and about the same in strength.

Now cowhide and pigskin are still great for fashion leather jackets too. They split the hide thinner for those types of jackets and coats. So they also can be very soft and look great. I’m just letting you know that lambskin, sheepskin and goatskin are fine for fashion leather jackets. Happy shopping!

Happy Thanksgiving from Leather Supreme!

Happy Thanksgiving from Leather Supreme

Well it’s Thanksgiving week, time to look around you and be thankful for what you have. I suppose this year a lot of folks don’t have a whole lot to be thankful for. Those who don’t have a job, lost their home or otherwise are in the grip of these hard times are not going to be in the mood for it.

But my favorite saying is, “everything is relative”. Those who think they have it bad and feel down don’t understand that many, many others would love to trade places with you. Everyone always thinks the other guy has it better and your the one missing out.

Trust me, that’s not true. Many would be happy to get a cold bowl of rice on Thanksgiving day, then go back to their tarp hut. So quit whining! Here in the USA many families will be having a traditional Thanksgiving, with a family get together, football on the big screen and lots of beer!

I even made a special Thanksgiving leather jacket, complete with a cool turkey on the back! It should sell fantastic, I’m sure you want one, right? No? You don’t want a special turkey leather jacket for Thanksgiving? Well ok, maybe I’ll re-think it then. Anyway I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and remember, everything is relative, so be thankful for what you DO have.

The Holidays, time for fake faux leather jackets

November 7, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

fake faux leather jackets

Well everyone, we are now in the Holiday season, or almost there. Along with the Holidays comes lots of bright, shiny new products the stores want you to buy. One of the top items you see at the Holidays is lots of fake, or faux leather jackets. Faux is French for fake, and most leather jackets not made of real leather are called faux leather jackets.

So if your wife or girlfriend, or your man if your a gal, is looking forward to a new genuine leather jacket, the last thing you want to do is get a faux leather jacket. Unless she or he does not mind cheap stuff! So with so many out there during the Holidays, how do you tell them apart from real leather jackets?

Well, any and all fake and faux leather jackets are suppose to SAY they are. Normally it says on the tag, or on a tab attached to the jacket that it’s a faux leather jacket, or just faux leather. However they can get sneaky and creative. Some will call it a leather-like jacket. Or maybe leatherette, synthetic leather, man made leather, even designer leather!

They all mean one thing; it’s a fake or faux leather jacket! A faux leather jacket often has a shine to it unlike real leather. It’s often also thinner than real leather, which is why faux leather jackets are so damn cold! Also many faux leather jackets are very smooth, without the leather grain pattern.

However many faux leather items are stamped with a machine that puts a fake leather grain pattern into the material. A real leather jacket should say somewhere on it that it’s made with genuine leather, or that it’s a genuine leather jacket. If it’s quality it should even say what type of hide the leather is, like cowhide or sheepskin.

If your shopping in a good quality leather store you don’t have to worry. They will not carry any faux leather jackets. But even high end department stores like Macy’s carry faux leather jackets, so be warned. Look for a tag that says if it’s a faux leather or genuine leather jacket. If your not sure, keep looking. Girls don’t like real genuine plastic faux leather jackets!!

Happy Halloween from Leather Supreme!

Happy Halloween from leather supreme

Well this is a late post for Halloween, but it’s still before most go trick or treating today so it’s close enough! I’m still up visiting my mom in Vermont so I’m not doing much. It’s cold and windy out with a good chance of rain. If I was going out I’d dress up as a bad-ass biker. Or maybe leather face!

Or I could wear a cheap patchwork leather jacket and go as that guy in “Silence of the lambs”. (you know, he was making a skin form for himself,,patchwork,,, yeah,,,). But since I’m not going anywhere I get to stay in and write this riveting post!

So anyway I hope everyone else is having a good time trick or treating, or going to some crazy Halloween party. Be safe and watch out for monsters and goblins. Happy Halloween from Leather Supreme! (Hey, it rhymes!)

New leather luggage and bags page

October 27, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Mulholland Brothers All Leather Lariat Longhorn

Once again I’ve added a new leather product page in my store. This time It’s quality leather luggage from Luggage Pros, a leader in brand name luggage, bags and briefcases. They have a good selection of leather luggage, from carry-ons, bags, duffels, rolling carts, garment bags and more.

All the leather is made from cowhide, buffalo or pigskin to give you years of use. It’s all top quality, no patchwork, bonded leather or other crap. The leather comes in different colors too, not just black. Plus it’s from top brand names, like Mulholland Brothers, Hartmann and more.

The leather has been treated and sealed, so you don’t have to do a thing with it once you get it. Just condition and seal it once a year or so depending on how often you use it. I highly recommend any leather products from Luggage Pros. They only carry top quality items. So check my new leather luggage page out and tell me what you think!
