    Wearing leather jackets in the rain

    I don't have a specific leather jacket for wet conditions but I find that rain just bounces off Horween Chromeexcel horse hide and steer hide.I hang them to dry in a breeze and never noticed any spotting etc....Not sure if it makes the leather more supple though

    What would you tell your former self about ordering a custom Aero?

    With hindsight I would have done more research into the sleeve and cuff length relationship on a Letterman jacket I had made for me.I can live with it,its a lovely jacket and I got what I asked for.

    Choice of lining for a cross-zip jacket

    I like moleskin as a body lining.I would describe it as somewhere between cotton and wool tartan lining in terms of warmth and is more pleasant to touch in my opinion.Not very bulky either so layering is feasible.I have cotton sleeve linings though sateen is highly thought of.

    Lost Worlds’ founder Stuart interviewed

    Some footage of Greg Field there too! I am confused as to why Stuart agreed to be interviewed by a website devoted to classic men's fashion considering his views on fashion forums and the like.

    Would Someone Please Post Photos of Horween LUX HH in Dark Brown?

    Aero used Jerky HH for the sleeves on this Letterman which might give you an idea-not a great picture though

    Short Light Jacket & Leather Advice: Mulligan or Jean Jacket?

    I do not have any fit pics but I can give you the dimensions of my Mulligan in a nominal size 46 Back 28.5" Shoulder 20" Arm 26.5" and Pit to Pit 25.5"-I don't recall asking for non standard differences to the pattern. It is quite a roomy jacket and the rear hem typically rests on the top of...

    Hanging jackets on a wall.

    I thought of doing something similar once using a single length of chain which would have passed through the ceiling and over the rafters and then use horizontal steel rods set into the chain,,,,,super strong and easily portable/removable but I am sure your setup would look much better.
