    Schott 618HH owners in 38 and/or 40? I have some questions!

    1. Sizing is too personal, but if you're body building, you might as well go bigger. You can probably wear either a 38 or 40 now, and whether it works for you or not depends on what you want it to look like and how practical you want it to be with regard to layering under. This is a jacket you...

    Thursday leather jackets

    Well, looking at their website again today, there's no sign of the natural CXL option, and their black jacket is "premium lambskin". ugh. pass.

    Yeah, sounds like poor metallurgy, maybe poor casting or metal injection molding process.

    Thanks. Those look a lot like what I used for replacements.

    This was well before the pandemic outbreak. Globally the death rate is about 7% right now, according to coronavirus.app. As long as businesses can make adjustments to implement effective precautions to enforce distancing recommendations, I don't see a problem with them resuming operations...

    Lee Trevor Trucker 101-J

    That's maybe a possible explanation. I don't know what kind of buckles were used originally, but the loops they ran through were still closed, and I can't imagine anyone would cut the stitching and then re-sew the loops without buckles in place. I did find a fragment of metal in the mailing...

    Saw it listed on ebay from a fellow in Australia. Seller wanted too much for it for what I was willing to pay, but I kept watching it, and after about 6 months he came down slightly, and I was able to talk him down a little further to a more reasonable price, still a bit high, but considering it...

    Aero Thunderbay Café Racer?

    I had one just like it for a while, before selling it on. The jacket itself is a good jacket, and for 180 GBP you probably did just fine, as long as the repairs that you had to make didn't cost too much. I don't know the story behind the label, but I'm sure someone here does. My guess is that...

    Freewheelers Switchyard coat

    You can see some fit pics here. I find it to be a perfect jacket for me. I think it does have a little flare out at the bottom, but I never thought anything of it. It fits perfectly, and looks great on me. Nothing bad to say about it...

    New custom Aero Sheene: Winning!

    It's been good. I have so many jackets that it's difficult to put appreciable wear on any of them, but it's hard to complain about having a problem like that. I have some brown starting to show through at the high points and edges, and sleeve creases to die for. But overall it's still rather...

    I own some their pants and shorts, it's pretty good quality. Sorry to hear they treated you that way. I'd recommend asking your questions before the sale.

    Seen the new BMW horsehide jacket?

    Just because it looks awful new doesn't mean it won't age beautifully. I don't know anything about these, but having seen Schott and Vanson leather new vs broken in and patina'd, it's like night and day.

    Dig it! That one he's wearing looks sharp, too. I like the pocket design on it.

    Fit is exactly what I would want out of this jacket, I think you nailed it. Good going.
