    I think you are right about the gussets. True S2s could therefore be arout 16" - still small, but doable for more people. Nice jacket!

    Aero Premiere 1930s Half Belt Russet Badalassi- SQUEAKING

    ^^ This. It depends a lot on coefficient of friction (CoF) where leather surfaces rub against each other. If there is a lot of friction, there will be squeaking. That is why surface waxes work, because they have lubricating properties (like on ski bottoms!). They wear out eventually, though, and...

    Silly money can less often mean little money, and that is what I assumed he meant. $300 for this Taubers is an excellent price.

    Despite the tight hem the fit is very good - very little, if any, bunching of material on the back. A winner!

    Washing leather jackets

    No need to use the washing machine. At all. Fill a tub with warm water, add a mild detergent, submerge the jacket, knead gently, repeat if needed. Tons of dirt and dyes will come out. Dry lying flat on some towels, also put towels inside jacket for quicker water absorption. Replace wet towels. I...

    Aero Premiere 1930s Half Belt Russet Badalassi- SQUEAKING

    I have a 60-year old Cal that squeaks like crazy. I figured it might as well, it paid its dues, deserves to squeak if it wants to, lol.

    Washing leather jackets

    All good, just be careful with the radiator. Any hot spot will permanently shrink and deform the leather. Better to dry lying flat on some towels, but it takes 5 days, lol.
