    I ordered a tailored Aeroleather, and I am not happy with the fitting.

    You folks keep mentioning the "beetle-back" - what exactly are you referring to?

    I ordered a tailored Aeroleather, and I am not happy with the fitting.

    That's why I'm wondering whether these pants are very low rise / hanging low / drooping. Highwayman does seem like a style that works strictly only with high to very high rise pants unless you're okay with the belt poking out under the bottom hem all the time.

    I ordered a tailored Aeroleather, and I am not happy with the fitting.

    Usually I determine whether the jacket is too long or not mainly in relation to the jeans. If it goes past the back pockets then it's too long. But in this case the bottom hem is way above the back pockets, even above the yoke in some pictures. So from that perspective it does NOT seem too long...

    New member, guidance needed.

    For reference I'm: 33.5" over belt (wearing the actual belt that I use with jackets). 31" waist around belly button level 36" chest 5'8" height 120-125lbs So far I've found out that I'm closer to a size 34 than a size 36. Closer to XS than to S. With 36" chest I aim for ~19.5"-20" pit-to-pit /...

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

    Hey folks! I recently got a Vanson model B size 34 in Z150 leather. Love how it fits apart from the 63cm length. Not s big fan of nickel hardware either. Thicker leather would be nice too. Found this recently: https://zenmarket.jp/mercariproduct.aspx?itemCode=m51304819951 it was 23000yen or...

    Black rough out jacket recommendations

    Note the difference between rough out, suede and nubuck. Haven't seen a rough out leather jacket yet, only boots.

    FS: Schott 530 Cafe Racer, Brown, Ball & Buck Edition Size M

    Well it's not only the grain pattern (which is more common) but rather the drastically different color/shade. Definitely not saying it's bad or negative, just very unique.

    FS: Schott 530 Cafe Racer, Brown, Ball & Buck Edition Size M

    Interesting panel matching choice of the large main back panels, especially on the bottom.

    Leather Patriot Jacket by Nicks Boots

    Found a Reddit thread with a few more "in the wild" pics and one fit pic down in the comments.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    All these posts about WL boots are making me seriously consider giving them a shot. Seems like I'll be in the UK for a few days in 4-5 months. Could avoid import fees by picking them up locally.. And if they work with CXL and do custom configurations.. Tempting!

    Opinions on the fit of these leather pants?

    Looks a bit tight at the hips? Would like a tiny bit more space at the waist as well personally.

    Bright Shoemakers review

    Same here. I have a pair of very nice and comfy US8 blacksmith boots, but those are only for warm weather and very thin socks. The rest of my Red Wings are 8.5US. How was the 41 compared to RW 8.5US length and width (especially toe box) wise? You already mentioned the low instep.

    Bright Shoemakers review

    Thank you for the review Mark! I've been thinking about these for quite some time, but decided that if I ever go for a more expensive (compared to the usual 100-150eu used Red Wings that I buy) pair of engineers I'd really want ones with an unstructured toe. Good news (to me) - they are working...

    Aero leather help

    Good bet is that our information comes from different moments in time. But I sure hope that you are correct and that I am wrong when if I ever end up going for an Aero Vincent in black CXL!

    Aero leather help

    That is false. The thinner CXL batches were a fluke/mistake. They might have some remaining in stock. Last time I talked to Aero they still had some black and some cherry thinner CXL HH.

    There is no bidding on that site. If your offer was not accepted then it was either a mistake/misunderstanding or the seller is a prick.

    Fit check on my Aero Half Belt 1930s

    Looks very tight around the waist/naval yeah. I don't think it will stretch enough to alleviate the issue - you're much better off (in terms of both health and fit of this jacket) going hard with cardio for a while if that's possible.

    Footwear to go with our jackets

    Some trivia on JL boots - quite a few other companies order boots from JL to their spec and resell them at higher price. Dundas is a good example: https://dundasfootwear.com/pages/type01 Gimme the brown CXL ones...
