    Vtg. BSA Jacket. Sz.L/XL

    Come on former nostalgic Scouts! It’s one of two jackets I have left from my stockpile of jackets I just never wear that I need to sell. Let’s get this out of the house and make my fiancé happy!

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    yup goes again to the convo we had the other day. People forget or ignore the fact there was a damn world war. They used whatever materials they had and mass produced these things. To the exact level of quality they needed to get the job done no more no less.

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    Horse is fun because of its historical accuracy. It has a tighter fiber weave which helps just a bit on water resistance. But anyone who says it’s different really is wrong. Anyone who’s been around here long enough can tell you that. Honestly it’s more about how it’s tanned and finished. And...

    Deerskin Jacket movie

    It was also on the list of best movies. The same list “Butt Boy” was on. And well I know you saw that trailer haha. “But what jacket is he wearing?”

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Without politics I sometimes look at these things from a subversion standpoint. All a bit punk rock. How a lot of punks hate the military but can often be found in surplus military clothing. It’s cheap, and compared to mall clothes built better. Plus it’s kind of as I said done to subvert the...

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I’ve been blind before so completely possible I’m just a blind fool but: if I order a stock size and it doesn’t fit, does 5* do returns/exchanges on stock sizes?

    Vtg. BSA Jacket. Sz.L/XL

    Here we have a vintage Boy Scouts of America jacket made by Woolrich in a wool/nylon blend. It’s definitely on the larger side for me. Came across it thrifting and was going to layer under it for winter, but it’s just not for me. Has a few dark spots on it, pictured below. These things are all...

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

    I know a few people have gotten things from Bronson around here. Also can’t recall if the thread was about a tanker or B jacket, but one awhile back about that. In any case I’m in the market for a tanker jacket, but need it to be a reasonable price whatever that means haha. Bronson looks to have...

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

    If I ever do two tone I’m going to do white and black or black and pink. Just touches like maybe lapels and epaulets in the white/pink. I’d like to look like those 50s-60s rock n roll/rockabilly two tone jackets. I probably won’t ever get around to it, but if I did, that’s it.

    Modern "Grizzly" Jackets?

    Haha yes I know. But for me that’s just saying what I would do. I could care less about whatever makes anyone else happy. Do you!

    Modern "Grizzly" Jackets?

    I would tuck the shirt in, but otherwise you totally pull it off!! I’m shy cause I’m the opposite. I’m 5’7 and 135lbs. I’m afraid it would look like the jacket is wearing me haha.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Every one in a while you’ll hop on eBay or grailed and see some custom, or Japan market, or Collab you didn’t know about it and drool over it. Love when that happens. Then I hate myself cause I’m poor ha

    Aero worth the wait? Horsehide shootout; Aero vs. Schott

    I think that’s important. All styles really have different feels once worn. Different thickness and drape has different feel. For a first wear if you’ve never worn that style or that leather they can feel tight or loose in different areas but that’s just your mind playing tricks on you, until...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Just to reiterate a bit. Vanson’s customs aren’t cheap but they aren’t outrageous. They are willing to work with you a lot more than other top tier makers. They retain trade/sale value more than other brands. In the sense that they aren’t 2,000 to begin with and loosing 50% right off the bat...

    Can’t say enough for Vanson. As has been said will make you a custom and not charge an arm and a leg. Best value for the price.

    Vanson E or C2? Classic CW(Sold!)

    And I have to say it looks killer on you. Definitely pulling that look off.

    Vanson E or C2? Classic CW(Sold!)

    That’s what I’m saying. It’s so hard to find one that heavy but also so soft. Just a lot of wear and time can make that happen.
