    My Second Thedi Arrived- Mixed feelings

    Nice jacket but is it what you ordered? The way I look at it these days. If you walked into a store and could buy it off the rack as is or with the specs you originally outlined, would you have bough this one off the rack?

    Brooks leathers

    I don't believe its the original company, someone just bought the name. Although I could be wrong. I remember someone here reporting they weren't too impressed with the new stuff. I'm just waiting on an old Gold Label to arrive myself, great jackets and usually reasonably priced.

    Ah yeah, they are awesome for range of motion, one of the reasons I love this style so much.

    Not sure what a “mulholland sleeve” is. It’s an ELMC Windward.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    After spending too much time in the gym I’m in the bittersweet situation where a lot of my current trim fitting jackets are too tight and will have to be moved on. I’ve decided to go old school and just ordered a nice looking classic gold label brooks.

    Vintage Horsehide Buco J-24

    After scoring an amazing jacket, most people are too busy posting fit pics, not asking how much its actually worth.

    do your view on clothes change after covid?

    I snagged a promotion at work right at the start of Covid so moved from a 5 day a week customer facing role (read: wear a business suit everyday) to a now 3 days a week work from home, 2 days work in the office where NOBODY wears a suit. So I’ve got 14 suits sitting in my closet that rarely if...

    I Need Help! Natural Veg Tanned Jacket

    Personally, if the manufacturer is concerned enough to offer a discount or ask for "approval" I wouldn't take it. Good on them for being so honest and upfront but if they have concerns, especially with this type of leather, I think you'd be better off waiting until they sort out their supply...

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    The Aero Speedway is actually based off a vintage design, I saw an original on eBay once. I'm not 100% sure but I think it's an exact repo (ie: they copied the pattern). Your bet bet is to probably contact them directly about this. I had one years ago but I cant remember if how the neck fit sorry.

    FS: Freewheelers Mulholland, Size 42, Black

    With a jacket that nice and a fit that good you should be considering moving house instead....

    Which leather...

    Go the suede, you just need an interesting lining for when it rains .... but on a serious note, I like the weight and initial feel of the Vicenza but tbh, I don't like the way it ages, its a bit dull compared to how other leathers age imo. Go with something else.

    ELMC Californian -vs- Simmons Bilt Tailgunner?

    While I love my Californian, I don’t think I’d trust it as a riding jacket tbh. It’s a good price on it but there are 2 concerning marks to be seen on the photos. One above the right hand pocket and another on the right hand rear shoulder. I’d be asking for better photos of those 2 marks...
