    Fit check: fcl Mariana jacket

    it's all in matter of personal taste but I think the sleeve is good in this jacket, the body looks a bit boxy and it has full action back, especially when being compared to the slim sleeve, very contrasting look. But it has unique design, and it you give it a chance until the body is draping...

    Fit check on new Aero Maxwell with some mods

    I don't get how a machine mark would bother in few years rather than right away, to me imperfection would be less and less bothering once a lot more characters appear on the entire jacket.

    Fit check on new Aero Maxwell with some mods

    I think the sleeve looks nice, all my jackets have snug armpit, it makes better range of movement in it, I think it is a matter of getting used to.

    Dyeing leather jacket

    honestly I think the jacket looks a bit too boxy for my liking, I don't know if its camera effect being taken too close or what, but this looks like the boxiest Thedis I ever see in this forum

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    the way you wear it fully zipped, I think you don't like how it fits worn open, must be even longer looking and more spreading toward the hem when unzipped, try to put on scarf under it, you don't need to tie it just to stuff the sloping shoulder, then I think the jacket will rest higher and...

    do you dare to commit to wear a single jacket for a month through all your waking hours?

    maybe use the pockets more, when the pockets flaps show some character it will look alot "worn in"

    Help with leather jacket size suggestion for a few brands.

    use denim jacket as a size guide, don't use a a jacket with shoulder pad like a blazer, also because blazer are not fully buttoned, you need a jacket you can button or zip up totally, and not made from material that stretches like sweater, so try denim jacket or canvas jacket, it would be closer...

    Can someone post pictures of a dry (but not cracked) leather jacket that needs conditioner vs one that does not need it?

    sorry I didn't see it earlier it is a jacket, that is the back side of it it has a back pouch I can slide in a back protector or to carry flat items like A4 sketching pad or simple folded thin plastic raincoat, etc.

    Schott 626VN Scuffs

    i personally think leather jacket is allowed to discolor and I won't re dye them but I like the leather surface to be smooth so probably just buff it or put on leather finish cream to smoothen the surface, but if you want to recolor it then better get a black leather dye or bring it to airbrush...
