    Looking for ideas/advice for a new jacket

    I think it's gonna be killer.

    MIne's the waxed one. I will say that the wax makes that mofo very hot. I've even worn it to movie theaters where it's generally over-air conditioned and sweat in it. Waxed canvas is really limiting IMHO - even more than leather. But it's a perfect weight - comparing to my son's LEVI's and...

    Looking for ideas/advice for a new jacket

    I'm with @ton312 - I kinda hate you in that "I wish I had the sack" to try that way. Def looking forward to pics of this one! ETA?

    I'd have bought some of their workshirts but even the xxl is too small. Asked for larger for a couple years to no avail.

    See a couple Japanese "Souvenir" jackets for sale...

    For me, I could not stomach a repro of this unless it was done by someone like Good Wear, Aero, LW, etc. And even then, probably not. The originals are too cool and basically impossible to find in my size which is good as I'd probably look like a tool :)

    Looking for ideas/advice for a new jacket

    We did the same, @Edward. We had a place (still there) called Jim's Army & Navy. Could get anything for under $10, most for $1-$5. That was our Jr High school uniform - all the stuff we could buy and we'd cut/paint/fringe it all and didn't care. I try to remember such things when the old man...

    They're being repo'd everywhere now for stupid prices...so you know they're desirable.

    I think you get (as well as me) a discount if you use my (or anyone's code) https://www.weargustin.com/i/21096 May as well step up to grab my credit LOL I have to say that I have maybe 6/10 that I really love. If the 18oz Super Heavy ever comes back, get those too. I've been waiting a while...

    New Aero Highwayman, fit advice needed...

    Much better. I tried two different HWM and gave up. That's one of the best fitting HWM I've seen, so keep it. As to the leather, just because it doesn't say FQHH doesn't make it NOT premium/desirable horse - in fact, not at all. Enjoy it and wear it. You've done well.

    Looking for ideas/advice for a new jacket

    My son went thru his "punk" influenced stage as a huge Joe Strummer/Clash nut as well as Ska, etc. He had a legit Schott Perfecto that he ended up painting and putting studs into. I was like WTF but it was his and I figured it best to let him get this out of his system - he was in a new charter...

    They have "campaigns" - sorta mini kick starters. Once they fund, they go into production. Once done, they ship. Only issue is lead time if you NEED 'em now. But they do have an in stock link on top - if you're lucky, you can get something right off in your size. I've got ~10 pairs or so and...

    On this page: https://tarantulavintage.com/collections/clothing I just wish they'd find one in my size. They're amazing, and hard to find.

    These guys make nice jackets and most of the sheep's have pockets. You can often find them elsewhere on sale for much less.Good quality and off the shelf availability. https://www.cockpitusa.com/men/b-3-sheepskin-jackets
