    Vanson model E 44”

    Of all the times to be up in the air and to miss this (and my size too)! What a jacket

    Brand New Flat Head Self Edge Delraiser Black Shinki, 44

    +1 on the Delraiser - I picked one up here in March and it’s my favourite jacket. If you’re looking at picking up one of these and on the fence - go for it. If the fit works for you then you won’t be disappointed

    Double Helix Works?

    Also… looking back at the photos now I’d say they’re a true representation of the level of shine. It’s much less prevalent than it was and I’d say by the end of this season it’ll be close to where by FH Delraiser is at (and that’s got a few years wear on it before I picked it up).

    Double Helix Works?

    It’s shiny right now … but it’s already starting to die down a bit (and that’s from maybe 20 wears so far). It was super shiny out of the box! Interestingly I found the same to be true of my Addict AD01 - super shiny when new and even with relatively little wear that shine has deadened...

    Double Helix Works?

    I bought this from Burg & Schild rather than directly from DH, so it only took 7 days to arrive (Berlin to Ireland). Re: the sleeve length - it’s actually perfect for me. Hits right where I like the sleeve to land … just on my wrist. The jacket is still breaking in too so the arm rolls will...

    Double Helix Works?

    Apologies for the quick and dodgy shots. Just managed to get time to quickly take a few before going to run errands this morning. I’m a true 44 … carrying more bulk around my waist than I’d like … but for context I’m wearing 36 waist Oni jeans in this photo. I’m 5ft 10 and a little long in...

    Double Helix Works?

    Hey… I’m a 44 in the Deviant. I’ll post fit pics as soon as I can

    Double Helix Works?

    … and I’ve just remembered that I’m due to go to Berlin mid-December so I can call in there in person to try some stuff

    Double Helix Works?

    +1 on Burg & Schild in Berlin - that’s where I picked up the deviant jacket

    Double Helix Works?

    Great fit pics Marc! I’ve been absent from this thread for a while - I changed phone and had a horror of a time re-verifying my account - sorted now. In the meantime I’ve put a good few miles on the DH Deviant. It’s not perfect … and there are still things I prefer about the FH Delraiser over...

    Vanson X Butterscotch X LFNYC Commando 'S' - Sz M (Fits like L)

    Hi Andrew - if you don’t mind me asking, what’s the waist/sweep on this?

    FS: BUCO J65 ORIGINAL 2nd LABEL 1957 HORSEHIDE VINTAGE SIZE 44" - SOLD

    Probably slightly too slim for me unfortunately. Good luck with the sale - that’s a great price for that jacket.

    FS: BUCO J65 ORIGINAL 2nd LABEL 1957 HORSEHIDE VINTAGE SIZE 44" - SOLD

    That is stunning. If you don’t mind me asking … what’s the waist measurement on this?

    Uneven grain/crease on a Horsehide?

    Re: Double Helix … I picked up a Deviant in my size (44) a month or so ago. I’ve a few other jackets - a couple of Aeros, an Addict AD01, Flat Head Delraiser, Vanson C2RN and now this … so I’ve had a few to compare to. I’ll post photos up when I can … but my initial impressions on a month where...

    Anybody have experience with Y’2 leathers?

    Damn that jacket looks great Merv!

    Vanson x Butterscotch LB CR2N

    I’ve one of these in size 44 - I love it, particularly the cut. They do size a little bit bigger than the tag size - mine is a little looser than other size 44 jackets I own … so check the measurements. If I’d known this I’d have sized down for a closer fit. That’s a great price too - I paid...

    FS: The Real McCoy's 30S SPORTS JACKET / COOPER Sz 44

    I 100% second that - a total gent

    FS in EU: *NEW* Double Helix Deviant Horsehide

    I bought one of these recently - managed to get hands on with one and the fit for me (size 44) was perfect. I haven’t seen much comments on here about Double Helix - but as someone who also owns a Flat Head Delraiser I can say that they’re easily in the same league in terms of quality and...

    Vanson x Left Field x Butterscotch Commando S(Fits like M)

    I’ve been looking for one of these for months … but sadly think I’d need a large. Good luck with the sale!

    Re-sizing a leather jacket (Aero Premier Half Belt)

    Yeah. That’s my worry. If it’s not worth it I’d rather keep it - as stupid as that’d be. There is also that lingering fear that the weight may return. I don’t think it will - I’ve lost it through sustainable lifestyle changes and diet (not dieting - I just eat better and less of it). I used to...
