    well I still have my Lou's suit I raced in in the 80's. I can still get into it too but barely. since I've cut out everything related to milk in my diet because of allergies I'm going the other way now.. Lou's still kicking around too. suppose to come sail with me next month. all the best. b bill and darethea

    yes, you've just forgot

    he came to the GNF several times while I sewed there. I introduced him and janet to you at least once. about my size redish hair and whiskers and a grin like a leprechaun . friendly fellow you can't jhelp but like . still pretty active but i think he's been retired from the leather business for like 12-15 yrs? I don't know where the time has gone. I'd like to come do one more GNF for old times sake but people would be expecting me to work . some people ? go figure. hope you and E are well . bill and darethea

    How about some some pics or a link?
    I see your ad, it's the standard services. Am I missing the link?
    I am a US 44 & need a replacement set after throwing it away @ RRR.

    actually

    the symbols were some stuff left over from some movie props . I also made suits and patterns for the johnnie depp movie fear and loathing in las vegas though most of the footage of them wound up on the cutting room floor . I did/do get a lot of postive comment on that suit when I wear it and it's been down the bonneville salt flats several times. thanks for your insight and reply. bill and darethea

    I saw the title and thought "Lewis Leathers - horsehide"

    Still have at least one of those somewhere.
