    How patient/disciplined should you be when waiting for a dream jacket to show up for sale?

    I hope I’m not alone with this problem. I know exactly what jacket I want, but it’s not the widely and commonly for sale model that show up in Classified or eBay almost weekly. I even posted a WTB ad! But - what I discovered is - while waiting for that dream jacket to show up for sale (2nd...

    Lost Worlds CHP HorseHide Jacket

    I meant it as a joke - sorry I’m not very good at telling jokes :). I belong to a Japanese jiujitsu club/dojo, and we are all asked to sew some stupid club badges onto our Gi shoulders - where it gets grappled and twisted the most! The stupidity of these traditions… it takes less than 10...

    How heavy is your aero jacket?

    Wow size down 2 sizes?! Is that black HH showing some teacore? Very nice! I’m so torn between buying a aero CHIPS or LW CHP. It is torture! I don’t want to buy both even if I had the money - I put up my HWM for sale to raise funds for this purchase. I now rotate between my natural HH KoTR and...

    How heavy is your aero jacket?

    I so love the TB model! If I were ordering new from aero I’d either pick TB or CHIPS - too bad they don’t make removable mouton collar for CHIPS! And they recently put up the price :(

    Really WTB Lost Worlds 5oz CHP or Ryder 40/42

    If you bought a LW jacket in 5oz weight 5~10 years ago, you can probably sell it for double the price you paid :)

    How heavy is your aero jacket?

    Because I’ve been researching into Cal and LW CHP jackets and how heavy the good ones can be etc - out of curiosity I weighed my two aero jackets: - HWM 40 steerhide 2.5KG - that’s a shocker it’s so light!! I bought this second hand from Japan though. - KoTR 40 HH 3.2KG - about 7.1Ib I think...

    Lost Worlds CHP HorseHide Jacket

    Could send him a few roles of Kevlar thread I buy off eBay ;) - mind you kevlar will just cut through the leather instead of snapping when tension is high!

    Really WTB Lost Worlds 5oz CHP or Ryder 40/42

    I’ve gone crazy over a heavy weight LW Custom CHP or Ryder in 5oz HH - my size is 40-42. Honestly I cannot afford forking out 2-3K on a new order and pay painful import duties to UK customs. Anyone of you lucky guys want to sell your LW CHP or Ryder please PM me - I promise to pay a crazy good...

    Lost Worlds CHP HorseHide Jacket

    Keeping an eye on this interesting topic. I heard LW CHP is the heaviest! I wish a few May pop up in classified here - ordering a brand new one and pay hefty import duties for UK really isn’t great

    What’s a fair price for a good Cal jacket?

    I stumbled upon this https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/custom-lost-worlds-chp-schott-per-2.106352/ What do you guys think LW CHP vs Cal CHP? Or are we talking about a complete different league here?

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Went to a track with kids to ride bicycle on a windy and rainy day. First time I zipped my new aero KoTR all the way to the top! It got proper wet too! This jacket feels sooooo comfortable now.

    What’s a fair price for a good Cal jacket?

    How would you compare the CHP made by Cal, VS Langlitz, VS Vanson Model-E?

    What’s a fair price for a good Cal jacket?

    I took a good look at the eBay pics in my initial post - they do look very much like horsehide to me. What do you guys think?

    What’s a fair price for a good Cal jacket?

    Thank you Ton this is much appreciated. I did look at Al’s as well. The ones I can find on the bay look like cowhide to me. I somehow want horse or even goat. What happened to the 9lb Cal? Guess you sold it! It may fetch twice the price ten years on!
